My husband and I attended the conference in Green Bay with 20 of our closest friends. What an experience. This is by far the BEST marriage conference we have ever attended. Mark is so real and passionate about marriage. His no-nonsense approach, wrapped with his gift of humor and showmanship, hit the heart. We were truly blessed by attending. Thank you!

We were so blessed by this seminar … we will definitely be attending again!

Thank you Mark for a wonderful weekend! My wife, Anna, and I went to the Farmington show and had a fantastic time. We both consider our relationship to be a good one but something happened that weekend that was magical. We walked away from the show and just had this unbelievable sense of closeness…”
“I want you to know that I talk about the marriage seminar to everyone I know. When you come back to our area again, I hope to have several couples in the audience to hear you. What you do is so unique! So inspiring!!!

What a super time we had this past weekend up in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin, at Mark’s seminar! It was out of this world!!! We learned so much about each other, and how to handle our differences, plus our strengths!

Creation Apologetics Track

azzcat — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 04:00:00 +0000

Great Homeschool Conventions, Inc. is a conservative organization and avowedly ‘young-earth’. As such, our conventions have always had a significant number of workshop sessions that teach ‘young earth’ subjects, and our 2012 conventions are no exception. To that end, we’re excited to announce that we will have a specific “Creation Apologetics Track” at each of our 2012 conventions, and that these sessions will be led by Dr. Jonathan Sarfati, Carl Kerby, Dr. Jay Wile and Dr. Jobe Martin. We’re also pleased to soon be adding a speaker from The Institute for Creation Research at each of the 2012 conventions, and will have more details as we get closer to each convention.

A complete list of TOPICS and DESCRIPTIONS – specific to each individual convention – will be posted within the next couple of months.
