TGC’s 2023 Conference is happening September 25–27, in Indianapolis. Register soon!
The theme of our upcoming TGC23 national conference (September 25–27) is Hope in the Wilderness: Encouragement for Pilgrims from the Book of Exodus.
As we prepare for the conference, we’d love to hear from you: How has God met you in a difficult place or season and encouraged you in faithful perseverance? Where have you found gospel hope in the wilderness?
Join our #HopeInTheWilderness social media campaign and contest. Here’s how.
How to Participate
Simply post a video of yourself (or a photo with a written caption) on Instagram, TikTok, or Twitter, briefly sharing a testimony of how you found gospel hope in a “wilderness.” Your “wilderness” could be anything: a difficult ministry context, a hostile secular workplace, a personal trial or experience of chronic suffering, a season of waiting or wandering, or something else that felt or feels like a wilderness. In that wilderness place, how did biblical truth and the gospel give you hope?
- Share your story on video (under three minutes) or as a photo with a written caption
- Be sure to use the hashtag #HopeInTheWilderness
- Be sure to tag TGC (Instagram/TikTok: @thegospelcoalition / Twitter: @TGC) so we can track entries
TGC will retweet and/or share to our Instagram Story a few entries, and our staff will pick up to three submissions who will receive a free registration for TGC’s 2023 Conference in Indianapolis.
The campaign runs now through July 14. We’ll select winners on July 14 and announce them soon after.
In a season of sorrow? This FREE eBook will guide you in biblical lament
Lament is how we bring our sorrow to God—but it is a neglected dimension of the Christian life for many Christians today. We need to recover the practice of honest spiritual struggle that gives us permission to vocalize our pain and wrestle with our sorrow.
In Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy, pastor and TGC Council member Mark Vroegop explores how the Bible—through the psalms of lament and the book of Lamentations—gives voice to our pain. He invites readers to grieve, struggle, and tap into the rich reservoir of grace and mercy God offers in the darkest moments of our lives.
