ECN Conference
THEME: THE BODY OF CHRIST: BEING A MOVEMENT OF GOD
The ECN (Evangelical Christian Network) was formed in answer to the question posed in Psalms 11:3, namely “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” We experience that this is exactly what is happening in our own time. The foundations of the social, academic and moral structures of society, which were built upon Christian values, are currently being undermined and even overturned. The question is what we as Christians could do about this challenge.
