WEEKEND

PROGRAMMEBROKEN MASTERPIECES

The three Bible talks will focus on Genesis chapters 1–3. We will explore in a brief compass some of thepractical themes arising from the central biblicaldoctrines in these chapters of creation, fall, and theconsequences for human life. In particular, the aim is to probe some of the main spiritual and emotionalneeds people experience and how the gospel of God’sgrace meets such needs. The hope is to help us in our fellowship with others.

Who is the conference for?We welcome members of the medical and alliedprofessions to the conference, in addition to CMFmembers and their families; you don’t need to be a member of CMF to attend. Day visitors arewelcome, as are those who can only attend for part of the conference.
