January 24–26,2025

a conference on
Gender, Marriage, and Sexuality

Hosted by Pastor Richard Caldwell and Founders Baptist Church

Ten years ago, this Truth in Love Conference was started because we desired to address some of the most important issues facing the church with an approach that manifests complete confidence in God and His Word, and the kind of love (God’s love) that fuels such an approach.

We live in a world that distorts love and denies truth. Ephesians 4:15 says, “… speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.” That is our goal. We also desired a conference that emphasized that the local church is the pillar and support of the truth in this world (1 Timothy 3:15). This conference remains a ministry of this local church on purpose, and we pray it is an encouragement for our own people, and for all the local churches represented by brothers and sisters who come from outside our congregation.

The theme for this year's conference is the same we started with in 2016: Gender, Marriage, and Sexuality.

Our purpose is simply to equip Christians, pastors, church leaders, and local ministries to know how to apply the gospel on issues of biblical sexual ethics and gender, and to explore what the gospel means for the future of marriage and sexual identity.
