2009 Christian Conferences and Bible Colleges more popular than ever before!

Jan. 21, 2009 - PRLog -- As we enter 2009 we enter into a season of uncertainty and the unknown, especially when it comes to the economy. Many people are looking at how to invest their resources more effectively, looking at ways to stay upbeat with so much talk of doom and gloom. It seems that people from all over the world aren't just looking into stocks and bonds, but an increasing amount are investing in inner health and and finding a bigger purpose.

According to Sam Thompson of ChristianConferenceSearch.com "over the past 12 months there has been an increase in attendees in Christian Conferences, not just in the US but also in Europe and Asia." When asked why this is, he says that "more and more people want to look to a higher hope, and obtain that deeper sense of peace that they are reminded of at these conferences".

It seems that Christian Conferences aren't the only place where people are finding peace and purpose. According to Ben James of BibleCollegeGuide.com enrollments at Bible Colleges and Christian Universities have increased, especially over 2008 and leading into 2009. According to James "people are re-evaluating their priorities, thinking about and investing into their futures rather than just thinking about today".
