BBFI Central Office Hosts Third Annual BBFI Healthy Church Conference 

The BBFI Central Office hosted the third annual Healthy Church Conference on February 27, 2025. This virtual event, which was live-streamed, brought together ministry leaders from across the country and around the globe to discuss key principles of building and maintaining a healthy church. Several BBFI state fellowships utilized the conference content in their state fellowship meetings throughout February and March, allowing pastors and ministry leaders to engage in meaningful discussions and apply the insights shared.

This year’s theme, “Building Churches That Thrive,” emphasized the importance of strengthening churches in every area of ministry. Nine dynamic speakers presented concise, impactful 10-minute sessions on critical topics such as missions, Scripture, leadership development, financial health, digital ministry, shepherding leadership, church planting, lifelong learning, and engaging with today’s cultural landscape. These topics were carefully selected to address the real challenges churches face today while offering practical, biblical solutions.
