About The Event

The Life-Changing Gospel

SAVE THE DATE (June 27-30, 2024) FOR THIS CONFERENCE ... PASTORS, COUNSELORS, CHRISTIANS AND ALL ARE WELCOME.

Conference is based on:

1 Thessalonians 1:5 [ERV] When we brought the Good News to you, we came with more than words. We brought that Good News with power, with the Holy Spirit, and with the sure knowledge that it was true. Also you know how we lived when we were with you. We lived that way to help you.

and

Romans 1:16 [ERV] I am proud of the Good News, because it is the power God uses to save everyone who believes—to save the Jews first, and now to save those who are not Jews.

Today, many Christians are wondering how to share the Good News with others. The Bible teaches that God does not change. However, our lives do change. By the Holy Spirit, God can help you in this changing world. Our Bible is sufficient to enable us to share the Good News with others! Come join us to learn more...

Plenary Speakers include:

  • Pastor Kenton Hoxie
  • Rev. Jari Saavalainen
  • Dr. Toby Welch
  • Rev. Kevin Hamilton
  • And more speakers will be announced soon...

Please check often. The schedule will be updated as conference dates draw nearer.

F.A.Q

  • The DBC24 Conference will provide training to equip Christians to minister God's Word faithfully in American Sign Language (ASL). Participants will learn how to help people with different problems, such as marriage conflicts, parenting issues, addictions, mental health struggles, fear, anger, grief, depression, anxiety, etc.

    This event will be centered on the Word of God and will include interactive discussion groups to learn best practices from each other. Fellowship and friendships will occur because the event is designed to encourage one anothering. Think of this as a celebration of Christ’s body around the world.

  • Yes! All believers are called to lead the world not follow it. Become a more effective follower and committed follower of Christ at this conference.

  • Everyone is welcome!!! This conference is not for counselors only. It will benefit everyone and it will help believers, pastors, and everyone who is interested in learning the Bible.

  • Our dress is casual, comfortable, and modest.

  • Meals are NOT provided. We do have scheduled time between speakers for you to get something to eat. More information will be shared when you check in on June 27, 2024.

  • Please visit the Registration Page . At this time, online purchases are not available on the website.

    Register the old fashioned way by printing the Registration Form and mailing it to us.

    You may send us the PDF document by email. Before you do that, please contact us using the phone number or email found on the Registration Form page, so we can ensure your registration goes through correctly. Also, please note: the cost will change based on the postmark or the purchase date.

  • Most workshops are appropriate for any age, because they present God's Word. Children and adults both have the same struggles. We believe it is better that children are included with their parents or guardian(s). In this way, families can learn together.

    As for the prices, children under age of 18 and under are free, but parents need to figure out how to best handle their children. We think all of the workshops are appropriate for children in age range of 13 to 18. We would encourate parents to go to workshops with their children. These workshops could help parents communicate about various of topics with their children. The conference will not provide any childcare services or special services for children.

    During the conference, parents may ask speakers if their workshops are appropriate for their children.

  • Conference check-in begins at 4:00 PM (EST) on June 27. Please come back, we will share more information about check-in soon.
