Our Theme

In a world of fake news, broken promises, and unmet expectations, trusting anyone can seem unrealistic, maybe even foolish.

But from Genesis to Revelation, God has proven himself completely trustworthy. His plan to redeem the world has not been stopped, and it cannot be stopped. He fulfills his promises.

Join us October 3–4 in Boynton Beach, Florida, at the 9Marks Promised and Fulfilled Conference, as we celebrate the story of our certain redemption. 9Marks Bible Talk hosts—Jim Hamilton, Sam Emadi, and Alex Duke—will take us on a journey from the Garden of Eden to a New and Better Garden, following God’s unbroken, beautiful path of salvation. Register today and let’s see how God keeps his promises and exceeds our expectations!
