Friday Night Talk
Saturday Night Talk
Kristina and I (Beau) had the privilege of speaking at National Greek Conference a few weeks ago. 650 students from 43 campuses showed up! We saw God move powerfully that weekend as hundreds stood to come home to the Father. Ultimately 50 students at the Indianapolis conference marked on their card that they were going to start following Jesus!
We preached three talks, Friday & Saturday night and then again Sunday morning. Every talk we did together and it was really fun! Friday night, we spoke out of John 2, Jesus turning water into wine, and we challenged students to “Be open to God, and he will reveal himself to you this weekend” You can watch Friday’s talk here. Saturday night, we spoke on Luke 15 and the two sons that are distant from the father. One son is distant because of his badness (the younger son) and the older son is distant because of his goodness (working to be moral). Both are missing the fathers heart and both need to come home into relationship. You can watch Saturday’s talk here. Sunday we stayed in Luke 15 and talked about the servants in the passage and how they understood the heart of the Father and celebration. We talked about how we need to be a community back on campus that can communicate the fathers heart to others and celebrate the things and people he celebrates. Most importantly, lost people coming home!
During the day on Saturday, students were in concentrations led by other staff from around the country. Concentrations were for various types of students. Some were for seekers and skeptics, while others were for Christians who are stuck in bad life style choices. There is even a concentration for leaders who want to stand out in their house for Christ and they learn to lead bible studies and ministry right in the fraternity and sorority.
Kristina did all this while being 36 weeks pregnant and she did an awesome Job. We both are surprised she made it, but God really sustained her through this. We had a ton of fun, and more importantly, God used us mightily that weekend as well as all the staff and volunteers who led at the conference. Thank you so much for the prayers!
