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.
