Throughout the bible we see people encounter God and embrace a new calling that changes both their lives and the world around them. Each account reminds us that the call of God is both deeply personal and part of His transforming work in the world: in homes, workplaces, communities, churches, everywhere…

At Stronger Conference 2026 we’ll explore what it means to embrace the call  as God invites us to step forward in Christ, and play our part in His work, in our generation, responding to the passions and dreams we carry in our hearts. Across five days of teaching, insights, worship, and connection (four days online and one day in-person in London, Kings Cross), we’ll be inspired to listen again for his voice, say ‘yes’ to his invitation, and be reminded that God’s call is never walked alone.

Join us for three inspiring days of worship, teaching, and practical learning designed to help churches grow in both depth and number. Whether your parish is urban or rural, large or small, this conference provides a faith-filled environment where clergy and lay leaders can come together to reflect, plan, and be equipped for mission.
Through interactive talks, group exercises, and time for prayer and conversation, you’ll explore themes such as; Creating a prayerful culture of growth, 
Practising fruitful evangelism, Developing engaging worship for all ages, Becoming an inviting and welcoming church, Helping seekers become disciples, 
Planning for sustainable growth.
Alongside structured sessions, there’s space for informal discussion, personal reflection, and networking with others on the same journey.

Silos don't solve the World's greatest problems - Seeds do. 
If you want to invest with conviction to your values—this conference is for you. You won’t be subjected to vague language or soft talk about impact. You’ll hear from investors who’ve wrestled with the same tension you carry. Performance and purpose. Risk and calling. They’ve found fulfilment in the journey.

These faithful stewards face the same pressure you do: to conform, to follow, to chase short-term returns. But they chose a different path—one that aligns with their values and delivers results. They’ve taken real risks, backed bold ideas, and found joy in stewarding capital that builds beyond wealth.

This is where conviction meets community. Where faith meets financial strategy. Where isolation gives way to shared vision.
You’ll leave with practical frameworks, hard-won wisdom, and connections that help you deploy capital in ways that reflect your love of God and people.

Explore how behavioural science addresses complex issues across the public sector. The conference will feature inspiring keynotes on diverse topics, including:

• Systems Approaches and Systems Reform – Professor Cecile Knai
• The Arts, Behavioural Science and Public Health – Professor Daisy Fancourt
• Evidence and Policy in Public Health – Dame Professor Theresa Marteau
• Social Cohesion and Effective Communication – Professor Paul Dolan

Practical workshops will cover meaningful co-production, writing and personal reflection in public health practice, and evaluating behavioural science units. It’s currently a complex and challenging environment in public health. 

In a culture increasingly marked by shallow faith and fleeting commitments, the Church faces a pressing challenge: a growing discipleship deficit. At this year’s Ekklesia, we will confront this crisis head-on, exploring how we help form resilient, Christ-centered disciples in today’s world. Through biblical insights, practical examples and Spirit-led conversation, we’ll explore how to move beyond programmes and help raise a generation of believers who follow Jesus wholeheartedly.
 

The primary paradigm of church and church planting in the New Testament, throughout history, and globally has looked like intentional communities surrendered to the leadership of Jesus proclaiming and demonstrating the Kingdom of God house to house, table to table, and in simple places like street corners, parks, and alleyways.  
Microchurches are not just a strategic innovation to meet the challenges of an increasingly non-christian and missionary context, but the rediscovery of something old and wired into us as the priesthood of all believers, hungry for deep fellowship with other disciples and a place in God’s mission. 
Whether you’re curious about microchurches, leading a microchurch, multiplying a network, or dreaming of how your existing church can pivot to or incorporate micro, join with dozens of other practitioners and tribes for shared learning and encouragement at the Microchurch Conference.

Multiply Estates Mission gathers together all those with a shared heart to serve estates and low-income communities.
To serve an estate community is to be Kingdom-shaped. To live as Jesus lived, moving in and becoming a neighbour. The Word became flesh and lived among us. Multiply Estates Mission is a chance to gather together with a family who share this call of creating loving communities one day at a time.
It’s for leaders who are settled in, at home on the estate. It’s for leaders who are yet to feel at home, and those who don’t know where to start. It’s for everyone, so bring your team.
