God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him.
Since Pastor John Piper penned these words 50 years ago, untold lives have been transformed by the God-centeredness of God and our happiness in him.
We believe that it is more important than ever that we turn our attention Godward and set our minds on things above. More than that, we believe that the Godward life must be handed down from generation to generation.
This year’s theme:
knowing jesus
At the heart of the Christian faith is a vital relationship with Jesus Christ, the Son of God, our Savior, Lord, and Treasure. He is the Bread of Life, who satisfies our hungry hearts. He is the life-giving vine, and we the branches. He is the good shepherd, and we love to hear his voice. Our Lord came that we might have abundant life, fullness of joy, and rest for our souls. It is not enough to know about Jesus Christ; we want to know Him, to enjoy deep and lasting communion with our Savior. Join the teachers of Bethlehem College and Seminary, Desiring God, and other friends as we celebrate the truth that God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.
The Generations, Together
This year’s gathering will feature interactive workshops on a variety of topics. We will have sessions on theology, engaging culture, history, missions, education, ministry, and more! Bethlehem faculty will lead extended workshops that mine the treasures of God’s word and that wrestle with great books. We will have workshops for aspiring writers, for pastors and preachers, and for teachers and educators (whether traditional school or homeschool).
And all of it will be oriented by God-centered worship, Christ-exalting teaching, and Spirit-bound fellowship and camaraderie in the gospel.
