HBC to host first Bible conference featuring Conrad Mbewe

Posted on November 12

Conrad Mbewe

Howick Baptist Church is pleased to announce that it will be hosting its inaugural "STAND 4 The Gospel" Bible conference, from April 16-18 2010. The conference will feature keynote speaker Conrad Mbewe from Kabwata Baptist Church, Lusaka, Zambia.

Widely regarded as “the African Spurgeon”, Conrad is also the Principal of the Reformed Baptist Preachers College in Zambia, and together with KBC is presently overseeing the establishment of ten new Reformed churches in Zambia and Botswana.

In our culture today, the centrality of the Gospel as outlined in the Bible is gradually being undermined and phased out. HBC Associate Pastor and conference organiser Calvyn Jonker explains: "At this conference, we will be exposed to a timely reminder of why the centrality of the Gospel and Scripture itself is so important, as we seek to be relevant, credible and effective witnesses for Christ in New Zealand."

The weekend conference will feature gospel-saturated plenary sessions by Conrad, as well as breakout workshops on topics relevant to daily Christian living: applying the gospel to our vocation, marriage & parenting and singleness. Workshop speakers include HBC Senior Pastor Peter Somervell, Pastor Paul Davison (Hastings baptist Church) and TSBC Lecturer Joe Fleener.
