Two common words…but one incredible idea. As married couples, our love is to show a dying world the embodiment of God’s sacrificial, compassion and grace-filled affection for mankind in the way that He designed it—not on a whim, nor haphazardly—but with thoughtful, intentionality and purpose.

CONFERENCE INFORMATION

The NDCBF 2021 Intentional Love Marriage Conference was created to promote and reinforce the Biblical worldview of marriage. Throughout the conference, we hope to identify the common marital challenges and offer practical steps to overcoming them in order grow spiritually as individuals and as couples. Our prayer is that as Christian marriages are strengthened, they begin to both glorify God, as well as become positive examples to other married couples and singles who desire marriage.

Pastor Blake and Dr. Ronique Wilson, Keynote Speakers

After a seven year “career” in corporate America, Blake was influenced by his pastor, Rev. Bill Lawson, at Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church, to turn from climbing the corporate ladder to learning, loving, and serving Jesus Christ.

Blake earned his Bachelor of Arts in political science from Southwest Texas State University, and his Master of Arts in Christian Education from Dallas Theological Seminary.

Blake has served in Youth Ministry since 1994. He was formerly the co-director of The Center for Youth Ministry at the College of Biblical Studies where he taught for seven years. Currently, he is the pastor of Crossover Bible Fellowship in Houston, Texas. Additionally, he has been heavily involved in curriculum development for youth and family life ministries. Blake is also well-known for his class entitled, The Biblical View of Sex, which he has taught to NBA players from the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs teams. In addition, Blake shares his gifts and talents at student camps and retreats with former NBA players, Allan Houston, and Charlie Ward.

Blake is married to Dr. Ronique Wilson, a clinical psychologist, who has partnered with Blake in ministry since 1994. Blake and Ronique have two children, a daughter, Reagan Faith Abrielle Wilson and a son, Robert Chance Priest Wilson. They reside in Houston, Texas.
