About the Experience

The content and discussions were extremely helpful and engaging. Everyone came with a desire to offer and receive. 10/10

Jay Brooks


Amplify Church

This experience kicks off with a 2-day gathering. Pastors tell us they love the anti-conference feel of these meet-ups: No crowds, no singing, no cheesy gimmicks. Spend a few days away from the ministry whirlwind in fantastic accommodations, eating excellent meals, and connecting with other gifted pastors.

After the gathering, the group will connect via quarterly video calls and via a private Slack channel in the space between.

We’re inviting lead pastors from 10-12 like-minded churches to connect around the 12 core issues that create barriers to church health and growth. You will be both encouraged and appropriately challenged to move your church's mission forward.

The cohort kicks off this fall in Nashville!

Sessions at the
2-Day Gathering

The Unstuck Group will facilitate and guide collaborative discussions around these topics:

Clarifying where your church is in its lifecycle today.
Creating intentional strategies to reach new people.
Creating an invite culture.
Developing a discipleship path.
Crafting a measurable vision.

Additionally, each church will present a ministry snapshot to the group. You can expect to hear what other churches like yours are learning about their current wins and pressing challenges.

Who Should Come?

 

This is an event for lead pastors at churches with an average attendance of 500 or less.

We will offer personalized encouragement and next steps to each pastor based on the challenges the church is currently facing.

In all of the sessions, the goal will be to help you make good decisions about critical concerns and walk away with actionable next steps to move forward.
