Founders Conference ‘07

Posted by Joe Thorn - 12/06/07

People have been asking, so let me put it out there. I am registered for the 2007 Founders Conference, “God’s Truth Abideth Still: Confronting Postmodernism” (June 26-29th). I’d prefer something more than “confronting” because postmodernism is not only something to confront. As a culture and worldview it must be redemptively engaged which means confronting and embracing it at different points (I am nit-picking). Regardless of the title, I am sure this will be a fantastic conference. David Wells is the keynote speaker. Other speakers are Tom Nettles, Tom Ascol, Roy Hargrave, Raymond Perron, and Bill Ascol. This is a great mix of pastors, professors and a church planter - all of which have a heart for God’s church and world. And you cannot beat the price! Register before June 15th and get in for $60 if you are a pastor, missionary, teacher or student. $80 dollars for everyone else. If you are going to be there and want to hang out let me know.

FYI: Some have drawn a caricature of the “Founders guys” which simply does not reflect the truth. Both the leadership of Founders and the people I have met at the conferences are humble, gracious and very encouraging. If you can make it, it’s well worth it.

  1. Yeah, I would go. But my wife is having BRAIN SURGERY. This post is insensitive to people who are currently planning surgery for the end of June. I suggest you take it down and repent.

  2. LOL. Look, just because you get called out by all kinds of wackos on your blog, don’t bring that nonsense over here! Besides, if you think this is insensitive, I can’t imagine what you think of the jokes I made about you and your wife earlier today! Well, I did tell them you you directly so I guess I can imagine. :)
