Tell Me Conference is geared towards bringing together faithful biblical teaching with practical action. This conference aims to provide a sound theological framework for evangelism, as well as offering opportunities for fellowship and networking together. Our hope is to encourage the gospel to the forefront of Christian living by making this conference as accessible as possible. Therefore this is a free conference and is open to anyone (families are warmly welcomed) who would like to develop in both sharing the gospel and biblical apologetics. Come and be encouraged, as God equips us to be more effective in our daily lives.

Topics:

  • If I could do it again (Roger Spicer). Sage evangelism advice to a younger me.
  • The doctrine of the local church (Matthew Johnston). The responsibility of evangelists to be under the authority of a local church, as well as the responsibility of local churches to support local evangelists.
  • Q&A with James White of Alpha and Omega Ministries (Pre-recorded – exclusive to Tell Me Conference.)
