The echoes of Wittenberg still resonate today. Five hundred years after the Reformation, the foundational truths that transformed Christianity continue to speak with power and relevance to our contemporary world. This year's Grace and Truth Conference brings together exceptional speakers who will unpack these timeless principles, showing how the Five Solas remain not just historical artifacts, but living truths that can transform hearts, strengthen faith, and guide our witness in a skeptical age.
Phillip Scheepers
Phillip Scheepers opens our conference with two compelling sessions that demonstrate the enduring power of the Solas. In "The Story of the 'Solas': From Wittenberg to the World," he traces the remarkable journey of these Reformation principles from Luther's time to our own, revealing how they've shaped Protestant Christianity across the centuries. But Scheepers won't leave these truths in the history books—his second session, "Gospel Signposts: Using the Solas in Gospel Conversations," equips us with practical tools for evangelism, showing how these theological foundations can guide our conversations with skeptics, seekers, and critics.
Why attend? Discover how ancient truths can address modern questions and learn to wield the Solas as powerful instruments for sharing the gospel in everyday conversations.
Winston Bosch
Winston Bosch brings a refreshing perspective that will encourage struggling believers and challenge perfectionist tendencies alike. In "Weak Faith in a Strong God," he dismantles the pressure to manufacture "strong enough" faith, redirecting our focus to the mighty Savior who receives even trembling trust. His companion message, "What's so Amazing about Grace?" takes us on a journey through Romans to explore the "super-abounding" nature of God's grace—a grace so magnificent we consistently underestimate its power.
Why attend? Find freedom from faith anxiety and discover how God's amazing grace addresses everything from legalism to lawlessness, offering hope for every believer who feels their faith isn't "good enough."
Tim Challies
Tim Challies delivers two messages that will lift our eyes to the incomparable glory of Jesus Christ. "The Glory of Christ" draws from Revelation 4-5 to showcase Jesus as the only One worthy of our worship—the unique God-man who alone could redeem us from sin's slavery. In "God's Glory and My Good," Challies tackles one of Christianity's most challenging promises: that God sovereignly works all things for our good, even in the midst of trials and heartbreak.
Why attend? Gain a fresh vision of Christ's supremacy and learn to trust God's sovereignty even when circumstances seem to contradict His goodness.
Mikey Lynch
Mikey Lynch addresses two of the most pressing challenges facing the modern church. "The Sufficiency of Scripture: Authority in a Postmodern World" navigates the treacherous waters of relativism, showing how we can acknowledge human limitations while still affirming objective truth found in God's Word. His second session, "The Five Solas and Reformed Ecclesiology," brings these theological truths home to church life, asking the vital question: How should the gospel of grace shape the way we do church?
Why attend? Equip yourself to defend Scripture's authority against postmodern challenges and discover how gospel truths should transform church practices and structures.
Reuben Caphil
Reuben Caphil will speak on Thursday night to the youth with a powerful reminder that God's grace transcends generational boundaries. "Grace for the Struggling Teen: How God's Grace Changes Everything" demonstrates how the gospel speaks to teenagers across every social category—from high achievers to misfits, from addicts to heroes. When young people grasp that salvation is a free gift that cannot be earned or lost, it transforms everything.
Why attend? Whether you work with youth, parent teenagers, or simply want to see how the gospel applies across generations, this session will show you how grace really does change everything.
