  Promise Keepers 1993-2024-2 The attendance of that conference in Indianapolis Indiana at the Hosier Dome was a little over 70,000. Many conferences over the next several years averaged between 60,000 and 70,000. Several conferences were held throughout the year, mostly from early summer into mid-fall. Some conferences were held in open stadiums and others held in enclosed arenas. One was even held at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in Charlotte, North Carolina.

I later learned more about the organization through other radio broadcasts from various stations around my area. The more I heard the more I wanted to attend.

  Good News Brief For Men Greetings Men! It’s been a while. I just want to invite you to return to our devotionals for men. I am starting a series of devotionals for men focused on the “Seven Promises of a Promise Keeper”. This book is still available on Christianbook.com in paperback. This is the latest revised version and I highly recommend that you get this. I get nothing for sponsoring this website. I just know that my life was changed through the study over a period of several weeks. I will be using the first book prior to this revision. Same material, and the revision is somewhat expanded. I invite you to look into these devotionals at goodnewsbriefformen.blogspot.com as we move forward. You don’t have to have this book, (“Seven Promises of a Promise Keeper”) but it would be helpful and encouraging as we move forward. As the director of Men’s Ministries serving at several churches over the years, I have personally witnessed changed lives as we work through the book dur...
