Get ready to be stretched, inspired and encouraged! We have Dr. John Meade and Dr. Peter Gurry from Phoenix Seminary coming to New Hyde Park Baptist Church in May for the Scribes & Scripture Conference. They will give four lectures and provide a time for Q&A. We will learn how a set of books written in different languages by dozens of authors across thousands of years was copied, canonized, and translated to become the Bible we know today. Spread the word. Invite a friend! (Light lunch will be provided.)
