Boot Camp | Seattle
Conference is FULL
Resurgence and Acts 29 are excited to host a premiere conference on preaching and church planting. Mars Hill Church in Seattle, Washington will be hosting this Boot Camp in connection with the National Resurgence Conference. The Acts 29 Boot Camp is considered by many to be one of the best available. It is required for Acts 29 applicants, but is open to anyone. Are you considering planting a church? Are you ready? The Acts 29 Boot Camp can help make the difference between success and casualty. The Resurgence conference will take a hard look at the text and context both in the word of God and in the world today. The desire to be faithful to the scriptures and how the gospel is proclaimed in a lost and broken culture is paramount now, more than ever. Understanding the text of Scripture and the context in which we live are essential in preaching the gospel today. This is true whether you are a preaching pastor or a Christian that wants to reach your co-worker/neighbor.
Speakers: Joining us for the Acts 29 Boot Camp and the Resurgence Conference will be: Dr. John Piper, author and pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, MN; Mark Driscoll, author and pastor of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, WA and president of Acts 29; Matt Chandler pastor of The Village Church in Dallas, TX and south central regional coordinator for Acts 29; Jim Gilmore author and business consultant with expertise on studying the culture and trends of today, Scott Thomas, Director of Acts 29 Network, Jeff Vanderstelt, pastor of Soma in Tacoma, WA and northwest regional coordinator for Acts 29.
Location: Mars Hill Church Ballard Campus, 1401 Leary Way Seattle, WA 98107
Fees: Registration $99 per individual, Assessment $99 per couple
