DEEP & WIDE
ABIDING IN CHRIST THROUGH PRAYER AND BIBLICAL MEDITATION
The 2025 LIFETIME OF MINISTRY CONFERENCE
November 7–8
ABOUT THIS CONFERENCE
“What goes deepest to the heart goes widest to the world.”
At this year’s Lifetime of Ministry Conference, participants will explore the spiritual disciplines of prayer and biblical meditation—practices that nurture deeper intimacy with Jesus. Together, they’ll consider what it means to abide in Christ, experiencing his presence and power through prayer and reflection on his Word.
Conference sessions will address common obstacles to abiding in Christ, draw on ancient practices to face these challenges, and provide practical guidance for sustaining rhythms of prayer and meditation. Attendees will leave equipped with tools for cultivating ongoing transformation in life and ministry—and from that place of depth, will be stirred to long for the world to know the One who transforms.
