While we were unable to go to conference this year, we heard great things about how students' lives were changed at the conference. Our theme was "free" and most of the talks centered around the freedom that comes in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. One of the big things that came from conference this year was vulnerability. After hearing many of the talks and spending time with other staff and students, the students felt much freedom in sharing their sin and weaknesses with other with the hope of being freed from those things. Many realized that you dont have to get your life together before coming to Christ daily, but we are to come to Him in need of grace and forgiveness.
There were also many talks on discipleship and multiplying your life through ministry. A lot of students began to catch more of a vision for being involved in discipleship relationships. One student from Northwestern named Rob said, "I feel like I cannot wait any longer. I want intentional discipleship. When can I grow together with a group of men?" This is an amazing work of God that he could say this after becoming a Christian just a few months ago.
