TAMPERE

ISAIAH 9:3

You have multiplied the nation; you have increased its joy; they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest, as they are glad when they divide the spoil.

About the conference

Disciple is a conference, family gathering (as believers of Jesus) and summit for a community of believers centered around Jesus. We believe following Jesus' is the way to see our lives transformed and that his command to go and make disciples of all nations should be at the center of our communities.

Disciple was first held in January 2015 and has been arranged every year since. We’ve been blessed to see God use the conference to inspire and mold a generation of disciples of Jesus. We are passionate to be part of what God is doing and believe He is doing a new thing in our age.

Disciple is arranged in cooperation with different local churches and communities togheter with OPKO

Vision

We’re living in special times. Our God is on the move and working among us. All around the nordic countries we’re hearing stories of young men and women meeting Jesus, seeking God and devoting themselves to a life of following Jesus. God is truly doing a new thing in the midst of an age of anxiety, uncertainty, conflict and gloom. As counter-intuitive as it might seem for somebody caught up with the worries of this world, we believe the appropriate response to our time for those who know the Lord is to rejoice. 

To rejoice in who God is. In what He has done. In what He will do and what He is doing. To rejoice in the middle of difficulty and to rejoice when we see that Jesus is truly on the move and to rejoice in eternal hope we have in Him!

As we prayed over this year’s conference we felt led to the passage in Isaiah 9:1-7 that speaks of the coming King and the change he’ll bring. In the passage God holds out a promise for his people we believe is for our time:

Isaiah 9:3 You have multiplied the nation; you have increased its joy; they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest, as they are glad when they divide the spoil.

There, as we see Jesus moving, our call is to rejoice, to thank God for the beginning harvest and the life that he brings. We hope you’ll join us this year to Rejoice, together with our God.
