Conference audio and notes are available the annual PA Men’s and Women’s retreat, hosted by Fairview Bible Church- Erie, PA March 13-15, 2019.
For the general session and men’s classes, Gene’s topic was “Redeeming the Time” – which comes from Eph 5:15-16 “See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”

Losing To Gain #3
We study the Word so that we can be changed -- transformed into the image of Christ. Paul wants the Philippians to know that the Hand of God's Providence was working toward the benefit of the Gospel and them (Phi 1:12-13, Phi 1:24-25). Philippians were using their material blessings for others (Phi 4:10-13, Phi 4:19). "I have learned" (Phi 4:11). Paul was a disciple (2Ti 2:15); it takes a disciple to make a disciple (Joh 13:7, Jam 1:21). Christ is both the master of the school and its topic. "I know how" developed through practice. "Wisdom is justified [verified] in her children" (Mat 11:19, Luk 7:35). "I can do". We have reasons to endure the little inconveniences to prepare for the big ones (Joh 14:17-18, Heb 13:5-6).
