The summit will feature breakout workshops and discussions led by respected ministry voices and church operations experts, including Ben Stapley, an executive pastor and church consultant, and Mark MacDonald, a church brand strategist. Further, a selection of Ministry Brands’ leading technology partners will also be in attendance and leading breakout sessions:
