JULY 29 - AUGUST 1, 2024

Regardless of whether you are a beginner in the pulpit or a seasoned preacher, this conference is designed to help you take proclamation to the next level. Each participant will preach two times during the conference and receive personalized instruction for honing the preaching craft. In addition, plenary speakers will share best practices. Special times of worship and anointing for preaching the Word will be a highlight of our time together.

If cost is an issue, we have partial scholarships available for GMC pastors and full scholarships for GMC pastors in the Spanish preaching track.

“Participating in a preaching conference and sharing a sermon with a
larger group of peers has been instrumental in my growth as a
preacher and has deepened my relationship with God."

- Samuel Hicks, Lubbock, Texas

“I will admit that at first thinking about preaching to a group of
preachers was a bit intimidating and brought on a bout of nerves
that I had not previously dealt with. However, once I started the
message, it was one of the most amazing experiences I have had.”

- Cindy Rednour, Sebastian, Florida

“I would encourage anyone considering the Next Level Preaching
Conference to go. To be surrounded by your peers and hearing
the feedback of positivity as you deliver the word of God is priceless.
I hope to see you there.”

- Derek Blackmon, Chandler, Texas
