The Unshakeable Foundation: Faith

We live in a time of spiritual confusion, cultural shifts, and theological drift. You want to stand firm in your faith, but you can feel it—the world is feeding you lies every day that are contrary to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

More than ever, the Church needs to stand firm on the most foundational truths of our faith. That’s why this year’s Foundations Conference is digging deep into the essential question: What is the Gospel?

Whether you’re leading from the pulpit, serving in kids ministry or on staff, or faithfully supporting from the front row, Foundations is for you.

REGISTER TODAY!

Dr. Lawrence holds degrees from Texas A&M University (B.A.), Dallas Theological Seminary (ThM.), and Cambridge University (MPhil. and PhD.). He is the author of Bonhoeffer: A Guide for the Perplexed (T&T Clark, 2010) and co-editor of Confronting Racial Injustice: Theory and Praxis for the Church (Cascade, 2022), Reconstructing Evangelicalism (Cascade, 2025), and Power and the Pulpit (Cascade, forthcoming). In addition, Joel has an active ministry speaking in churches, seminaries, and conferences worldwide.
Prior to his time at The CPT, Dr. Lawrence served as Associate Professor of Systematic Theology at Bethel Seminary in Arden Hills, MN. He also served in pastoral ministry as Teaching Pastor at Calvary Church in White Bear, MN, and as Senior Pastor of Central Baptist Church in St Paul, MN.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from respected theologian and pastor Dr. Joel Lawrence! Dr. Lawrence serves as President of The Center for Pastor Theologians, an organization committed to helping pastors grow in their identity as theologians.

He will guide us through the rich theology of Galatians—providing us with a deep study of the text and applications for our context. This year’s conference will equip and encourage pastors, ministry leaders, church staff, and spouses to confidently teach, live, and share the true Gospel in their homes, churches, and communities.
