Titled "The Enemy Within: Sexual Abuse in the Church," the conference was sponsored by Warhorn (at the time Clearnote) Media, and held at Trinity Reformed Church in Bloomington, Indiana.Victims of sexual abuse carry their scars with them their whole lives, affecting every relationship they have.

It’s the job of every pastor to deal with conflict among the sheep—to preserve peace and unity without sacrificing the true righteousness to which God calls his people.2022-06-081h 05Sermons from Trinity Reformed ChurchOn the Casting of Pearls (Matthew 7:6)Matthew 7:6.

Warhorn ConferencesStanding in the Gap 3 - Cheap Grace (Max Curell)Today’s evangelical knows forgiveness comes from God’s grace, but too often he knows nothing about the grace of God’s Law or the life of repentance. Learn why proclaiming forgiveness without concern for repentance produces “cheap grace,” and why “grace” today has become a cliché used to avoid dealing with the gaps in the wall. Learn how true grace is costly enough to confront our sin and strong enough to conquer what we want to conceal.2022-03-2148 minSermons from Trinity Reformed ChurchGood Tidings of Great Joy (Luke 2:8–20)Luke 2:8–20.
