“As
a bi-vocational pastor it is especially important to keep the saw
sharpened. The Ryan Center for Biblical Studies Conference gave me
exposure to methods of bible study and material from leading theological
scholars. The insights were fresh and the fellowship was special.
Attending last year's conference led me to enroll in Union University’s
Master of Christian Studies Program which has benefited my ministry work
tremendously. So whether you are looking for something to help develop
your knowledge base or if you need a time of spiritual renewal I am sure
you will find something that will appeal to you at the Ryan Center for
Biblical Studies Conference.”

Do you or those in your church struggle with seeing how the Old
Testament applies to life today? Commonly Christians find themselves
frustrated in the effort to see how the Old Testament connects to the
New Testament, to understand how it points to Christ, and even to know
what it means for everyday living. What does salvation by grace look
like in the Old Testament? How do we apply the Old Testament as
Christians today? How do the Old and New Testaments fit together? How
does the Old Testament point to Christ? These questions and more will be
addressed at the Ryan Center’s third bi-annual conference “One Bible,
One Gospel: Exploring the Unity of Scripture.”
We are blessed to have an amazing group of Bible teachers with us
this year. It will be an excellent opportunity for training pastors,
Sunday school teachers, Bible study leaders and anyone who wants to read
the Bible well. Our desire is to provide tools that might enhance the
reading and studying of the Bible in the churches that we might know
more of its life-giving power and see a renewal among us.
