Conference Review

On September 24-26, 2004, at the Minneapolis Convention Center, we tasted afresh the goodness and mercy of the Lord. In those three days, Desiring God hosted almost 2000 lovers of Christ from around the world who hungered for a deeper understanding of the supremacy of Christ and the gift of sexuality. The weekend proved to be a time of refreshment, encouragement, equipping, and strengthening. Through the God-centered corporate worship, ministry of the Word, and biblical fellowship, the Lord got glory for his name as he lavished his grace upon us. Be encouraged by comments from some of the conference attendees:

"It was the most God-exalting, spirit lifting and theologically sound conference we have ever attended. To God be the Glory for His mercy.”

“My wife and I wanted to say thank you for your conference. The preaching was very Christ centered and edifying.  We saw God lifted up and magnified and came away changed.”

“We were broken and convicted; challenged and comforted. God met us in a powerful way as he ministered the benefits of the Cross to our souls.”

It was a great privilege and deep joy to stand alongside so many God-besotted volunteers who served with humility, patience, and in the strength which God supplied. We could not have held the conference without them. May God, through their joyful, selfless labors of love, glorify his goodness and magnify his mercy to all who attended.
