Post-Conference Thought from Pastor Michael Miano:
Each person left the conference with a testimony. Many who attended hadn’t met many other Preterists before, and surely haven’t been in a church filled with Preterists, so the testimonies of encouragement and affirmation were abundant. Our speakers challenged us not only with Biblical details regarding the Kingdom of God and our worldview, but also challenged us to live it out. Lovingly. Nonviolently. Trusting God. Drawing near to God. Dispelling false theologies and eschatologies. I will admit, the Kingdom & Worldview Roundtable, left me feeling as if we have much more maturity needed, and sometimes I feel like we are not focusing on the right things and/or asking the the right questions. I trust our contributions at this conference, be they messages, fellowship, or resources will continue to urge us on to maturity and enable us to be the kings and priests in the Kingdom of God that we are called to be.

As we grow in Christ, “you are eating for two”.

Revelation is all about the tale of two cities. Old Jerusalem and New Jerusalem.
