On Friday, August 23rd, 25 pastors convened at First Family Church in Ankeny for the 2024 BCI Preaching Workshop. Dr. Steven Smith provided a comprehensive session on “Preaching the Parables,” offering valuable insights on interpreting, structuring, and delivering sermons based on Christ’s teachings. The workshop was marked by deep discussions on preaching and joyful fellowship of pastors.

We want to thank First Family Church for their hospitality in hosting, Molly for her helpful coordination of the venue and food, and to Pastor Todd Stiles for hosting and facilitating the event.
