Well, as you can imagine, the conference was just wonderful. We were richly fed, thoroughly blessed, and deeply touched by God through it all. Gideon said he would never forget his experience.
Some of my favorite quotes from the conference are these:
"Everything we do in the church and in life is driven by our view of the nature of God and who He is." - R.C. Sproul.
"When the word of God is brought down, man naturally is lifted up. Any departure from the Scripture is a departure from God Himself."
"If we're superficial in the word of God we'll be superficial in the worship of God."
"What you think about God affects everything you do." - Steve Lawson
"You don't have to know a lot of things. But you do need to know a few great things and live for them and be willing to die for them."
"In Jesus conquering the obstacles that kept me from seeing and loving the glory of God (my sin and God's wrath), He Himself becomes the highlight of that glory and thereby the highlight of my affections."
"You can't be pleasing to God if you don't go to Him for
gladness." - John Piper
These were just a few of the gold nuggets we were served from God's word. It was very refreshing and now Gideon and I get to put into practice the things we learned. Jesus said, "Now that you know these things, you are blessed you if you do them" (John 13:17).

Wow, Cohen, it sounds like a great convention! Wish I could have been a fly on the wall.
