Reaching the Heart Conference

Jesus has charged every member of His church with speaking God’s truth in love

to each other. Care and discipleship aren’t just specialties for pastors. They’re for

the whole church. “Regular” Christians have a call and a mission to help one another

through sin and suffering.

By God’s grace, you’ll walk away from this conference with fresh passion for the

supremacy of God’s Word, fresh love and compassion for people, and fresh insight

into how to bring the two together in a local church context.

WHEN: August 14-15

WHERE: New Life Bible Fellowship Church, 2960 W. Philadelphia Ave., Oley, PA

COST: $40 / individual | $50 / couple - Early-bird pricing: By June 30, $20 off | By July 18, $10 off (Includes lunch and access to book tables)
