The National Leadership Conference, originally planned for a three-year track with a potential run of 10 years, exceeded expectations by running annually for 15 years. Conference attendance ranged between 400 and 700 annually and brought together pastors and teachers from across the nation to present point/counterpoint views and to challenge and encourage colleagues in ministry.

  3. Ethical Issues (1997)
  4. Fundamentalism and the Great Commission (1998)
  5. Where is Theology Going: Doctrinal Issues Affecting Your Ministry (1999)
  6. Preaching and Worship (2000)
  7. Building on the Past: Are We Different? Are We Doing Ministry Better? (2001)
  8. Our Salvation: Issues in Soteriology (2002)
  9. Sanctification (2003)
  10. Eschatology (2004)
  11. Real World Ministry (2005)
