Bearing Burdens Conference set for May 13 in Mansfield
In Galatians 6:2, the Apostle Paul exhorts believers,“Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.”
On May 13, pastors and church members can learn how to care for those in crisis during the Burden Bearing Conference at Lincoln Heights Baptist Church, Mansfield.
Buckeye Central/Erie Baptist Association (BCEBA) is sponsoring the one-day conference and Josh Swinehart, BCEBA moderator, encourages both pastors and church members to attend the event.
“The focus of this is going to be mostly on soul care and counseling topics,” he said.
Swinehart says the event is open to both pastors and their church members.
“Sometimes as a pastor it is overwhelming to figure out what to say to someone in a difficult situation,” he noted. “But what about when it’s the person next to you in the pew who’s going through something. We want to equip our pastors but we really want to push them to bring their congregations and encourage that.”
Speakers for the Conference include:
Dr. Paul Tautges -. Paul Tautges serves as senior pastor at Cornerstone Community Church, Mayfield Heights, Ohio. He is a council member of the Biblical Counseling Coalition, a teaching fellow with the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors and has completed the Formation Certificate from the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation, Glenside, PA. He will lead a breakout session based on his book “Counseling One Another.”
Dr. David “Gunner” Gundersen - Dr. David “Gunner” Gundersen is the Dean of Faculty at the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation, Glenside, PA. During the conference he will lead a breakout session on hard topics in counseling.
Drs. Bob and Susan Burnett - Drs. Bob and Susan Burnett, Mt. Gilead Glory Baptist Church, will discuss the burdens of ministry on couples during their breakout session.
Pastor Rick Williams - Pastor Rick Williams is Senior Pastor of Violet Baptist Church, Pickerington, Ohio. As a firm believer in leading from a healthy soul, Rick’s passion lies in encouraging and coaching other leaders to do the same. His breakout session will address ministry burnout.
In addition to the breakout sessions, the speakers will participate in a panel discussion during the lunch break.
