The Sustainable Church Conference

Equipping struggling churches with the practical tools and resources they need to become sustainable. Churches across our city are struggling with sustainability, and too many leaders are navigating that reality alone, without the tools, resources, or direction they need. A sustainable church has the resources it needs to do God's will by advancing His kingdom in the communities He has called it to for generations to come. The Sustainable Church Conference is a hands-on workshop designed to change that. Through two main sessions, two targeted breakouts, and honest conversation with pastors and church leaders who have been there, you will walk away with practical tools, a clear direction, and a renewed sense of what is possible for your congregation. What Will You Walk Away With: You'll receive a free sustainability diagnostic tool for your church. You'll receive a free copy of our new book saving Sacred Space’s a guide for every Church leader who knows something has to change. You will be given access to a sustainability cohort led by experts who will give you the tools you need to build a real pathway to sustainability. You'll connect with peer church leaders facing the same challenges. You'll walk away with practical, ready-to-use tools you can apply. You'll get honest, hands-on guidance from leaders who've faced the same struggles.
