Catalyzed to lead.
20% of churchgoers are
entrepreneurially minded—yet less than 1% are being discipled in their work.
This isn’t your typical pastors conference.
Twenty percent of your congregation is entrepreneurially minded—yet less than 1% are being discipled in their work. That’s one in five people who create jobs, solve problems, and influence their community in ways traditional ministry can’t always reach.
Without support from the Church, the pressure to perform causes spiritual drift. They pursue their calling while chasing money, power, and fame—faltering precisely when they need community most.
But here’s what matters: 70% of people believe pastors and entrepreneurs working together could solve the world’s biggest problems. Small businesses are trusted 9x more than politicians and 2x more than churches. Your entrepreneurs aren’t just in your pews—they’re influential voices in spaces where ministry struggles to go.
This conference is built for that partnership. Senior pastors, elders, and faith-at-work leaders will discover how to support entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs attending alongside their church leaders will help shape what discipleship could look like.
You won’t hear empty motivational speeches. You’ll hear from pastors who’ve built thriving entrepreneur ministries and business leaders who’ve been through the fire—together.

What is a Watch Party?
For the Pastors and Entrepreneurs Conference, we know many elder boards, staff teams, or entrepreneurs and their church leaders might want to stream together. If that’s you, grab a conference room with a TV and sign up to host a watch party. Essentially, instead of streaming from your laptop, you’ll stream in a room with others and have the chance to process through discussion questions throughout.
How will I watch the conference?
Leading up to the conference, we’ll send you a link to view the conference via an online video player.
How can I get in contact with the host for the Watch Party I registered for?
Great question! E-mail us at conference@faithdrivenentrepreneur.org and we’ll help you get connected!
Can I change Watch Party locations after I’ve registered for one location?
