The conference, as a whole, was one of the best that I have been to. The theme was "Jesus", which sounded a bit trite at the beginning. It just seemed so... typical for a Christian conference. However, my opinion of the theme quickly changed under the faithful preaching and direction of the conference. When I think back upon my time there, there was no other theme that could have been as appropriate. I was amazed at how each and every message just blossomed with gospel truth and drew me closer and closer to my savior, Jesus.
As always, Enfield was amazing. For those of you who are unaware, Enfield is the band that usually plays at the Resolved Conference. And as per usual, they were superb. All the songs were crafted to fix perfectly with the messages - mostly hymns. I was totally blessed by their music ministry and the gospel truth that was pouring out of the lyrics.
But I have to say, my favorite message was the last one given by Al Mohler. He spoke about Christ as king. You can download the sermon here. In fact, you can download the entirety of the messages at: www.resolved.org
(I highly recommend it)
I also purchased John Piper's new book, "A Sweet and Bitter Providence". It focuses on the Biblical book of Ruth. I won't go too much into detail here, but it was wonderfully thought provoking. It is a quick read (I read it in one sitting) but a very good one. I highly recommend it!
Overall, I'm so thankful that I had this experience and that the Lord provided for me to go to the conference. It was so wonderful. Right now, I don't know if I'll be able to go next year. I'm just trusting the Lord to provide for me, if He wants me to go.
