The theme for this first annual conference is: Leading Through the Next Generation. It is imperative that as we seek to fulfill the Great Commission, we not only reach this generation for Christ but that we also bring them into the church, teach them to observe all things, and prepare them to repeat the process.”And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” (Matthew 28:18-20). We must either lead with purpose or leave the Great Commission unfulfilled.
