Christian Finance Conferences

The short version: the largest gathering for Christian financial professionals is the Kingdom Advisors annual conference, now rebranded Redeeming Money, next running 23-25 February 2027. The best value for ordinary investors is the Faith Driven Entrepreneur Conference on 18 September 2026, which costs $29 in North America and is free through a partner church. Several well-known “conferences” turn out to be peer groups or courses.

Dates and prices below were checked against each organizer’s own registration pages in late July 2026. Several long-standing events have changed names, formats, or ceased entirely, so verify before booking travel.

The big one, under a new name

The Kingdom Advisors Annual Conference is now branded Redeeming Money, on its own domain. If you search the old name you will find stale pages.

	Detail
2026	11-13 February 2026, Orlando World Center Marriott — past
2027	Tuesday 23 to Thursday 25 February 2027. City and venue not yet announced
2026 pricing	“The first 600 people to purchase get the special price of $990”
Format	35+ breakouts, 5 general sessions, 5 meals included, accepted for 8 hours of industry credit
Students	$790 covers one student; around 250 students expected at the job fair

The 2026 speaker list gives a fair sense of the range: Michael Kitces, Bob Doll, David Bahnsen, Finny Kuruvilla, Randy Alcorn, Bob Goff, Carey Nieuwhof, and Jon Tyson. That mix — practice-management technicians alongside pastors and authors — is what distinguishes it from a standard advisor conference.

Two practical notes. Spouses need a separate full ticket; Kingdom Advisors does not sell partial access. And if you hold the CKA® designation, attending covers your entire 10-hour annual continuing education requirement in one trip, which changes the economics considerably. Kingdom Advisors claims record attendance for 2026 but publishes no number.

What is actually upcoming

Most Christian finance events cluster in February and then again in the autumn. Here is what has not yet happened as of late July 2026.

Faith Driven Entrepreneur Conference — Friday 18 September 2026. The best-value event in this space. It runs online with in-person watch parties, and last year drew over 7,000 entrepreneurs across 600+ locations. Regional pricing as listed: Americas $29, Europe $29, Asia-Pacific $15, Africa $10 — and free if you attend through a partner church. Prices step up after the first 500 global registrations. Speakers include John Maxwell, David Green of Hobby Lobby, and Chris Tomlin.

NACFC Conference — 7-9 October 2026, The Ark Encounter, Williamstown, Kentucky. The National Association of Christian Financial Consultants, which champions biblically responsible investing explicitly. Cost runs from free to $349, with the free tier bundled into membership ($250 to $950 a year). Members get discounts on eVALUEator and on the Eventide courses.

Praxis Africa Gathering — 28-30 October 2026, Nairobi, $199. And Praxis Asia Pacific Gathering — 18-20 November 2026, Singapore, $499. Both are invitation-only forums, with limited scholarships available.

Lausanne Workplace Forum for Africa and the Middle East — 6-9 August 2026, Accra, Ghana. $300 to $400 covering all on-site costs including airport transfers and meals. The first event of its kind for these regions, postponed from 2025, with participants selected and deliberately at least half drawn from the workplace rather than ministry.

Looking into 2027: the Outcomes Conference from Christian Leadership Alliance runs 6-8 April 2027 with registration already open at $699 and $899. Generous Giving’s Celebration of Generosity runs 23-25 April 2027 at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs. Acton University runs 21-24 June 2027 in Grand Rapids — general admission $1,500, early bird $1,000, students $700, drawing around 800 attendees from 80+ countries. The Praxis Redemptive Imagination Summit runs 24-26 May 2027 in Napa. And Faith Driven’s “Solving the World’s Greatest Problems” Summit runs 18-20 March 2027.

Investor gatherings that are harder to get into

The Faith Driven Investor Conference ran on 6 February 2026 with the theme “Seeds vs. Silos,” and its 2027 date is not yet announced. Worth understanding the format: it is virtual, hosted locally at watch parties worldwide rather than at a single venue. Pricing started at $35 early bird and rose to $100. The 2026 speaker list included Bear Grylls, Mart Green, and Henry Kaestner.

