2005 Desiring God National Conference

This weekend I took five other men from our church to Minneapolis for the 3rd Annual Desiring God National Conference. This year's theme was "Suffering and the Sovereignty of God." Speakers were John Piper, Carl Ellis, Mark Talbot, David Powlison, Steve Saint, and Joni Eareckson Tada.

You can read two excellent summaries of the conference at www.challies.com and www.coffeeswirls.com.

Especially stimulating was Professor Mark Talbot's address. Most interesting was his biblical defense of this shocking statement: "God is the creator of sin, but is not guilty of committing sin."
