Exponential Regionals are designed to make the main stage programming at our national events in Orlando and Los Angeles more accessible to church leaders in local geographic areas. These gatherings are for leaders who are unable to attend our national events OR need a more affordable option to bring their entire team. These regional gatherings are more intimate and include breakout conversations to help unpack the main session content in more detail. These events are shorter in length than our national events to help leaders save on travel expenses BUT are still filled with the full punch of the national event theme. These gatherings include 5 main sessions and multiple conversation breakouts.

Join hundreds of leaders for inspiration, encouragement and equipping at Exponential’s Houston Regional church planting conference in League City, TX. Register early as space is limited at these smaller, more intimate gatherings.

The church of the future needs leaders of vision, courage and faith. Join Luis Palau, Danielle Strickland, Jossy Chacko, Dave Ferguson and many more incredible leaders for LAUNCH, in partnership with Exponential this November. Following the success of 'Becoming 5' in 2016, LAUNCH Church Multiplication Catalyst (in partnership with Exponential) will gather 800 leaders from across Europe, tired of looking at empty nets in our continent and culture; to go where nobody else is going, and to do what nobody else is doing, to reach those we are not yet reaching.

Dream Big is the theme for Exponential 2017. Jesus challenged us with a big dream. If He had sketched out His big dream for His Church, we think it would be something like, “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes up on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8). The dream that Jesus gave His followers was the dream of a movement. Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, the ends of the earth—that is a very big dream! We are here because of that dream. As Christ followers and leaders of His church, Jesus is asking us to also dream big!

Join us in 2017 as we dive into what it looks like to dream big for your church—and the Kingdom.
