In the 2023 annual leaders retreat, we examined various ways in which people respond to God's word. 

We focused on the responsibilities of those who handle God's word, emphasizing the importance of staying focused and avoiding personal biases.

We stressed the need for the word to have authority over personal preferences and for wholehearted commitment, without distractions, to God's word. 

Our commitment is to proclaim and uphold the authority of the word to the ends of the world while appealing to everyone's conscience about Christ's finished work.
