Join the Conference
We look forward to seeing you at our next conference location.
A DANIEL TRAINING NETWORK CONFERENCE
The One Hope, One Boast Conference is a gathering organized for the purpose of encouraging disciples of Jesus to place their sole confidence in the cross (our “boast”; Ga 6:14), as they wait patiently for the return of Jesus (our “blessed hope”; Tit 2:13).

One Hope: The Second Coming
It [the grace of God] teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness…while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ… Titus 2:12-13

One Boast: Messiah Crucified
But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world… Galations 6:14
Summons To Foolishness
What would motivate a human being to embrace such utter foolishness? In 1 Corinthians 3:18, the apostle Paul says, “Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.” In days of old, God told a man named Noah to build an ark. Noah built an ark, and in their hubris, men called it foolishness…but God called it wisdom. In the end, the Flood settled the matter. So too, a storm of unprecedented magnitude is appointed for the last days. God will test the hearts of all men. As the storm approaches, once again our Master is calling us to follow in the footsteps of our foolish forefathers and forsake the so-called wisdom of this age, in pursuit of a wisdom that will last forever. What does this look like?
This is the only foundation that can withstand the coming storm. This is the ark God is calling His people to build in a generation imbibed on false gospels and the wisdom of man.
Join us as we pursue the foolish wisdom of God.

Conference Theme
Living Anchored In God's Story
In Acts 26 verses 6-8, as Paul is presenting his defense in the presence of Festus, Agrippa, Bernice, and the high-ranking officers of the city of Caesarea, he cites his “hope in the promise made by God to our ancestors” as the reason he is standing on trial:
And now I stand here on trial because of my hope in the promise made by God to our ancestors, a promise that our twelve tribes hope to attain as they earnestly serve God night and day. Concerning this hope the Jews are accusing me, Your Majesty! Why do you people think it is unbelievable that God raises the dead?
Before leaders and authorities in whose hands Paul’s life, from a human perspective, hung in the balance, this man, who as an authorized representative of the crucified Messiah bore on his body “the marks of Christ” (Gal. 6:17), boldly declared that the one true God had made an unshakable promise to his ancestors, a promise for which he would rather die or remain in prison than deny. After all, at stake in this promise was the very overturning of death itself!
When we read the Scriptures, we quickly realize that the promise of God to which Paul was referring is tied to a grand narrative, a story, that spans from Genesis to Revelation. The story begins at Creation, when God makes the heavens and the earth in all their vast array. Tragically, human beings quickly rebel against God, which results in God’s Curse falling upon His good creation. Yet God doesn’t abandon His creation; through Covenants made with real people in real time and real space, he promises to save and restore it. In the first century, the story continues to unfold with full dramatic effect when God, in faithfulness to His promises, sends His Messiah the first time to die on the Cross as an atoning sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins. But the Messiah doesn’t stay in the grave. On the third day He rises from the dead as a first-firsts of the resurrection. Then comes the Commission:
Repentance and the forgiveness of sins” are to be proclaimed “to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem” Luke 24:47
In the final chapters of the story, the narrative reaches its climax: A time of great Crisis comes to the earth at the end of the age, especially to the nation of Israel. At the end of this time of testing, however, the saints exchange their sufferings for a Crown when the Messiah returns in power and glory to raise the dead and set up His Kingdom! Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end!
In the mind of Paul and so many other saints throughout history, the promises that God made in context to His story were so reliable and trustworthy, and their fulfillment so certain, that they gladly embraced their status in this age as “the scum of the earth [and] the refuse of the world” (2 Cor. 1:20), knowing that one day their “momentary, light suffering” would be eclipsed by “an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison” (2 Cor. 4:17). Their lives were anchored in the promises of God; God’s story had become their own.
At the end of the age, the love and loyalty of God’s people will be tested at unprecedented levels. When those days come, will we find that the same is true of our own lives? If our lives are to be anchored in God’s story and promises then, we must allow God to anchor our lives in His story and promises now.
This is the cry of our hearts at this year’s conference. We invite you to join us, and we look forward to fellowshipping with those of you who can attend.

Recently my brother and I had the distinct pleasure of attending the "1Hope1Boast" conference at IHOP/EG in Cranford, NJ. To say that our lives will never be the same again would be an understatement.
Alven

It was such a blessing to attend last year's conference in person! I kept all the material and it was so rich in instruction.
Julie

1H1B conference was a tremendous help for me in better understanding the biblical paradigm of scripture and how a believer should live in light of the Cross and the return of Jesus.
