Our church, Iglesia Bautista Vida Nueva, has an accredited seminary. From time to time, the church asks a professor who is here to teach classes if they will offer a three-night conference for the congregation.
Through this seminary program, last August we were fortunate to attend Dr. Ken Sheppard's three-night conference on Biblical geography/history of Israel. Tonight, we were blessed to hear Dr. Phil Roberts sharing his expertise with regard to religions and other sects/cults. Tonight his theme was: Unmasking Mormonism, tomorrow he will talk about Jehovah's Witnesses and Wednesday he will finish with the philosophy of salvation taught by the Catholic church.
Compared to the amount of material he shares in the seminary class, the two-hour conference agenda focuses on the big picture, rather than all of the details. In addition, translating from English into Spanish also reduces the amount of material that can be covered. Nevertheless, it was extremely interesting and we're excited to go back tomorrow night.
