Iron Sharpens Iron is a day conference for Men and Teen males designed to equip them in their faith. They will enjoy a day to intentionally dive into spiritual growth. Connection, fellowship, encouragement, prayer, worship, teaching will be the order of the day.
Cost: Tickets start at $59 per man. Go to www.focalpointministries.net for all costs.
Reasons to attend:
For God’s Glory – This conference is a great opportunity for you to
personally encounter and do business with God. God’s character and majesty will be lifted up in dynamic music and sound biblical teaching.
For Your Spiritual Growth – Two keynote speakers will speak to you about authentic manhood and sixteen different seminar presenters will equip you to deal with specific manhood issues and to live out your life for Jesus Christ.
For Your Wife and Family – you’ll encourage your wife and children
with your commitment to be in the company of godly men; to learn more about what it means to be the godly husband and father God has called you to be.
For Your Sons and Grandsons – By bringing your sons and
grandsons to ISI, they will experience and remember what it is like to worship Almighty God; to celebrate Him, praying and learning about Him in the company of other godly men.
For Your Brothers – You’ll experience the special camaraderie that men of God share. You will make new friendships and deepen old ones. You’ll build a band of brothers, start a new men’s ministry, or take your existing men’s ministry to a new level.
For Your Pastor – Your pastor is at ground zero of the culture war and he’ll be greatly encouraged and equipped by spending the day with men of all ages and stages in a totally masculine context.
For Your Church – The local church is the hope of the world. When you return, you’ll be reinvigorated and better equipped to help carry out the Great Commission through men who’ve been connected to God and one another at ISI.
For Your Neighbor – By inviting and bringing a friend, neighbor, co-worker, colleague, or family member with you who doesn’t know Christ, God can work through you and the day’s activities to give them a new identity and new destiny in Christ.
