About Faithwalkers Midwest
Faithwalkers Midwest 2013 - Jesus - His Life, His Mission
Did you realize that long before He became a man, Jesus, the Son of God, created the world? Did you know that He created you? All that you see around you was put into motion by Jesus Christ, in order that God might win you over and bring you into a relationship with Him.
God's unchanging mission through all the ages has been to rescue mankind, to bring men and women out of their darkness and sin and to make them His very own children. Jesus has been on this mission from the beginning of creation. When Jesus came to earth, He came to seek and to save those who were lost. This was Jesus's life. This was His mission.
Join us at this year's Faithwalkers as we look at the life of Jesus and observe His missionary call, His missionary ways and His missionary lifestyle. Discover in a fresh way the God who became man, in order to reveal Himself to us and win us to Him. Come, and learn...about Jesus!
1. How did the Faithwalkers conference come into being?
The Faithwalkers conference came from the desire to give young men and women the opportunity to hear pastors who have been devoted to Jesus Christ and the Great Commission. At Faithwalkers, people get a chance to hear those men's stories of faith, to benefit from these men's life experiences, and to learn from men who have been in the arena all these years. The conference provides a way to continue to pass on the core beliefs of the Great Commission church movement. It is a rallying conference for everyone: young people, couples, parents, and families, to inspire them to be devoted to Jesus Christ and the Great Commission.
The name Faithwalkers was inspired by the Scripture: "We walk by faith and not by sight," (II Cor. 5:7). Also the name Faithwalkers makes a connection to the Native American culture where they would sit around the campfire with the "old ones" listening to them tell stories of the great hunt and deeds of the past. As Christians, older believers are to proclaim the deeds of God to younger believers, as is written in Psalm 78:4: "We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord."
