SUMMARY:INSPIRE 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join special guest Ken Braddy and more for our annual state evangelism conference\, INSPIRE. \n\nRSVP TODAY \n\nRenewing Discipleship Through Groups + Sunday School\nChurches don’t drift into healthy discipleship.\nThey build it—intentionally\, prayerfully\, and together. \nINSPIRE this year is a focused half-day gathering designed to help pastors\, staff\, and leaders strengthen the discipleship heartbeat of their church through groups and Sunday School. Whether your ministry feels stuck\, stretched\, or steady\, this day is meant to bring clarity\, encouragement\, and practical next steps. \nWe’re grateful to welcome Ken Braddy\, Director of Sunday School at Lifeway Christian Resources. Ken has spent decades helping churches rethink how groups actually make disciples\, not just gather crowds. \nHe’ll challenge us to move beyond attendance as the primary scorecard and toward a clearer picture of real discipleship—people who are growing in the Word\, building meaningful relationships\, reaching others\, living generously\, and joining God’s mission. \nSpeaker\n \nKen Braddy\, Director of Sunday School at Lifeway Christian Resources \nDetails\n* Hotel rooms are available onsite at the Wingate. Call 304.808.1000 or visit the website to reserve. \n(We never want costs to keep a church from participating. Limited hotel scholarships are available for churches who need assistance. Email Tim@wvcsb.org to request.) \n* Registration begins at 9 a.m. and we’ll kick off at 9:30 a.m. \n* Lunch and books/resources will be provided. \n* This gathering is designed for pastors\, church staff\, and lay leaders who want to strengthen discipleship in their church. \n* Space is limited. Register today! \nPre-Event Dinner (Optional)\nFor those who are able to come in the evening before\, we’ll host an informal dinner at 7:00 p.m. This will be a relaxed time to connect with other leaders\, enjoy a meal together\, and hear from our guest\, Ken Braddy. We’ll send more details to those who register. \nAbout INSPIRE\nWith a focus on personal evangelism\, discipleship\, and church health\, INSPIRE exists to encourage pastors and church leaders to keep the gospel at the center of everyday life and ministry. Our speakers share a passion to see rural communities filled with healthy\, missional\, gospel-centered churches and leaders\, for the glory of God.
