Don’t think of Renew as a conference. Renew is a gathering, a safe space in the truest sense, for pastors, artists, entrepreneurs, and dreamers who refuse to fit into just one box. It's where your ideas don't have to shrink, where your story matters, and where faith, creativity, and purpose belong together.

More Than An Event

Renew is where movements begin. Where new language is born.
Where you find your people.

This two-day experience is designed to awaken your creative soul and reconnect you to your calling in a community of dreamers just like you. Through powerful worship sessions, insightful intensives, eye-opening experiences, and late-night conversations that turn into collaborations, you'll meet people who make you feel seen and push you toward what's possible.

The best way to bring your God-sized dreams to life is through collaboration: sharing strengths, lifting each other up, and discovering that weaknesses are simply connections waiting to be made.

Intersectional Innovation

The magic happens at the intersection.

Intersectional Innovation is an invitation. What divides us is exactly what we need to bring us together. Your multidimensional self isn't something to manage or minimize. It’s your superpower. At Renew, you'll discover that the most beautiful solutions emerge when different perspectives, backgrounds, and callings converge.

At Renew, we're creating space for these intersections to flourish.
