World class speakers will be discussing topics, such as the trustworthiness of Scripture, God’s justice for all, evidence for the crucifixion and resurrection, gender and sexuality, decolonizing the Christian mind, and wokeness and happiness, which will complement imaginative expressions of faith by brilliant Christian artists.

Your ticket to the conference will cover the fee to the Tabernacle Experience at CBC from March 16th thru 21st. One step inside the Tabernacle Courtyard will transport you into Old Testament times. You will experience a day in the life of a priest as you engage in the duties and rituals within the Tabernacle.

Also, CBC will be providing free childcare (K-5th grade) both days, Friday and Saturday. But Friday, CBC is offering Cold-case Christianity, which will inspire your kids to seek truth, to love Jesus, to have a new fascination with the Bible, and to become the kinds of truth detectives who can make a difference in our world.
