Affection for the Local Church ~ 2023
For the 2023 Jude Conference it was felt needful to hold a conference that considered the issue of the decreasing affection for the local church by many believers across the board. God's Word positions the Local Church 'front and centre' in God's timeless plan to redeem His people and perfect the Saints. However, its position has been relegated in recent years as due to powerful digital technologies and "internet church" , the global pandemic and a widespread rejection of all forms of authority in society. This conference represented our first major in-person gathering.
