Welcome to this edition of the Sword and Trial podcast, which is a ministry of founders' ministries.

We are recording today in Cape Coral, Florida.

We're delighted that you have chosen to join us for this special podcast as we reflect upon the Christmas season and the fact that not everyone can find it easy to celebrate and rejoice during this time of year.

Before we get into that, we want to remind you that we do have a conference coming up in January

2022. That begins on the 20th of January. That's a Thursday night. It goes Thursday, Friday,

and Saturday. We have Vody Baucham coming in and Travis Allen and Conrad and Bayway and others as

well. You can find out more

information at founders.org but the rates go up in on January the 1st so Graham we need to

remind ourselves and others and people in our church that if they want the discounted rate those

end at December 31st at midnight so be sure and register before January 1st to join us. We also have a

pre-conference on the 19th of January that Wednesday night. That's going to be hosted at Grace Baptist

Church here in Cape Coral. We have limited space for that. Vody Baukman I will be addressing the issue

of the call. And Travis Allen will be joining us as we discuss that in a panel

format. So you can again find out more information about that, the tickets that are available,

along with a fam dinner, a ministry update dinner during the conference. So just go to founders.org

click on the icon related to the doctrine of the church, militant and triumphant. That's the theme of

the conference this year. And we hope to see you of the church, militant and triumphant. That's the theme of the conference this year.

And we hope to see you here in Southwest Florida in January 2022.

Yeah, we also have a great opportunity coming up January 4th.

This is just for Founders Alliance members.

So if you're part of the fan, this is for you.

January 4th at 7 p.m.
