I'm excited for the conference, which is on the theme of The Power of Words and the Wonder of God. In my view, this is a profoundly important topic, worth our best thinking and time.
You can go to DG's conference page and read John Piper's invitation, and also view the schedule and speakers.
One nice thing that the DG folks have done is to post quite a few YouTube videos that contain interviews with the speakers (John Piper, Sinclair Ferguson, Mark Driscoll, Bob Kauflin, Paul Tripp, and Dan Taylor). I've included the links below if you want to check them out:
