Annie Owens - Westminster Pres. Greenwood, MS - "The BC is a time to recharge with fellow ministers of the Gospel. A great getaway with a great balance of structure and free time. Mark K. helped me to simply come back to Jesus."

Andrew Baxley - First Pres. - Chattanooga, TN - "The BC is like nothing I've ever been to.  I say that because this is my first year in full time youth ministry and therefore my first real youth conference. Being young and new, this conference was especially helpful to me. I got to hear from those who have all the experience that I do not have. It was a refreshing and encouraging time that challenged me to reevaluate my personal methods of ministry and has reinforced my calling."

Adam Leroy - Alexandria Pres. Alexandria, VA - "Thanks! to all who tirelessly poured into our cups sending us home with our cups over flowing and ready again to serve as God has called us to."

Chris Inman - Lakeside Pres. Brandon MS - "Like a breath of fresh air for the heart and soul. I recommend Barnabas as a spiritual "vacation" for every reformed youth worker. It will help refresh your passion for Christ as you pick up great ideas for your youth ministry."

Emily Craft - Highlands Pres. - Ridgeland, MS - "I loved the whole thing especially Christine Rubino!"

Tim Sinclair - Faith Pres. Birmingham, AL - "Few things are more encouraging and helpful to youth ministers as meeting with one another. The BC does a great job of putting youth ministers together in a context that is ideal for connecting by making and developing relationships with each other."

Reba Gregory - Covenant Pres. - Chattanooga, TN - "I loved that there were more forums offered for women this year at the BC. Christine Rubino did an amazing job facilitating her forum and spending one on one time with us. I loved having everything in one building and location.  Seeing the number of new faces is a testament to how effective this conference has been and continues to be to those involved in youth ministry." 

Richard Owens - Westminster Pres. - Greenwood Pres. - "Barnabas is a tremendous opportunity to network and be encouraged in youth ministry. I enjoyed every minute and look forward to next year."

Scott Mosher - Perimeter Church - Atlanta, GA - "What a great week to reconnect with friends and to be fed with no expectations placed upon us to perform. Very refreshing. Very encouraging."

Derrick Harris - McLean Pres. - McLean, VA - "The truth, the community, the purpose, and the friends."
