  • CHRISTIANITY

Kingdom Fellowship Weekend exists to promote Biblical Christianity in an era marked with apathy and compromise. Our heart-​cry is to "continue steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers." Our passion is to return to the historical Anabaptist focus of total surrender to King Jesus and to embrace this lifestyle within our local church communities. We endeavor to do this by encouraging revival, fervent prayer, surrender to Jesus, and by providing a forum for Biblical teaching for those who desire to live as disciples of Christ. We want this event to be a place where Kingdom-​minded Christians from various backgrounds can meet one another for edification and encouragement. We especially want to encourage those who are new to embracing the teachings of Jesus and provide fellowship for them in the journey. We are committed to a Christian expression that is Christ-​centered, Scripture-​based, and Kingdom-​focused, specifically as modeled by the Anabaptist tradition. Although Kingdom Fellowship Weekend is organized and sponsored by conservative Anabaptists, our vision is to build bridges among all true followers of Jesus. We welcome all who, as we, are praying "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." https://kingdomfellowship.org/

    "The Difference Between Tradition & Traditionalism" by Kinley Coulter

    Tradition is a system of beliefs or expected behaviors passed down within a group of people with symbolic meaning or special significance…customs, ethics, values, norms, heritage and culture are nearly synonymous terms. Traditionalism refers to a profound distrust of anything that would alter or interfere with maintaining traditions. In the extreme, this behavior becomes “reactionary,” that is, an opposition to (and rejection of) any and all innovations that cause traditions to be modified or lost. Anabaptist commitment to a cultural heritage has been a two-edged sword. It has been a tremendous blessing… insulating our churches from many damaging societal influences… “a friend to grace to help us on to God.” Clearly, though, an unhealthy preoccupation with the past can diminish our ability to portray the glory of Christ. It can distract us (and the watching world) from His Gospel. It can damage our compelling portrayal of His kingdom. This sermon will attempt to consider an answer to Francis Schaeffer’s pressing question: “How, then, shall we live?”

    "Young Man, Will You STAND?" by Joe Root

    As the focus of this conference will include the inspiring history of some courageous young men in the 1500s who took a tough stand for clear principles of the Word of God, this message for youth will jump back a few centuries earlier and gain courage and inspiration from a boy in the Bible. This boy stood firmly with faith in his God in a very absorbing and challenging cultural setting that was not entirely unlike ours today. Will you?

    "Establishment of the Church: How Did They Decide?" by Paul Shirk

    What would come to be called the “Radical Reformation or Anabaptism” began in a time of unrest and upheaval. The medieval traditions and the authority of the established church were being challenged by many voices and ideas. How could someone know the truth in such a chaotic and confusing time? If the traditional medieval church model was corrupted, should it be reformed or completely rebuilt? How should the Scriptures be interpreted and applied to give the right direction? By what process would believers determine God’s direction for their lives and how would they counsel other believers? Those decisions were important, because they would live, and perhaps die, by what they believed and by whose voice they chose to follow.

    "Martyrs Only in the Past: What About Us?" by Stephan Gingerich

    Thousands of courageous young men willingly gave their lives to defend the “cause of freedom” in the World Wars. Where are the men and women, young and old, who would willingly risk their lives for the cause of Spiritual Freedom today? Why aren’t we hearing about more Anabaptist people losing their lives in spreading the Gospel?

    "Radical Reformation: Who Were the People?" by Kinley Coulter

    Fifty days after Christ’s resurrection, the mighty wind of the Spirit of Power roared through the midst of 120 disciples when the Day of Pentecost “was fully come.” This birthed the Church of the Firstborn, 3,000 strong, from a rag-tag band of disciples. Corruption invaded almost immediately (Acts 5) among the Brethren. This disgrace quickly “made havock of the Church… perverting its Gospel” (Gal. 1:6-9), and devastating its testimony. The Spirit of Pentecost continued to whisper breezes of Truth among nascent reform movements through long centuries riddled with compromise and error among God’s people. Early in the 16th century, these stirrings became storm-clouds and the “rushing mighty wind” of the Spirit roared again on another tiny band of disciples. Reformers? Yes, but radicalized… doggedly determined to unleash the Spirit of Truth and the Sword of His Word. Their non-negotiable goal? A rebirth in the Church of the Firstborn. Four men that loomed large in the early days of this Spirit-powered upheaval deserve some thoughtful consideration. Ulrich Zwingli, Felix Manz, Conrad Grebel and George Blaurock all bled and died in the early days of Anabaptism for their understanding of the Church. We do well to examine the two Spirits clashing among them… the Harlot Church, and the Church of the Living God have come to blows. This same battle rages in our day. Whose testimony will we pattern the church after in our day?

    “Radical Reformation: What Were the Issues?” by Kyle Stoltzfus

    Peering through 500 years of history, how can we know what caused the Reformation? When the prophet Habakkuk lamented that he did not understand what God was doing, God replied pointedly, “I am working a work in your days which you would not believe even if someone told it to you.” We begin with God’s promises before talking about central issues such as the believer’s church, non-participation in warfare, the nature of the Kingdom of God, and new access to Scripture. Then we discuss contributing factors such as plague and threat of invasion before returning once again to God’s promise.

    “Historical Context: Why Was Change Needed?” by Chester Weaver

    Imagine a church out of touch with reality! What kind of answers could it provide for the European masses? On top of that, imagine religious ignorance born from illiteracy and followed by religious totalitarian control. Any lessons for us?
