For Such a Time
Featuring Local & National topic experts
The widely acclaimed Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr once preached a sermon about the biblical mandate and historical mission of the Church (which is us: every single follower of Jesus Christ).
“The Church must be reminded that it is not the master or the servant of the state, but rather the conscience of the state. It must be the guide and the critic of the state, and never its tool. If the Church does not recapture its prophetic zeal, it will become an irrelevant social club without moral or spiritual authority.
But if the Church will free itself from the shackles of a deadening status quo, and, recovering its great historic mission, will speak and act fearlessly and insistently in terms of justice and peace, it will enkindle the imagination of mankind and fire the souls of men, imbuing them with a glowing and ardent love for Truth, justice, and peace.”
In this one day conference you will hear EIGHT presentations laying a historical and Biblical foundation, with time for questions from the audience and TWO panel conversations before concluding.
This is not something you or your congregation can afford to ignore any longer. Wicked political agendas are barely even bothering to hide their hatred of Biblical Christianity anymore, and are brazenly determined to regulate and restrict the preaching of the Truth and morals this nation was founded upon and communities must have to thrive.

We need to talk.
A fear of socially-debated issues has gripped most pulpits of Australia for decades. Let’s be honest. Our once Christian nation now openly throws parades for pride in sexual immorality and celebrates decriminalising the killing of innocent people. Coincidence?
Australians are actively being discipled by the media, internet influencers, politicians and entertainment celebrities about the most debated issues in our culture. Yet far too many preachers remain silent about those topics – despite the Bible being loud and clear.
We need a reformation. There can be no revival in any nation without repentance, and there will be no repentance without the pulpits of Australia aflame with fearless preaching of righteousness – what is objectively good, not what is inoffensive.
Church And State convenes high calibre speakers at events in Brisbane, Hobart, Perth, Canberra, Adelaide and Sydney every year answering the questions of a lost culture stumbling in the darkness. You will be encouraged, equipped and challenged at these events to be effective salt and light – discipling the nation, teaching them everything Jesus commanded.

“So many wonderful speakers with great teaching, wisdom and words of encouragement. The prayer and worship was so revitalising and of great comfort during these difficult times.”
“It was my first time attending a conference such as this and it was well beyond my expectations. Encouraging, enlightening, educational – the speakers were incredible. Thank you so much. I can’t wait for the next one.”
“I joined the livestream & had the most wonderful day listening to your inspiring speakers. This was the first time I had heard of or attended a Church and State conference and I loved it. I hope to buy a copy to own.”
“I was there, an experience I will never forget. The angels were worshipping with us. Speakers were excellent, awake to all that is happening in our nation. Jesus was glorified throughout the whole day and evening.”
“My family thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the insights and expertise of every speaker. It was such a feast for our souls and a truly blessed way to spend a Saturday. We hope to get along in person next time.”
“Do not be conformed to this present world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approve what is the will of God—what is good and well-pleasing and perfect.”
At Church And State conferences, fearless speakers convene to equip Christians and other Truth lovers with knowledge and understanding of the authority and wisdom of Scripture, as well as the lessons taught by history and objective facts.
Prepare to challenge your comfort zone and what the world says with Biblical Truth and wisdom, and be refreshed by generous time for fellowship with faithful believers.
If you are serious about loving your neighbour and seeking first the Kingdom of God, do not miss the next Church And State conference near you.
pulpits aflame
with righteousness
Do you know any pastors who are bold, fearless preachers of righteousness, or want to be more so? We’re networking them to “spur one another on” and “encourage each other“!
CAS hosts a time of prayer, fellowship and specialised training the afternoon/evening before conferences in each city for vocational ministers (part time or full time pastors, priests etc). Other ministry professionals are also welcome. This is a free event, sponsored by generous CAS supporters and senders.
