ROOTED IN THE WORD
Women’s Conference
Encouraging Women To Dig Deeper Into Their Faith
About the Conference
The Word of God is described as light to our path. Just as light is needed to safely navigate a path in the dark, God’s Word is needed to illuminate the path we are called to walk in this world. We are called to walk in Him and be rooted and built up in Christ. Living in a fallen world, our enemy is at work trying to destroy God’s created order by attacking our beliefs, our families and the validity of God’s truth contained in the Bible. We are called to stand firm, take up the armor of God and fight. The only way to effectively do this, is by being intentional and prioritizing our walk with the Lord, combating the lies of the enemy with God’s truth. This conference will help women live their lives rooted in Christ. It will also equip women to influence a rising generation. Because the only way to truly live, is to be “ROOTED IN THE WORD”.

Breakout Session: Deconstructing Faith: A Gospel Response
Deconstructing faith. How do we view and respond to this process described as the deconstruction of faith? The answer must not first be based on fear or experience or culture. Rather, we must view this process through a biblical lens, a lens that sharpens our theological vision of the Gospel. In this breakout session we will see how a right theology of the Gospel provides the needed response and support to those in the process of deconstructing their faith.
