Announcing TBC's 2012 Conference

Once again, by God's grace we had a terrific conference here in beautiful Bend, Oregon.  The messages, presented in an atmosphere of wonderful fellowship and great encouragement, were tremendously edifying.

Therefore, Lord willing, we plan to do it again in 2012 and have already reserved the Riverhouse Convention Center for Friday and Saturday, August 10-11.  Our hope and prayer is that many of you will be able to join us.

Dave Hunt

Dave Hunt

Dave Hunt

Born in 1926, Dave enjoyed the advantages of a godly upbringing, and placed his trust in Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and Lord in his early teens.

He received a degree in mathematics from U.C.L.A. Marriage to his wife, Ruth, was followed by the birth of four children, a career as CPA/management consultant and, later, the management of several corporations. Along with church-related activities, Dave initiated and became involved in numerous campus ministries and meetings in his home, with a special outreach to Jewish young people and foreign students.

Since 1973 Dave’s desire for fulltime ministry has found fulfillment through authorship of books dealing with the incursion, into Western culture and the church itself, of Eastern, psychological and selfist philosophies, ecumenism, and other unbiblical teachings. Concern over Islamic politics and religion are reflected in current articles, lectures and interviews.

 

At least 4 million copies of his books have been sold and have been translated into more than 50 languages. They include: The Cult Explosion, The God Makers, The New Spirituality, The Seduction of Christianity, Global Peace and the Rise of Antichrist, Occult Invasion, A Cup of Trembling, In Defense of the Faith, An Urgent Call to a Serious Faith , What Love Is This?, Countdown to the Second Coming, Seeking and Finding God, Honest Doubts, Judgment Day! Islam, Israel, and the Nations, and his latest book Yoga and the Body of Christ.

 

His video, Israel, Islam & Armageddon has become a tremendous tool for churches and others interested in helping spread the truth about events prior to and since the attack on the World Trade Center.

 

Dave’s impeccable research and recognized scholarship are based on in depth studies of original documents and publications, interviews with key experts from around the world, and extensive travel—including to South America, Australia, Europe and throughout the Middle East.

A sought-after speaker at conferences, Dave has also been a frequent radio and television talk-show guest. With cohost T.A. McMahon, Dave challenged listeners weekly on the radio program Search the Scriptures Daily, broadcast over 350 stations in the U.S. and worldwide via shortwave radio.

Dave will likely be at the conference, but because of his health will not be speaking. We will be showing at least one "never seen before" video presentation of Dave during the conference.

T.A. McMahon

T.A. McMahon

T.A. McMahon is president and executive director of The Berean Call ministry, editor-in-chief and contributing writer for The Berean Call newsletter, co-author of The Seduction of Christianity, The New Spirituality, Understand the Times , and author of Showtime for the Sheep? Holder of a master's degree in communications, he has researched and written numerous documentaries and scripted several feature films. His writing/producing for Christian videos includes The Cult Explosion, The God Makers, The New Age: Pathway to Paradise? The Evolution Conspiracy, A Woman Rides the Beast, Israel, Islam & Armageddon, and Psychology and the Church .

Tom is the executive producer and co-hosted two weekly radio programs, Search the Scriptures Daily (with Dave Hunt) and According to God’s Word (with Jim McCarthy, Greg Durel, and Mike Gendron). He is also cofounder and an executive committee member of Reaching Catholics for Christ.

Paul Wilkinson

Paul Wilkinson

Paul’s writings feature church history and particularly how developments such as replacement theology have adversely influenced Christians regarding the restoration of Israel and Christ’s imminent return.

Paul is the Assistant Pastor of Hazel Grove Full Gospel Church in Cheshire, England, and studied at the International School of Holocaust Studies in Jerusalem.

He is the author of For Zion’s Sake , which addresses Christian Zionism, Christian Palestinianism, and the role of John Nelson Darby.
