7. Last Year Faith Forges Freedom Iron Sharpens Iron The day was full of intensity, excitement, humor, and enthusiasm. When it was over, I felt refreshed, strengthened, and renewed. I could easily have spent another day or two with these guys, but was also anxious to get out there and be "on fire" for the Lord! Thanks for a great conference. “ “When I heard the pulpit talk about the Conference I felt a "tap" on my shoulder from God saying, "This is for you. This is what you've been looking for to regain the momentum against the challenges of the secular world." It was.” “This was the one event that changed my life. After the first talk, I finally gave my heart to Jesus. I have never been the same. God bless you. See you next year.”
