CBA Fall Family Gathering

November 8 | Pre-Gathering Training at 3:00 PM | Family Gathering Meeting at 4:00 PM

God is working in your church. You are fully engaged and giving it your all. God is using church leaders like you to grow His Kingdom. Because you are so invested, it can be hard to know how God is at work in our region and in other churches. Our Family Gathering focuses on perspective, hearing how God is at work all around us, and collaboration: the conviction that God will do more through us collectively than individually.

Fight Club: Church Tech Made Easy

Starts September 28

If the words livestream, AI, QR code, or cloud storage make you want to hand your phone to someone under 25, you're not alone. Many pastors and church leaders feel overwhelmed by how quickly technology changes. The good news? You don't have to become a computer expert to lead effectively in today's world. You just need to know a few practical tools that can save you time, simplify ministry, and help you connect with people more effectively.

Fight Club: Gameplan for Evangelism

Starts September 17

It is the one thing nearly every church and church leader knows they need to do more of - Evangelism. It is intimidating to some, and thrilling when done well. It is the one expression of obedience we can't do in heaven. The opportunity for the gospel may be as great as at any time in recent memory. Prepare yourself and your church to develop a practical and step-by-step plan to reach the lost and create a culture in your church that values what God values most: the eternal destiny of all.
