What makes Ekklesia different from other conferences?

The roundtable discussions.

Space to talk honestly with other leaders, share challenges, pray & learn from one another. This is where many say the real value lies.

Join us in London on 11–12 March.

But so is the creativity, faithfulness, and wisdom God is raising up across the country.

It’s one thing to talk about the discipleship deficit. It’s another to leave with a plan you can take home.

Ekklesia is designed to be practical, thoughtful & grounded in real church life.

You won’t just be inspired. You’ll be equipped!

Many church leaders feel it. A discipleship deficit.

But the problem isn’t the end of the story.

Across the UK churches are finding ways to form deep, resilient disciples.

At #Ekklesia26, you’ll hear from those putting this into practice.
