    CoRE Conference 2026

      Feb. 2-4

        In the late twentieth century expositional preaching gained broad acceptance in the American church, and it continues to be practiced widely. Nevertheless, given cultural pressures, contemporary church trends, and simply the grind of weekly ministry, preachers need regular encouragement to keep expounding the Scriptures with precision, fervency, and relevancy. Additionally, the church needs regular encouragement to give biblical exposition its rightful place. This conference will provide preachers with motivation and tools for faithful ministry of the Word. It will also challenge young men to consider seriously the call to the ministry of preaching. Finally, the conference will challenge church members to expound the Scriptures accurately in their own ministries and to support their pastors in the work of exposition.
