The second annual Spark Conference is ready for launch Thursday, Aug. 12! Like 2020, Spark is an online church-equipping conference. Churches, leaders and individuals can join the conference premiere at 9 a.m. Aug. 12 from their phones, tablets or computers across the nation. In 2020, SPARK had 208 host sites around the world with over 2,800 registered and potentially several thousand more watching through local SPARK events.
Watch the Premiere
This event provides over 40 breakouts in areas such as evangelism, next generation, discipleship, women’s ministry, music/worship, missions/church planting, church security and more. Church leaders are encouraged to join this free event online.
During August, all keynotes, breakouts, and accompanying downloadable materials will be available for free. For a small fee starting in September, churches, associations and individuals can access the content for 12 months.
Host an Event
In addition to watching on the premiere date, church leaders can host their own events for their churches the day of or later in the year (for free during August; for a fee starting Sept. 5). The Georgia Baptist Mission Board has suggestions for hosting local Spark events that will fit the context of a church or associational gathering.
