 KYCK conference is returning this Spring, and we’re pleased to welcome Dave Jensen, Matt Sparks and Ben Staunton as the guest preachers for this year. Hosted by Katoomba Christian Convention as a livestreamed event, KYCK 20 will feature Bible talks from the book of 1 Thessalonians, on the theme “Past, Present, Future”. Although we are unable to gather physically this year, the new online program promises Bible talks, testimonies, worship in song, and a live Q&A panel that will serve to challenge and equip high schoolers to live out their faith with boldness. Meet Dave Jensen  Dave Jensen works as a pastor at EV Church on the sunny Central Coast of NSW. Prior to working in ministry, he was in the Australian Army for the best part of a decade which is where someone told him the truth about Jesus, and he became a Christian. Dave is married to Sammy and they have 5 kids. He loves telling people about Jesus, Lebanese chicken and the Sydney Roosters.

Sermon: Deconstructing God: How can the Christian sex ethic be 'good'?
