The Tennessee State Lectureship convened at the Glenstone Lodge, in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, September 7-9, 2006. It was a glorious weekend for nearly 100 registered attendees. This year’s lectureship was hosted by the East Tennessee Area Churches of Christ – Alcoa, Central, McDonald Drive, Scarboro, and Sevier Drive, led by James Steele (Scarboro), as the overall Event Coordinator.  

The attendees were spiritually uplifted and edified by sermons and workshops revolving around the 2006 conference theme, “It’s All About Him.” Discussion areas focused on how Jesus must be at the center of our purpose, our patience, our prayers, our promises, our lives, and our congregations. 

Saints who have inspired others to walk the Christian walk – “Hard Fighting Soldiers” and “Legends” – were honored for their service, dedication, and shining examples. Six recipients of the Legend Awards and five recipients of the Hard Fighting Soldier Awards were recognized during the formal banquet. 

The life and the light of the Churches of Christ must always be preserved, as we strive to glorify, edify, and evangelize through similar conferences throughout the year.
