About this event
Our culture says simultaneously that you “can be all that you can be,” and that "there are no limits to your inner feelings.” Is this true? If this is so, how can I be assured I am living in God's will? How did God intend for us to view all of life? Does God’s Word give us prescriptive identities in which we glorify Him and find satisfaction? Did the fulfillment of the Gospel through the life, death, resurrection, and ascension of King Jesus change or re-affirm God's creational purposes?

About the organizer
The Common Slaves is a Northern Minnesota fellowship of Rural Reformed (and reforming) pastors, elders and churches
www.commonslaves.com
It is the purpose of the Common Slaves to foster a brotherhood and network of mutual encouragement and edification among brothers who are united doctrinally, yet diverse denominationally. Furthermore, we wish to encourage and foster a sense of community and fellowship between the churches we are privileged to serve by providing regular events at which multiple congregations may gather and worship together, with a focus on the ministry of preaching. It is our hope that the lifting up and strengthening of pastor and congregation, of shepherd and sheep, will strengthen the entire rural church in our corner of Minnesota so she may be more bold in her witness and striking in her resemblance of her Savior, for the good of the little communities in which we live, which so desperately need the gospel.
