International Presbyterian Church

The Christian Church

Her Lord and Servants, Her Life and Praise

14-16 June 2022 – IPC Ealing

The 2022 IPC Catalyst Conference will look at the doctrine of the church in Scripture. We will spend time encountering the living God in Scripture in our morning expositions as we consider the ministers, ministry and preaching of the church. The rest of each day will then explore what happens when we worship, who runs the church, and what sustains the church in a hostile world.

Each day will consist of the following sessions:

The Servants of the Church

Sinclair Ferguson (Morning Expositions)

The Praise of the Church

Jonathan Landry Cruse

The Lord of the Church

Jonty Rhodes

The Life of the Church

Jonny Gibson (Sabbath)
David Gibson (Baptism)
