On the mountain, Jesus taught his disciples to “seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness” (Matt 6:33). The overall aim of the Christian life is to pursue God’s kingdom, not our own kingdoms in this world. Turning away from ourselves, we look to Jesus as the author and finisher of our faith. Assured of Christ’s love and centered upon His completed work for us, we have a firm foundation upon which to resist darkness and seek the kingdom of God.

Monroe Missionary Baptist Church in Monroe, Michigan is hosting their 2023 Men’s Conference on the theme of, “The Purpose of the Christian Life.” Their Men’s Conference aims to ground and grow men in the grace and knowledge of Christ.
