Speaker - Christine McCutchion

Following God’s call doesn’t remove challenges—sometimes obedience leads to greater resistance—but God’s purposes will prevail.

Resistance is not a sign of God’s absence, but an opportunity for His power to be revealed.

Speaker - Roger Simpson

God reveals Himself as the great “I AM” and equips the hesitant and weak to carry out His mission.

God doesn’t call the qualified—He qualifies the called.

Speaker - Jono Simpson

God sees our struggles, hears our cries, and remembers His covenant promises, even when deliverance feels delayed.

Even when God seems silent, He is preparing deliverance behind the scenes.

Speaker - Eileen Poore

Even in seasons of suffering and opposition, God is sovereignly at work—multiplying His people, raising up deliverers, and advancing His purposes

Speaker - Greg Prior, Archdeacon of Croydon
