    CoRE Conference 2025

      Feb. 3-5

        In the Great Commission, Jesus told his disciples, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.” On the basis of that supreme authority, He then commanded the disciples, and the Church, to “make disciples of all nations, … teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you” (Matt. 28:18-20).

        So what all has Jesus commanded? About what can the Church speak with authority? The Gospel? Missions? Family roles? Counseling? Government? Education? Crisis? Life? Science? Creation order, culture and worldview?  

        Not only can the Church speak authoritatively on these subjects, she should. But amidst the clamoring voices of relativism and unsound doctrine, the Church has often lost her voice. Join us at BJU Seminary for our 2025 CoRE Conference, “Has the Church Lost Her Voice? Recovering the Authority of the Church,” to connect with others, renew your thinking and equip yourself to speak authoritatively as Jesus has commanded — to effectively make disciples and thereby carry out the Great Commission.
