Steve Noblett
Steve has been the Executive Director of CCHF since 2007. He has been involved in church planting and Christian leadership development in the U.S., the U.K., southern and central Africa, India, and Central America. In 1993 he founded City Builders Youth Organization, a youth-based Christian community development organization in urban Memphis. "There is no great field of need or opportunity than among the underserved. Christian healthcare to the poor is a major key in helping the church to break out of its bubble and reconnect the world with the message of Christ and His Kingdom." In addition to his work with CCHF, Steve and his wife, Victoria, continue to work with urban youth in a under-resourced area of Memphis. They have two grown daughters and a foster-son, all of whom love Jesus, and are committed to serving Christ by serving others.
WORKSHOP ABSTRACT:
“The earth is the Lord’s…and all who dwell in it.” God has one great mission, and it is global. From God’s perspective, it is all domestic. America is a growing mission field that is a significant and strategic part of God’s global mission to fill the earth with His glory through the knowledge of His son. This session discusses ways medical Christians are living out the gospel through healthcare in areas of strategic need here in the United States, and how many of those efforts tie in to advancing Christ’s kingdom globally.

PLENARY ABSTRACT:
There are two important breakthroughs that every aspiring servant of Christ must have before they step into the rigors of mission.
Medical training dominates the most formative years of our adult lives. It is competitive, stressful, and often isolating. It is not only a time when you gain skills and knowledge, it wires your approach to life and ministry. This session brings to light ways God uses those internal formations, and addresses issues of character, motivation and perspective that can become hinderances to medical Christians who want to serve Christ. The two breakthroughs every one of us need give us an unshakable confidence that comes from living in the favor of God.
