The Growth Conference is a one-day, faith-centered gathering designed to help believers move from awareness to action in their walk with God. The conference creates intentional space for spiritual growth by guiding attendees to become guided by God, rooted in truth, obedient in practice, and anchored in worship as a lifestyle.
Through teaching, honest dialogue, and worship, participants will gain spiritual clarity, practical tools, and renewed conviction to grow deeper in Christ and live out their faith with intention.
“In a word, what I’m saying is, Grow up. You’re kingdom subjects. Now live like it. Live out your God-created identity. Live generously and graciously toward others, the way God lives toward you.”
-Matthew 5:48
The purpose of The Growth Movement is to equip participants with practical resources and actionable tools, ensuring they leave not only inspired and empowered, but also prepared to apply what they've learned to both their personal and professional lives.
Our vision is to create a space where women can learn from and be empowered by other women who are experts in their fields. By sharing valuable knowledge and insights in a clear and accessible way, these workshops and conferences will not only equip women with skills for personal growth but also inspire the confidence to share their newfound wisdom with others.
