Firestarter Conversations
Firestarters conversations are held over either one or two days with opportunities to hear the stories of growing churches, attend interactive seminars on factors influencing church growth and opportunities to reflect and discuss your own church and its future growth. Numbers are always kept low to ensure lots of interaction and support from other delegates and those leading the conversation.
Included with the cost of attending a conversation is the option to join a Learning Huddle. Learning Huddles meet fortnightly for 3 months and are aimed at helping those who have attended a conversation to continue to have follow-up and support around the challenges and goals your church is facing.
Each Conversation is £25 per person, which includes the one or two-day event, lunch during the event, and optionally three months of a Learning Huddle.

This year we’re offering these conversations to focus on microchurch and scattered models of church. These conversations are relevant for churches of any shape and size, including conventional/traditional churches who want to think about growing by reaching new people. These conversations might also work well for those who are church planting/pioneering.
Who are the Firestarters Conversations For?
A Firestarters Conversation would be beneficial for:
- Staff and/or leadership teams, especially of lay people and volunteer leaders, to spend 24 hours together with the expectation of fresh energy and renewed vigour.
- Ministers coming along to be inspired, challenged and re-invigorated in what God might do with their leadership.
- Emerging leaders to gain an early experience of churches that are growing fast.
- Small churches needing a reminder that it is churches just like theirs God is using.
- Regional or trans-local leaders wanting to connect with churches in the midst of significant growth.
- Larger churches feeling stationary or stagnated and wondering why.
- Churches with good momentum and wanting to capitalise on that.
