I am always grateful to participate in these kind of conferences, because of the fruitful cross-fertilization that results from discussing familiar texts with several different scholars. Michael was sharing today about Temple imagery in the Sermon on the Mount--a new perspective to me, but convincingly argued. Dr. Hahn was pointing out the parallels of the blessings of Matt 5 and the woes of Matt 23. Too many to be coincidental!

Three great doctors of the Catholic Church.
We really enjoyed your informative and inspirational discussions from Matthew and the OT.
May God continue to bless your ministries and vocations.

We have been to many FOT conferences in the past 3 years and all over TX. We have always enjoyed listening to all of you. This is our favorite one yet! You all did an awesome job and made the Gospel of Matthew come alive for all of us. Thanks so much for your devotion to Scripture and helping us to appreciate it also. God Bless you!
Gee, wish I was there!
What a great conference! So much information to absorb! Thanks to y'all for coming to Texas this weekend. Sorry for the lousy weather Sunday. Please plan to come back soon.
A great time was had by all!
Thanks and you're welcome to all!
Hey Dr. Bergsma, I greatly enjoyed the conference and was definatly graced. Can't wait for you all to come again but make sure Dr. Pitre comes along next time. Guess he is to famous now that his books out. Joke! Anyway, my wife and I are meeting Calvinist friends tomorrow night. They have been trying to save our souls for over a year now. Cause we are Catholics. They say that Ephesians 1:13 says you are sealed and you cannot lose your salvation now. I still don't have an answer but if you can think of one I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again for great conference!
