Are you ready to find the courage to pursue your God-sized dream? Whether it’s stepping into your calling, building community, or making a lasting impact—this is the place to be.

Hosted by The Dream Collective and Stadia, Pipeline is a half-day experience designed to equip churches with the vision and tools to build a thriving leadership pipeline—one that doesn’t just fill roles, but fuels church multiplication. Many churches today are experiencing a leadership pipeline problem—a lack of clarity, intentionality, and systems to raise up new leaders. Together, we’ll explore how to intentionally identify, develop, and release the next generation of Kingdom leaders who will lead with purpose and multiply what God is doing in your church and beyond. Whether you're building from scratch or refining your process, you’ll walk away with practical strategies, fresh inspiration, and a community of like-minded leaders committed to lasting impact.

Anyone passionate about living at the intersection of gospel and culture.
While our primary audience includes pastors and ministry leaders seeking to cultivate entrepreneurial communities, we welcome artists, founders, cultural leaders, and any dreamer eager to see revival in the Church and a renaissance in culture.

Absolutely! We’ll offer workshops for your entire team—worship leaders, operations, missions, discipleship—so you can divide and conquer, then share insights later. If you're attending solo, there will be plenty of chances to connect with like-minded and like-hearted people. Our hope is that everyone leaves knowing, “I am not alone.”
