Free Stuff Fridays (Nicea Conference)

This week, I’m thrilled to partner with the organizers of the Nicea Conference 2025 to offer an extraordinary giveaway: ten free Conference-Only tickets to this historic event in Istanbul, Türkiye, from October 22–25, 2025.

What Is the Nicea Conference?

The Nicea Conference 2025 commemorates the 1700th anniversary of the First Council of Nicea, where early church leaders affirmed the divinity of Jesus Christ and crafted the Nicene Creed—a cornerstone of Christian faith. Held at the Grand Cevahir Hotel & Convention Center in Istanbul, this gathering aims to honor that legacy and inspire today’s believers to uphold and proclaim the gospel.

What’s Included with a Conference-Only Ticket?

Each Conference-Only ticket, valued at $750, provides:

  • Access to all plenary and breakout sessions
  • A guided day tour of ancient Nicea (İznik)
  • Lunch and snacks for each full day
  • A collection of conference books

Please note: lodging and transportation are not included. Attendees are encouraged to arrange accommodations within walking distance of the venue due to Istanbul’s size and traffic conditions.

Who Will Be Speaking?

The conference features a distinguished lineup of speakers, including:

  • Mark Dever
  • Kevin DeYoung
  • Ligon Duncan
  • Albert Mohler
  • Michael Reeves
  • Leonardo De Chirico
  • Sherif Fahim
  • Keri Folmar
  • Ken Mbugua
  • Augustus Nicodemus