The Christian Economic Forum is the most exclusive and most expensive. Its 2026 global event ran 19-22 July in Palm Beach with over 300 delegates, and registration is reserved for members only. Membership runs through a pre-application, a final application, and then an invitation, vetted by a committee that balances industries — and it “may be deferred or declined.” Event tiers for 2026 ran $2,250 to $2,750 excluding travel, on top of annual dues of $1,200 for an individual or $5,000 for up to five. Its distinguishing feature is that there are no outside presenters or keynote speakers; all content comes from members.

Praxis runs accelerators rather than conferences. One point of confusion worth clearing up: Praxis and Praxis Mutual Funds are unrelated organizations. The accelerator is a New York nonprofit whose old domain now redirects to praxis.co; the funds belong to Everence. The accelerator has 303 active ventures across 113 countries. Its US business track costs $8,000 per venture with an optional $50,000 investment; its nonprofit track charges no fee at all and provides a $50,000 grant on completion. The Capital Fellowship for investors and philanthropists runs $19,500.

Peer groups, not conferences

Two organizations appear on conference lists but do not run annual conferences as their core product.

C12 operates monthly local business forums plus monthly one-to-one coaching for Christian CEOs. It is invitation-only, with eligibility generally at 10+ employees and over $2 million in revenue, and dues are set locally and deliberately unpublished. Typical tenure runs five to seven years. Its biennial gathering, CURRENT27, runs 31 March to 2 April 2027 at the Gaylord Texan; the 2025 edition drew over 1,700. Note that its old domain is dead — the live site is joinc12.com.

Convene runs peer-advisory teams of 10 to 15 plus monthly coaching, with over 2,000 member companies across 25+ years. Pricing is unpublished, but its regional gatherings are cheap and open: Denver 30 July 2026 at $50, Houston 20 August at $50, Bellevue 16 September at $95 to $145.

If what you actually want is sustained accountability rather than three days of content, these are the better format — and considerably more expensive over time.

Things that look like events but are not

This section will save you some searching.

Sound Mind Investing holds no conferences or in-person events at all. Its only “event” is a free on-demand video workshop of about ten minutes. It is a subscription newsletter service — $119.95 a year for Basic — founded in 1990 in Louisville at Larry Burkett’s suggestion, taking its name from 2 Timothy 1:7.
The Eventide Center for Faith & Investing runs courses, not conferences. Its financial advisor course earns 7 hours of CFP® and IWI® credit plus 3 additional hours. Prices are not published.
Faith & Co. is a film and curriculum project from Seattle Pacific University, not an event, and appears dormant — its last post was April 2025.
BAM Global is entirely virtual now, with a free Connect session on 11 November 2026 and its next summit on 6 May 2027. There is no in-person congress in 2026 or 2027.
The Impact Foundation runs cohorts, not summits — “The Table” is a seven-week virtual cohort capped at 20 participants, each contributing a $10,000 charitable grant into a pooled fund that the group then allocates by vote.

Whether any of this is worth the airfare

For a working advisor, the calculation is straightforward: Redeeming Money at $990 covering a full year of continuing education competes well against $600 to $1,600 for screening software plus separate CE. For an individual investor, the $29 Faith Driven Entrepreneur ticket is the only entry point priced for a normal household budget, and the partner-church route makes it free.

What you get from a conference that you cannot get from a podcast is other people. “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another” (Proverbs 27:17). The image is abrasive on purpose — sharpening involves friction and material loss on both sides. Conferences do that when you talk to someone who disagrees with you, and they do nothing at all when you sit through sessions confirming what you arrived believing.

Hebrews frames gathering as an obligation with a purpose attached: “let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together” (Hebrews 10:24-25). Consider how — the writer expects deliberate thought about what the meeting is for. Applied to a $990 registration, that means going with two or three specific questions rather than a general hope of inspiration, and booking one honest conversation rather than nine sessions.
