Main Session: Allen Parr - 7 Reasons Why Christianity is True
In a culture where many people believe all religions lead to the same destination, how can we know if Christianity is actually true? In this engaging and thought-provoking session, Allen Parr explores the credibility of the Christian faith and examines whether Jesus truly stands apart from every other religious leader in history. Through clear reasoning, compelling evidence, and biblical insight, this talk will challenge common assumptions and provide a fresh perspective on one of life’s most important questions. Whether you are curious, skeptical, or already a believer, you will walk away with greater clarity and confidence about why Christianity uniquely claims to be the truth.

Living With Christ's Freedom in a Porn-Saturated World - Nathan Sutherland
Pornography is a conversation we need for ourselves, and for our kids. In Christ we are new creations, and we live in bodies that have old habits. This conversation addresses the Biblical truths, scientific realities, and spiritual practices we need to live out the freedom we have in Christ.
TBD - Dr. Braxton Hunter
Creating for Christ - Jon McCray (WhaddoYouMeme)
How Christians can create content on social media to compete in "the algorithm age".
Breakout Sessions #3
How to Help Those Dealing with Doubt - Allen Parr
Doubt is something nearly every believer experiences at some point in their faith journey, yet many Christians feel ashamed to talk about it. In this encouraging and practical session, Allen Parr addresses how believers can navigate seasons of doubt without losing their faith. Rather than seeing doubt as the end of belief, this talk shows how it can actually become a pathway to deeper conviction and spiritual growth. Attendees will gain biblical insight, practical guidance, and helpful tools for processing their own questions while also learning how to support others who may be struggling with doubts about Christianity.
Love God. Use Tech. (not the other way around) - Nathan Sutherland
Learn to identify the two types of tech, assess tech health, and use all the tech that makes us look more like Jesus.
Why Trust the New Testament? - Dr. Mike Licona
Dr. Licona explains why we can trust the New Testament: we have so many ancient copies that we can be confident today’s text is basically what the authors originally wrote. He also shows how a few non-Christian writers from the ancient world mention things that line up with parts of the New Testament story about Jesus. Finally, he describes how early Christians carefully chose which books truly belonged in the New Testament, rather than just picking favorites.
Breakout Sessions #4
TBD - Dr. Chip Bennett
The ABCs of Defending the Gospels - Dr. Mike Licona
Having positive evidence for trusting the Gospels is not enough. Seekers and skeptics alike have questions and objections. And that’s okay. What are the most common objections to the Gospels’ reliability and do they have solid answers? Dr. Licona takes on the top three objections head-on and shows how each can be thoughtfully addressed.
