The conference will be March 25-27, 2014 at the Wonderland Conference Center, Sharon, MA
The Church has been entrusted with a treasure and a task.

Women Ministering in the Tent
Jesus and his Apostles realized the important role women should play in serving the people of God
Let us worship more like Adam, Moses, Jesus and Paul. May we be strong men who lead with integrity. May we play the role of father, husband, elder and deacon well. But may we also be strong men who are wise men. May we surround ourselves with godly, strong feminine leaders. For according to Scripture,... Continue Reading

King University, Bristol, Va., President Still in Charge After Two-thirds of Faculty Vote No-Confidence
30 faculty members voted that they had confidence in Jordan, 62 said they had no confidence and nine abstained from voting
The no-confidence vote by the faculty holds no sway over the president’s employment and cannot force the school’s board of trustees to take action. Voting members, however, said that as long as Jordan remains president, they will continue efforts to have him removed. A day after nearly two-thirds of King University’s faculty members voted...

Will Counseling Make a Church Turn Inward?
A local church that takes counseling seriously can do a good job of reaching non-believers as well as building community
When a church counsels, it is saying more than the Bible is true; it is saying that the God of the Bible is real. He comes to change lives, families, communities, cultures and the entire cosmos. You can actually see those changes! When a church counsels, it is engaging in one of the most important... Continue Reading
Calvinism in Scotland
The belief that until very recently Scotland was a Calvinist nation is pure myth
Part of the reason is that Scotland sees its remaining Calvinist bodies through magnifying-glasses. We cannot shake off our fascination with the Free Church and the Free Presbyterian Church. They are part-bogeymen, part scarecrow, part dinosaur and part Super Ego. Between them they receive as much media coverage as the Church of England, yet the... Continue Reading
Do We Really Need More Worship Songs?
Yes, we do need more worship songs – but with some rather large caveats
I have to confess that a significant minority of the new songs I come across each year on various websites, events and albums fail to do any of the above. They are little more than a re-ordering of stock phrases in circulation among existing songs, just married to a new tune. It feels to me... Continue Reading
A Conservative Christian Declaration: Article 2: On the Whole Counsel of God
A series explaining the articles of “A Conservative Christian Declaration”
While affirming the place of the gospel as the boundary of fellowship, we want to insist that the whole counsel of God is the center of fellowship, and that pursuit of this center is of irreplaceably great value for worship, fellowship, and devotion. Further, this center is not merely doctrinal: the center of Christianity includes... Continue Reading
