BISHOP T. D. JAKES HOSTS NATIONAL MEN’S CONFERENCE

Thousands of men to attend this event that aims to empower and impel men toward achieving their dreams

Dallas, TX — For men who are looking to revitalize their faith and family lives as well as their financial and business skills, they don’t want to miss the popular For Men Only, a three-day conference for men of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities. Hosted by The Potter’s House of Dallas, the conference, now in its third year, will be held Thursday, March 6 through Saturday, March 8, 2008, at the luxurious Gaylord Texan Resort and Conference Center in Grapevine, Texas. The theme is Manifest, based on Romans 8:19, where men were advised to reveal themselves as sons of God.

During the private all-male gathering, Bishop T. D. Jakes, founder and senior pastor of The Potter’s House, will share matters of the heart that relate to men and the challenges they face.  Other Christian and business leaders will offer advice and teachings through various seminars.  The line-up of speakers includes:  Dr. Bill Winston, Founder and Pastor of Living Word Christian Center in Forest Park, Illinois; Bishop Kenneth Ulmer, Senior Pastor of Faithful Central Bible Church in Inglewood, California; Pastor Ed Young, Senior Pastor of Fellowship Church in Grapevine, Texas; Bishop Noel Jones, Pastor of City of Refuge Church in Gardena, California; and the incomparable Bishop T. D. Jakes, Senior Pastor and Founder of The Potter’s House of Dallas, Inc.  Seminar topics will center on faith, family, finance, and business.

Evening sessions are designed to assist the men in claiming God’s vision and ultimate goal for their lives.  This will be accomplished through music presented by William Murphy, one of the most in-demand singers in the country, and through wise, inspirational words.

No conference is complete without a relaxing activity and For Men Only offers just that. The For Men Only golf tournament takes place on March 6, 2008, at 8:00 a.m. at The Golf Club at Castle Hills in Lewisville, Texas. Space is still available for men who want to enjoy eighteen holes and the fellowship of other lovers of the game.   

Thousands of men from national and international regions are expected at this unique conference. All men, regardless of religious belief or denomination, are encouraged to attend. Registration for the conference and golf tournament is available online at www.tdjakes.org or by calling 1-800-BISHOP2.
