It's been three months since my mom passed. And three minutes since I last thought about her. My apologies for not talking more about this. I've avoided the subject because it's complicated. So when my friend told me how this conference explains complicated matters simply, I was intrigued.
My buddy Len told me about this event. If you ever have a recommendation for an event, let us know – we listen. What I've gathered is that the value of this Remind Conference comes from it’s lineup. The speakers are decorated with doctorates. These guys and gals have more degrees than Fahrenheit. What’s most attractive from my research is the speakers’ captivation. Usually the highly intelligent are boring – or confusing. I've witnessed the opposite from their YouTube talks. The Q&A segments are fascinating.
Below is the itinerary for this two-day event:
FRIDAY AUG 3 5:30 p.m. Doors Open 6:30 Welcome 6:45–7:10 Musical guest Lecrae 7:10–7:45 Abdu Murray: Challenging the Answers: Is Science the Enemy of Faith? 7:45–8:00 Break 8:00–8:35 Vince Vitale: How Can I Know God Exists? 8:35–8:40 Games and giveaways 8:40–9:00 Musical guest Lecrae 9:00–9:30 Q&A Panel Abdu, Vince, and Lecrae 9:30 p.m. Dismiss SATURDAY AUG 4 8:30 a.m. Doors Open 9:10–9:30 Welcome 9:30–10:10 Ravi Zacharias: Questionable Answers 10:10–10:15 Break 10:15–10:45 Interview with Ravi and Lecrae 10:45–10:55 Games and giveaways 10:55–11:30 Jo Vitale: Is The Bible Good News for Women? 11:30 a.m.–12:05 p.m. Sam Allberry: Does God Care Who I Sleep With? 12:05–1:00 Lunch 1:00–1:10 Games and giveaways 1:10–1:45 Session with Vince Vitale 1:45–2:30 Q&A Breakout 1 2:30–3:20 Q&A Breakout 2 3:20–3:30 Games and giveaways 3:30–3:50 Abdu Murray: Answering the Challenge: Can We Bring Clarity to a Culture of Confusion? 3:50 p.m. Dismiss
Please know that these speakers’ worldview is Christian. But, that wasn’t always so. I heard their bios and each of them reportedly changed their minds due to evidence. That’s interesting to me. Evidence is the number one thing we request. My generation is called Generation Y for a reason. We ask why so much because we want facts. If this Remind Conference claims to have them, I’m making the drive. I figure you would too. One thing my mom always taught me was to extend an invite. People don’t like to feel obligated. But they do like to feel invited. This here is simply an opportunity to hear a team of geniuses talk faith. I say we make a party out of it.
More info about this conference can be found here. This event costs 49 if you pay here online. If you’re interested in coming along, email us at goNOSOTROS@gmail.com. I’ll respond with necessary details. If you need a ride we can carpool. If you want to drive yourself, that’s okay too.
