What To Expect At The Linger Conference

Can we be honest? It’s a little surreal to be led by God to start an event like this yet have to charge people to attend. Nonetheless, the reality is that conferences aren’t inexpensive to put on, and we’ve got to charge something. Our goal is to make the registration fee as affordable as possible for an amazingly high quality event. We want as many of you to attend as possible because this is going to be an incredible experience!

The Artists & Speakers You Want to Hear
Though we’re still building our roster of speakers/artists/teachers, you’ll see we’ve already assembled some of the most inspiring folks in the realms of ministry and Christian music for Linger Conference. John Piper, Phil Wickham, Jennie Riddle, Matt Chandler, Bethany Dillon, Ben Stuart, Todd Wagner, Lauren Chandler, Shane & Shane, Tullian Tchividjian… We’re excited to bring these wonderful folks to you for two days of undiluted learning, sharing and growing.

Make Plans for Linger Conference 2014:

“It is in the process of being worshiped that God communicates His presence to men.”

If we’re honest, we often think of worship as a structured activity designated “at church only” or maybe as an item on our weekly checklist—no more important than buying groceries or taking out the trash. It isn’t that we don’t love God and don’t want to spend quality time with Him; it’s just that life gets busy. As we juggle our jobs, our children and a million other commitments, we easily relegate spending time with God, only to notice something is missing over time and wonder when God is going to move in our lives. 

 “It is in the process of being worshiped that God communicates His presence to men.” - C.S. Lewis

The concept of lingering in God’s presence isn’t new. We see it throughout scripture, and we all know life makes more sense and we have more peace when we take the time to listen and worship. Worship changes us. It sculpts out a place for God, where He can be present in every aspect of our days. When we pause in His presence, He works miracles in our hearts. Monotony begins to fade and is replaced with a sense of joy and purpose that underlines our moments, our circumstances.

Linger Conference seeks to explore the concept of lingering in the presence of God as part of life-changing worship. 

If you feel drained or like you’re going through the motions without a purpose or an awareness of God’s hand in your life, Linger Conference is for you. 

If you’re energized by worship and learn and grow with likeminded Christians, Linger Conference is for you.

If you’re looking for a fall retreat that will impact the lives of your church group in a lasting, meaningful way, Linger Conference is for you. 

If you’re in church leadership and want to grow and learn so that you can inspire renewed worship with your congregation, Linger Conference is for you.

We’re praying that this conference will spark a hunger for the presence of God in your life—not just as a church-only task or a mundane, weekly To Do item—but a lifelong pursuit of beholding His glory.

For more information and to register, please click here. You’ll find early bird prices for a limited time and a line-up of speakers and artists that’s still growing each week.

Save the date—February 14-15, 2014—because you won’t want to miss the opportunity to hear from these amazing speakers and, well, linger, with other believers. We’re looking forward to seeing you at the 2014 Linger Conference in Dallas, Texas!
