Although this shift was abrupt, we are embracing the invitation to tackle the challenges of adapting, virtually, to a new way of working.Īt G3-Gather, Grow and Go-, we are committed to you and your team’s ability to navigate this unfolding dynamic by facilitating new virtual experiences. Daily, we are required to redefine what it means to work together as a team and show up in a changing environment.

The feed and other details regarding the G3 schedule will be available to you at has never been a more important time, personally and professionally, for us to look at how the world has dramatically shifted in such a short period of time. You can likewise join us for the 2016 G3 Conference on the Trinity starting tomorrow. If you’re interested, you can likewise find archives from the last three years of the G3 Conference on the website. As always, we labor in love for the glory of God. It is our desire to educate, encourage, and equip people through God’s Word and good Christian fellowship. I’m grateful to God for blessing this conference. From that first year to our present 4th year set to begin tomorrow, the G3 has filled to capacity each January. Literally thousands of people from nearly 20 countries were watching along with us during that weekend. Our Livestream statistics were astounding to view. People traveled from all across the nation and a couple of different countries. The first year the conference sold out and was at capacity. We envisioned a few churches from our surrounding Atlanta area joining in, but as we approached January of 2013, it became apparent that God had bigger plans. We desired the conference to be a theology conference that would take a specific theme each year and have guest preachers speak on topics connected to that subject. We wanted the conference to be designed for the entire church and we wanted to avoid building upon a superficial foundation of pragmatism. What exactly is G3? It stands for “gospel, grace, and glory.” From the beginning, we wanted to be unashamed about the fact that this conference was not a glorified pep rally for men. We simply started praying and out of much prayer came the weekend theology conference known as – G3.

After the month passed, we examined the goals and came to the conclusions that we didn’t reach the intended goals. Through prayer with a fellow pastor in my church and planning, we launched a “Missions in March” conference that was held each consecutive Monday in March. When asked about the conference, I simply explain that upon arriving back in the Atlanta area to serve as pastor of the church where I grew up as a boy, I desired to see a good theology conference in this area. I will say that we have a tremendous amount of help from a dedicated church family who sees the vision and mission of the conference and desires to serve fellow Christians from around the world each January. I don’t believe the success of the G3 Conference is based on my ability to put together a good conference. My answer is typically, “I don’t know.” That is not false humility, but genuine honesty. If you were unable to register this year for the G3, I would encourage you to watch live through the weekend as the conference will be streaming from .Įvery year I receive questions in person and through e-mail about how to put together a conference. The normal schedule of articles will pick up once again next week. Therefore, I will not be posting any other articles. The remainder of this week will be devoted to the 2016 G3 Conference.
