The Lenz ladies admiring our lovely hotel while Daddy attends a luncheon...first day of the conference!
The fun elevators. :)
There were around 2600 people at the conference!
Our family was encouraged, exhorted, and motivated in so many ways. Some of our favorite speakers were Paul Washer, Doug Phillips, Kevin Swanson, Geoff Botkin, Voddie Baucham, Scott Brown, and Joe Morcraft among many excellent men.
We tried taking a survey to find out which speaker our family appreciated most, but there were too many perspectives. We found we have more favorites than family members. :) The speakers spoke about everything in the context of the sufficiency of scripture for our lives, from the gospel of Jesus Christ to the laws of nations, culture and aesthetics, the meeting of the local church, family life, ministry, and so much more. As usual we came home feeling that we just finished drinking from fire-hose...and so blessed!
We were also excited to be at the Cinncinati Premier of the new creation film, The Mysterious Islands and to meet and listen to many of the cast and filmakers!
Four of the six arrows at the premier. :)
A tired and thankful crew ready to leave for home!
On they way home, Daddy took us out to eat at the Cracker Barrel in Wisconson...amazingly, the same one we visited on the last trip we made to Ohio in July!

Glad to be home to the cold and snow and warm fires and fresh cookies, hospitality, secrets filtering through the house... and above all, remembering the birth of our great Savior!

Hello!
It was fun to read this post and look at the photos! We are so glad you were able to go! We really want to go, but it didn't work out. The Tiemann family said that they enjoyed visiting with you there!
We hope you have a wonderful Christmas together as a family!
