Why this Conference? How do we walk the wise path of life living in our increasingly secular and pagan culture; with all kinds of subtle, siren voices leading us down the path of destruction. God has give us his revealed Word, which is sufficient to make us wise for salvation and all of life (Proverbs 3:16-17, II Timothy 3:15) What must we believe, and how does Scripture lead and guide us to think, live and discern?
Speakers: Paul Helseth and Ardel Caneday are seasoned professors and churchmen who are also long-time friends and colleagues in Bible and theology Department at Northwestern University–Roseville. Both have taught a generation of college students in the Sufficiency of Scripture to address all the needs and dilemmas of the current culture. Many former students will testify to How God used their classes and their counsel to help set them on a God-ward trajectory for life.

Proverbs 2:1-12a My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints. Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity, every good path; for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul; discretion will watch over you, understanding will guard you, delivering you from the way of evil.
