Gil Bates, Peter Magnuson, Gary Fraley, and others plan to join us February 7–9, 2019, in Oak Brook, Illinois, for a men’s conference. The messages shared will inspire and encourage men in their walk with the Lord, in being leaders at home, and in serving Christ. The close proximity to both major Chicago airports makes this destination very convenient for travel to the Midwest. With this weekend conference occurring toward the beginning of the year, hopefully men will begin 2019 with a great start in being all they can be for the Lord and in advancing His Kingdom.

Gil Bates: "How to Be the Father You Always Wanted to Be"
To start out the new year, we especially desire to challenge fathers to fulfill God’s calling for them in leading their families. To encourage you in this endeavor, we have made available a particular Embassy message. As a pastor, small business owner, and the father of nineteen children, Gil Bates testifies that there are numerous things clamoring for his time. Realizing that none of us are perfect, how can you start the year out well? We think this message by Gil Bates, “How to Be the Father You Always Wanted to Be," can offer helpful insights into fulfilling God’s call for dads! Watch this uplifting and instructive message on EmbassyMedia.com.

What is the Power of a Spoken Blessing?
Our words have great influence in the lives of those around us, and spoken blessings can bring hope, encouragement, and direction to our families, friends, and others. Many people are experiencing deepening relationships and spiritual encouragement as they discover the power of spoken blessings. A spoken blessing is a positive, Biblical statement that invokes the blessing of God in the life of another. The power of spoken blessings comes from God, Who Himself “hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3). Learn more about blessings . . .
