The conference is open to all involved in pastoral and preaching ministry and their wives, as well as all men and women involved in Christian ministry and leadership. The Second London Baptist Confession of Faith of 1689 is the theological basis of the conference.
As well as the formal sessions, the conference provides plenty of time for informal fellowship and relaxation. There will be a bookstall, as well as exhibition stands run by partner organisations seeking to proclaim the gospel and extend the kingdom of Christ across the world.
Dr Peter J. Williams
Our main speaker will be Dr Peter J. Williams, the Principal and CEO of Tyndale House, Cambridge. Peter was educated at the University of Cambridge, where he received his MA, MPhil, and PhD in the study of ancient languages related to the Bible. He is a member of the Translation Oversight Committee of the English Standard Version. His books include Can We Trust the Gospels? (Crossway, 2018) and The Surprising Genius of Jesus: What the Gospels Reveal about the Greatest Teacher (Crossway, 2023). Peter will bring three sessions on the reliability of the Old Testament.
Elly Achok Olare
Elly Achok Olare is a pastor in Kenya. He preached and taught the prosperity gospel for 17 years before God opened his eyes to sound biblical doctrine. He regularly holds Reformed conferences in Kenya and founded the Wisdom Training Centre there to teach biblical truth and counter the errors of the prosperity gospel.
