In 2025, CBI celebrates its 20th anniversary.
If we were to express what God has done in and through CBI up to this point, and what we wish to focus on even more intently in the next decade, it could be summed up in two words— “Deeper and Further.”
Deeper – Walking Together
Living lives of faith, firmly rooted in the gospel
Further – Illuminating the World
Bringing the love and light of the gospel to places that are hard to reach
With this vision and in celebration of CBI’s 20th anniversary, we will be holding the “Deeper & Further Conference.” We warmly welcome your participation.
