FAQs

Got a question? We’re here to help.

  • Who is this is conference for?

    If you’re asking that question, it’s probably for you! Everyone on Berean staff is expected to be a leader, regardless of their role. Similarly, we believe that anyone who feels a weight of responsibility in their local church or ministry is a leader and should be seen, strengthened, and celebrated.

    “Church leaders” don't just serve in traditional ministry roles like pastor, elder, or worship leader. The faithful servants in IT, operations, HR, media, communications, and administration are doing critical Kingdom work. 

    That’s why all sessions and services are relevant to all church staff positions, church leaders and church members. And because the church is not one-size-fits-all, this conference isn’t, either! God works in both large and small congregations in unique ways, and our goal is to be relevant and helpful to you whether your weekly attendance is 25, 250 or 25,000.
