After South Africa, Germany, Belgium and Norway, the seventh international Christian leadership conference (Christian Leadership Conference CLC) September 2024-4, 6. was held in Budapest between The more than one year of preparation (see earlier our article), the 14 guests from 120 countries enjoyed a meaningful four-day event combined with cultural programs. The "Leader - idol or role model?" question was illuminated by more than 60 scientific presentations from the perspective of different cultures and denominations. The conference was held entirely in English.

In his opening speech, Professor Dr. Volker Kessler a GBFE and that ACF his leader, quoting Dietrich Bonhoeffer, emphasized that as a leader you must be able to disappoint - first of all, if you want to advance the leader into an idol.

Speakers active in Hungary also took part in the five parallel presentations, including Dr. Tibor Héjj, Dr. Gyula Pulay, Dr. Ősz-Farkas Ernő, Dr. Balázs Siba and Emőke Tapolyai. In his closing presentation, Dr. Matt Lundberg, head professor of Michigan's Calvin University, related the issue of the idol and type to the identity inherent in Christ's death and resurrection.

We were pleased that the Pünkösdi Teológiai Főiskola not only could he take on a role as a member of the conference organizing committee, but he could also serve in the morning worship and glorification. The rector of our college, Dr. Paul Gracza along the lines of Proverbs 3,5-6, he encouraged the participants to give greater priority to trust in God than to knowledge and acquaintance. PTF graduate Máté Fehér and his wife led the community in singing.
The conference also offered a number of leisure programs to its participants. A visit to the Dohany Street Synagogue, a boat trip with dinner, a visit to the parliament and a visit to the castle district were included in the list of optional programs.
