At Exponential Orlando 2023, we’ll network with other church planters and get equipped and inspired for our coming year of ministry at World Impact.
Something is drawing us to Orlando on March 6-9, and it’s not just the sunshine. We’ll be uniting with other Christian leaders and church planters at the Exponential Orlando 2023 Conference, which will explore the theme “Lost Cause: Reviving Evangelism.” This event will challenge us to revitalize our efforts to share the gospel and bring others to Christ. We can’t wait!
Reviving Evangelism: Exponential 2023 Theme
While we embrace evangelism in our philosophy and ministry, it’s no secret that many people — inside and outside of the church — have started to adopt a negative attitude about the topic. In recent years, there’s been a lot of debate around evangelism, leaving many churches feeling like it’s a taboo subject.
The goal of Exponential Orlando 2023 is to provide pastors, church planters, and ministry leaders with the practical tools and inspiration they need to be more effective in their evangelism efforts. As leaders with the mission of urban church planting, we’re eager to discover the latest resources and connect with others in our industry.

The conference will feature keynote speakers such as Derwin Gray and Rick Warren, as well as workshops led by other notable figures in the field of church planting, leadership, and evangelism.

- David Platt
