G3

By Elizabeth Prata

Sitting here in the rainy dark, I have unpacked from my three days away at the 2020 G3 Conference in Atlanta. G3’s tagline is Gospel-Grace-Glory. It is a heavily Christian conference, focusing on preaching, doctrine, and more preaching. The theme this year was “Worship.”

I attended with two younger ladies from our church, and also attending from our church was our teaching pastor and his wife, and one of our teachers in the church. Also a friend who I haven’t seen in a long while who I used to go to church with but is now a pastor somewhere else. He brought his son to the conference on the last day. The young boy wore his best suit coat, held his Bible tightly, and asked “Can we meet John MacArthur?” Continue reading “Last impressions of G3: Conclusion” →

We traveled to the G3 conference today. It is my first big conference. About 4000 believers will be in attendance, all here to learn about worship and to glorify God. It’s hard to think of what it will be like to sing and pray and learn among such a large group of people who love Christ.

We arrived early enough to check in and retrieve our badges for the conference tomorrow, so we will not have to wait in the long line tomorrow. The drive in to Atlanta was perfectly smooth. Finding the Georgia Convention Center was easy. Checking in was a breeze. We saw Paul Washer talking with a small group of people. Finding the hotel afterward was a 5-minute drive and also smooth. The hotel announced to us that they upgraded us to a complimentary suite. It’s a beautiful suite, with a living room, kitchen and two beds.

The Lord has been so gracious to me in organizing this trip. I am blessed to be experiencing this with two adorable and intelligent women who love Christ, and meeting up with our pastor and his wife tomorrow. I’m humbly grateful for the opportunity and I can’t wait to see how He uses me this weekend and afterward for His glory.

Here are the girlies checking in with their loved ones to say we made it in safely. And giggling.
