The theme this year is, “Love on Its Knees.” Intercession is often described as “Love on Its Knees.” Pastors and Intercessors “go on mission” becoming “prayer missionaries,” & join with host congregations in praying over the vast and diverse mission field served by Chicagoland Baptist churches.

The rapid embrace of radical ideas surrounding gender identity ideology is seemingly everywhere we turn. It is even infiltrating the public school system as activists seek to strip away the rights of parents to direct the upbringing of their children.
Parents in your congregations and community are looking for answers to these challenging cultural problems. They need to hear from church leaders on the issue. While tackling these issues may seem daunting, IBSA ministry partner Alliance Defending Freedom is here to help.
A panel of church leaders from various denominations will join ADF attorneys for this discussion, including:
- Dr. Randy Davis – President/Executive Director, Tennessee Baptist Mission Board
- Rev. Christopher Esget – Fifth Vice-President, The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod
- Donna Barrett – General Secretary, Assemblies of God
- Bishop Flynn Johnson – Pastor, Atlanta Metro Cathedral
They’ll discuss:
- Current legislation and court cases related to gender identity issues and parental rights
- Ways the Church can engage on human sexuality issues in today’s culture
- How your church can protect its religious freedom as it seeks to operate according to biblical principles
You’ll leave better equipped to address gender identity issues and more aware of the legal and legislative matters parents are facing today.
