THE CONFERENCE
3 DAYS OF POWERFUL TALKS, INSPIRING MUSIC,
PROVOCATIVE WORKSHOPS & COMMUNITY-BUILDING
​
​We'll explore...
What vital and transforming worship means from a progressive or Convergence perspective, and what the role of music can and should play in the context of worship, spiritual formation, and social transformation.
We will be especially focused this year on finding, using, and creating the songs we need to respond to this particular moment in history - a moment in which “speaking (singing) Truth to power in love” is needed perhaps more than ever.
We will sing new community songs created specifically for this time in our history and explore together how the songs we sing in worship (and beyond) can empower and encourage us as we live out the biblical call to “do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with our God.”
We'll share...
Ideas and best practices, soulful worship, and the blessings of being in community, networking, and encouraging each other in our respective ministries.​
There will be...
Keynote addresses, opportunities for songwriters and composers to share their own material, and opportunities to create new music and liturgy together during the event. Many new musical resources will be available, and there will also be an emphasis on encouraging and equipping local congregations to create new music and art and liturgy in their own local contexts.

As musicians, this is an incredible opportunity to hear from pastors and worship leaders about what they really need and how we can help.

I believe in this conference because I believe God, our mission, and our community is worthy of better lyrics and better music. These 3 days can help us get there.

Worship Leader
When I attended this a few years ago, I was introduced to so much amazing progressive music which we've been using in my church ever since. So glad it's back!
