Agenda for Saturday 12th August

This agenda serves as guidance and is not final

Breakfast

Full English and continental breakfast buffet is served
8:00AM

Session 1 Inspired, Infallible, Inerrant

A plenary session. With modernism's continued critique of Biblical veracity, many believers are falling victims to their narratives. The authority and credibility of the Bible must not be merely assumed among believers. This session discusses the reason these issues matter, that the credibility of the Scriptures might be forever settled in the mind of all believers [ Tobi Ipaye ]
9:00AM

Session 2 This Gospel

What this gospel is, and what this gospel does to the man and woman who receives it. This session seeks to communicate and encourage more radical, evangelical Christian engagement in a secular society [ Mayowa Durotola ]
11:00AM

Session 3 Work, Wealth and the Gospel

What does the Gospel-shaped life look like within our so-called 'secular' vocations and in the often hostile and difficult workplace? Is there a Biblical theology on work and wealth? This session seeks to discuss working [and earning money] for the glory of God [ Ire Ogunsina ]
12:00PM

Lunch

Session 4 A long line of Godly men

Christian history is replete with Godly men and women who have taught and lived lives which exuded and echoed the gospel. Contemporary Christianity know little and think little of these brothers and sister. This session looks more into this [ Ire Ogunsina ].
The session may run in tandem with the breakout sessions for kids and teenagers
