The Signs of The Times Conference (SoTT) is a one-week inspirational lifestyle conference that focuses on showing that the biblical signs indicating the nearness of Christ’s second coming are all around us and that we should live our lives at home, at work, and in our communities as people preparing to meet the King.

People are excited about the SoTT because, it brings together under one roof some well-known experts and international speakers to offer holistic and life-transforming presentations in various aspects of this subject. Coming right at the festive season, this registered conference uniquely combines the seriousness of business, the leisure of a family retreat, and the renewal of timely spiritual upliftment.

The Signs of The Times Conference is a registered conference (meaning attendees pay a registration fee to attend). The conference is organized for two major categories of people:

The Signs of The Times Conference is organized by The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference, a volunteer initiative by young Batswana professionals with a passion for wellness and lifestyle education.

The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference is a non-profit company lawfully registered in the Republic of Botswana. It aims at assisting individuals to positively change their lifestyles in accordance with the latest or “present” scientific health research and sound biblical principles. "Present truth" demands lifestyle changes.

In view of the present state of affairs in our world, the social unrest and spiritual lethargy plaguing our society, The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference, a legally registered company, is conducting this eye opening event as part of its corporate social and spiritual responsibility to the nation.

As stated earlier, The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference is a volunteer initiative of five young Batswana professionals with a passion for wellness and lifestyle education. In the summer of 2003, at a spiritual event in Artesia, “the Batswana quintet” (as they’re affectionately known) conceived the idea of starting annual conferences on Lifestyle education in Botswana. Their dream was to promote a holistic approach to wellness that is anchored on the Eight Laws of Health. Two years later, in 2005, that dream became a reality when they conducted their first conference at Otse Police College.

Since 2005, they have conducted annual Lifestyle Conferences on a wide variety of themes. These events have attracted hundreds of mostly youth and young adults from Botswana, South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. This year’s Signs of The Times Conference is, thus, the 15th Lifestyle Conference that has been organized by The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference.

No, The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference (the organization behind the SoTT event), is NOT sponsored by or affiliated to any political party, religious entity, or denomination. It is a legally registered non-profit company that seeks to bring about wellness and lifestyle education. Although the nature of the topics presented have a bearing on issues pertaining to our well-being as Africans and to our spirituality in our relationship with God, the Signs of The Times Conference is NOT sponsored by any political party or denomination. All are invited, regardless of political and religious affiliation.

Also, even though the Signs of The Times Conference (SoTT) is solely hosted and financially sponsored by The Present Truth Lifestyle Conference, any member of the society and any organization that feels impressed by the work we are doing is more than welcome to partner with us and offer their contribution—whether in cash or kind. This would go a long way to help subsidize the conference and make it affordable to our main target audience—African youth and young professionals.

Depending on the theme of the year, anyone, anywhere on the globe, who demonstrates expertise and resourcefulness on the subjects at hand, very easily attracts our ever-searching eye. Believing in excellence, we seek to bring capable professionals who can assist us in our objective of holistic transformation in the lives of attendees.

Thus, for example, at this year's Signs of The Times (SoTT), you will find presenters and guest speakers from various backgrounds. The common thread in their qualifications for the event is that they all excel in their fields and are highly respected and are in demand for what they have to offer.

As indicated earlier (Question 2), the Signs of The Times Conference is for ANYONE who seeks transformational change in their personal, professional, or spiritual lives, or for anyone looking for practical life skills to adapt to the present challenging times.

Our target audience usually includes youth & young professionals, opinion leaders, policy makers, corporate & religious leaders, members of parliament, business personnel, professionals, and anyone else sensing the need for a new way of doing things in response to the clear signs all around us. Additionally, organizations or institutions that care about the holistic health and well-being of their members can sponsor them to attend the event.

The Signs of The Times Conference (SoTT) is a one-week event that takes place from December 22-29, 2019, at Avani & Cresta Hotels, Gaborone, Botswana. The registration fee covers seven day hotel accommodation, meals, seminars. Because our goal is to add value to people’s lives, we have done our best to make the cost affordable for the one-week event.

Here are fees:

Standard Registration Fee: P4000
On-Site Registration Fee: P5000

The Signs of The Times is a one-of-a-kind event.

Coming right at the festive season, this registered conference uniquely combines the seriousness of business, the leisure of a family retreat, and the renewal of timely spiritual upliftment.
