In a cultural moment marked by spiritual fatigue, cultural upheaval and ever-increasing demands on those in ministry, ANCHORED exists to restore and renew. Hosted by Talbot School of Theology, this conference offers something more than strategies — it offers soul-deep strength. Rooted in the promise of Hebrews 6:19, ANCHORED calls pastors, church leaders, alumni and the broader community back to the unshakable hope of the Gospel as the sustaining force for faithful ministry in a disoriented world.

Conference Overview

Join us May 12-14, 2026 on the campus of Biola University for ANCHORED — a conference crafted for those on the frontlines of ministry who need more than just fresh ideas. They need renewed hearts. Unlike many pastoral conferences that focus solely on leadership techniques or ministry trends, ANCHORED uniquely integrates theological depth, psychological insight and spiritual formation, equipping leaders to thrive — not just survive — in today’s complex ministry landscape.

This gathering will confront today’s challenges with biblical conviction and practical wisdom. Whether it's addressing addiction and trauma, navigating cultural complexities in multiethnic churches, defending the integrity of Scripture, or cultivating enduring rhythms of prayer. ANCHORED offers a rare fusion of soul care, scholarship and leadership clarity.

Expect sessions that go beyond the stage — engaging dialogue, theological reflection, relational space for connection and renewal. If you’re longing to lead from a place of depth in a shallow world, ANCHORED is for you.
