THEME & SPEAKERS
"Christlikeness: The Doctrine of Sanctification" with Mike Riccardi and Steve Swartz
September 27, 2025 in Bakersfield, California
What does it mean to "mature in faith?" What does in mean to "grow in Christ?"
Join us as the Steadfast Bible Conference focuses our sights on what the New Testament spends much effort in describing to readers on the process of growing in faith–what we call the doctrine of Sanctification. We will consider God’s role and the role of believers in this process and how Christians are encouraged to pursue lives of holiness and godliness in obedience to our Savior.
This year we are delighted to welcome Dr. Mike Riccardi of Grace Community Church, along with our own pastor Dr. Steve Swartz, for a full day of teaching and fellowship. You are sure to be encouraged through the preached and taught Word of God, the congregational singing of God’s people, and the community of local believers as we turn our attention to Christ’s commands and Paul’s words found in 1 Corinthians 15:58, “Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”
