Announcing a Fourth 2018 Family Conference!
Within a short amount of time after announcing the Northwoods Family Conference, available housing was completely filled! A waiting list of families for housing began and has continued to grow as other families are interested in attending a Family Conference at the Northwoods. Because of the high interest in the Northwoods conference, we have scheduled a second Family Conference at the Northwoods Conference Center for August 28-31, 2018! We are thrilled that in addition to some of our already-scheduled speakers, Jerry Benjamin, and Keith & Jenny Daniel from South Africa also plan to join us. Read more. . .

Malachi 4:6 says “And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.” In our society today, numerous distractions and dangers compete for the hearts of your sons. Many fathers unintentionally neglect this paramount relationship. As a father, you have a responsibility to guard and protect your sons, and, leading by example, to turn their hearts toward God.

Tim Lee grew up in a Christian home and gave his heart to Christ at the age of 10. As he grew up, however, he developed a hostile attitude toward authority. At age 14, Tim walked the streets of McLeansboro, IL, protesting all ordained authority in the home, church, and school. Tim was running from God and joined the Marine Corps in 1969 to escape the world around him. What began as a routine mine sweep in 1971 ended in disaster when both of Tim’s legs were blown off. His days of running from God were over, and Tim finally surrendered to God. Today Tim travels as an evangelist, carrying the Gospel across the nation. He will be speaking at the Big Sandy Family Conference, April 23-27, 2018.
