BALL – Understanding the urgency to reach the culture with the Gospel, organizers of this year’s Pastor’s Conference are hoping to equip participants with tools needed to assist in this spiritual battle.
Scheduled Nov. 13-14 at Kingsville Baptist Church, the annual gathering’s theme is “Urgency,” based on Romans 13:11.
“With the state of affairs in our nation, now more than ever, we need a sense of urgency as it relates to personal evangelism, the preaching of the gospel, and equipping the saints,” said Pastors Conference President Nathan Davis. “We are really looking forward to what God is going to do this year.
“I believe we have an all-star lineup with great preaching and singing,” said Davis, pastor of First Baptist Church in Coushatta. “Be praying for the conference and encourage people to come with a sense of ‘urgency.’ Please make plans to attend because this is your Pastors Conference. We are expecting God to do amazing things this year. Don’t miss out.”
The conference will begin at 6:00 p.m. on Nov. 13 with music led by Todd DuBose, Minister of Music at First Baptist Church in Minden, with area choirs participating.
Among those scheduled to preach are David Allen, Dean of the School of Preaching at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary; James Merritt, lead pastor of Cross Pointe Church in the Atlanta, Ga., metro area; Johnny Hunt, pastor of First Baptist Church in Woodstock, Ga.; Nick Floyd, teaching pastor at Cross Church in Fayetteville, Ark. and son of past Southern Baptist Convention President Ronnie Floyd; and George Ross, SEND North America city coordinator for New Orleans.
In addition to the preaching, the conference will feature a number of book giveaways and a Timothy+Barnabas retreat registration giveaway.
Spouses of pastors will have the opportunity to attend a Minister’s Wives lunch featuring Meredith Floyd, wife of Nick Floyd.
“Be looking for details soon,” said Davis. “The Pastor’s Conference is free to attend.”
