What does it mean to be human? This question is the great issue of our day. Join us this October for our national conference, where we'll consider what God has to say about who we are. There are only a few days left to register for our conference before the price increases! Learn more and register by August 18 at https://t.co/SMGlDhBCwN.
"We want to redisplay the compelling goodness of God's design for our humanity. So we'll contemplate Jesus, the true human; mankind, made in his image; our body as blessings; his body, the church, as our place of renewal; spiritual formation in an age of machines; and our destiny as resurrected saints." —Gunner Gundersen

About the conference: One of the greatest of all human longings is the desire for relational intimacy, yet many of us feel isolated and disconnected from both God and others. God’s plan from the beginning has been for his people to draw near to him, and to each other, as a kingdom of priests. But though the theme of the priesthood is present from Genesis to Revelation, the church’s understanding of it is often limited. Join us as we examine these truths and chart a path for how to reclaim our true identity as royal priests and remake our earthly and heavenly relationships.
We're selling a variety of resources at a steep discount through the end of August. Explore our resources today: https://t.co/ShoNN1aXze
Our national conference is a highlight of each year—a rich time learning more from God's Word with God's people. Check out this recap video from the 2025 National Conference.
We hope you join us this year, whether in person and virtually, as we explore what it means to live fully human as God's designed. Learn more at https://t.co/SMGlDhBCwN.

"Sin, and growing from sin, is way more than ‘just stop doing it.’ There’s actually a God who enters in, comforts, reassures, and speaks to me through his promises." —Esther Liu
In this fourth episode of our series exploring CCEF's seven distinctives, CCEF faculty discuss what we mean when we say, "Our hearts are active." Together they explore how Scripture describes the heart as the center of our desires, fears, loves, worship, and choices. How does understanding the heart change the way we pursue personal growth, care for others, and participate in the life of the local church?
