Embrace the Race
2 Timothy 4:7-8
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord the righteous Judge will award to me on that day…”
As ministry leaders, we are still running that race every day, but you don’t have to run alone. The Digital Ministry Conference is a 2-day event leading up to the NRB Convention where digital ministry professionals from all over can grow together. At the DMC you’ll get practical training from ministry leaders with a track record of growth, find a safe and encouraging place to connect, and ask questions. You’ll also get a chance to celebrate the work that goes on (often behind the scenes) every day to drive digital impact.
Join Other Impact Driven Ministry Leaders
March 7-8, 2022
At the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville

Why You Need to Send Your Team
As a leader, you know your people are the secret to success, and you need to equip them with the skills and tools they need to do their job. You also need to encourage them and celebrate their work, to keep them motivated to press on when things get tough. At the DMC your team will find both.
We offer highly practical sessions on the topics that matter most to your ministry. (watch some highlights from last year if you don’t believe us).
We emphasize community and provide opportunities for your team to connect with others who will become lifelong friends and mentors.
We understand the work that happens behind the scenes and celebrate with those who show up every day and put in the work required to run the race well.
Why You Don’t Want To Miss It
As someone who is tasked will bringing your ministry’s mission and vision to life, it can feel as if you’re just running on a treadmill in the basement by yourself. Attending the DMC will let you see you’re not running alone. If you’ve ever wished for a place to meet other digital leaders, hear what is working for them, and ask your questions. This is that place!

As in a case study showing how one ministry increased conversion rates over 1,000% using A/B testing. Or how another ministry was able to increase email engagement by 300%. Watch some of these short sessions from last year to see what kind of impact the DMC will have for your team.
