In advance of this year's Banner of Truth Ministers' Conference, Tim Challies will be conducting a "blog interview" of Iain Murray, and he's given his blog readers the opportunity to suggest some questions that would be good for him to ask Iain. The Banner Ministers' Conference (like no other conference that I'm aware of !) will be May 27-29, 2008 ... it's an incredible time for like-minded men in ministry to come together for some rich spiritual nourishment preached from God's Word, combined with personal fellowship that just isn't a part of most conferences today.If interested in joining us this year, or suggesting it to your pastor, download the conference brochure by CLICKING HERE.

By the way, I so strongly recommend you coming, even if you already have another conference on your calendar. Here are a few comments I've received just recently as guys are already re-registering for this year:
"Three years ago I was invited to attend the Banner of Truth Conference by another minister - what a blessing it has been to me ever since.... It is where I go to sit under the sound preaching of the Word and have my soul fed in great abundance. This year was no disappointment."
Pastor S.R.
"I consider the Banner Conference the highlight of my year and plan (D.V.) to be there! The Banner Conference is a time I anticipate being preached to. As a preacher we seldom get the time to sit under the Word as a live minister of the Gospel opens and applies it to our hearts. What a joy to sing with so many men and then fellowship around the mealtimes. The late night round tabales in the rooms are also a blessing. Praying with brothers down by the river is another highlight I look forward to. I would not miss the conference for anything but the most sovereign providence of God."
Pastor M.M.
"I've been looking forward to this conference from the minute I got in my car at the close of last year's conference. It was my first year and I fell in love with everything that went on in those wonderfully Christ-focused three days. I envied the stories of those men who had been attending for a lifetime and quietly looked forward to the day when I'll be able to wear the coveted Banner polo from decades back :-)
Pastor S.U.
"Yes (dv) I am coming, so add me to your list! I would walk to Pennsylvania to attend the Banner Conference. It is the mainstay of my collegial fellowship and my primary time to sit under the preaching of the Word of God each year. And I cannot begin to find the words to share how vital Banner books are to my soul, and my ministry."
Pastor D.B.

I didn't catch Challies' post until you mentioned it here. Thanks.
I also am looking forward to the Banner this year. It is a time of refreshing, fellowship, and up-building that I have enjoyed now for 5 years I think. I'm already registered, and wish it was May already.
