| On May 5–12, 2018, the Journey staff hosted their first Family Journey to the Heart at Eagle Springs in Skiatook, Oklahoma. Entire families were able to come seek the Lord together rather than attending Journeys individually. This first Family Journey was held at the beautiful, 700+ acre Eagle Springs campus. The first Family Journey participants were two families with children ranging from 19 to 5 years old, who came with a sincere desire to seek the Lord and deepen their relationship with Him.

| Dr. Jobe Martin graduated in 1986 from Dallas Theological Seminary with a Masters of Theology in Systematic Theology. He has spent the last twenty years studying the topic of Biblical Creation vs. Evolution and lectures frequently on the subject. Dr. Martin was a "traditional evolutionist," but his medical and scientific training would go through an evolution – rather, a revolution – when he began to study animals that challenged the scientific assumptions of his education. Thus began the "evolution" of a creationist. Dr. Martin will be speaking at the Northwoods June Family Conference, June 5-9, and the Sacramento Family Conference, July 3-6.
