In the eighth and final session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Pastor David Wilkerson shares his heart about the importance of minimizing our distractions and busyness, setting aside time each day to be alone with the Lord and seek His face. He encourages this generation to overcome their technology addiction — put down your gadgets, log off Facebook, and take a break from tweeting on Twitter to spend serious time every day in prayer.

In the third session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Pastor Carter Conlon of Times Square Church speaks about "Crisis Leadership."

In the fourth session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Pastor Claude Houde of Église Nouvelle Vie speaks about what it means to "expect," using Abraham as our example.

In the third session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Pastor Carter Conlon of Times Square Church answers the question, "What makes a great church?" It isn't the number of people that attend, having the gifts of the Holy Spirit, having knowledge and prophecy, having great faith, or caring for the poor. A great church is motivated by a love for God and a love for people.

In the sixth session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Pastor Jim Cymbala of Brooklyn Tabernacle speaks about "Preaching a Word of Fire."

In the second session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Nicky Cruz of Nicky Cruz Outreach speaks about overcoming spiritual depression. Our spiritual highs are often followed by spiritual lows. Elijah and Moses were both so depressed they asked God to take their life. Depression and burnout are an epidemic in the ministry. Many ministers are quitting because of moral failure, spiritual burnout, and contention in the church. Both Paul and David confessed their pain, trouble, and distress to God. Follow Jesus' example — draw away from the crowds and spend time with your Heavenly Father. He is listening and He cares!

In the opening session of our EXPECT 2010 Church Leadership Conference, Pastor Gary Wilkerson of The Springs Church talks about "Eager Expectations." It should be our eager expectation that we will not be ashamed; that we will live and die with full courage; and that we will rightly expect and fully experience fruitful labor.

When we are not in the Word of God we will not understand the signs of the times. We are living in a day when people are turning away from God to create their own right standing. As the days grow darker God is calling His people to stand in the Holy place. We are called to stand before the Cross and say, “Lord, take my life and heart into your hands and do what you will with it.” In this last hour of time will you stand in the Holy place and be what God created you to be and do what He called you to do for the Glory of God and the souls of men. When we stand in the holy place God will make His church beautiful and glorious and He will call us holy.

The times we live in are both the time of greatest need for Christ's message and the time of greatest opportunity to share it. Christ's death allows for justification and redemption of every human being on the planet, but His church is the method of delivery. All who call upon the Lord will be saved, but before they can call on Him they have to hear about Him, which is our duty as believers.

Is true community an option for a real disciple of Christ? God commands us to love Him and love others. Part of our new life in Christ is to be in community with other believers. If we neglect this, we are compromising in our complete obedience to Him. God is calling us out of this life of compromise to follow His example of community as He walked this earth. We don't have to do this in our own strength. God has called us to this life, established us and empowers us to be the center of His move on this earth.
