The Ryan Center 2011 Bible study conference, “Read the Bible for Life,” is rapidly approaching! We are still well ahead of the deadline and registration is around 170. The reduced rate hotel rooms sold out, but we have been able to secure a few more with the lowered rate through tomorrow, March 23 (details here, under Lodging).

The conference will be held April 15-16 and David Platt will be the plenary speaker, addressing the theme of biblical literacy in the church.  The conference shares the name of the new book and curriculum written by George Guthrie. George will also be leading breakout sessions to train leaders for using the video curriculum in small groups.

Michael Card will be singing and leading a breakout session.  Several faculty members from Union’s School of Theology and Missions will also be leading breakout sessions on various aspects of Bible study.

This will be a great opportunity for training and encouragement for pastors, Bible study leaders, Sunday School teachers and anyone who wants to enhance their own reading of the scriptures.
