At Alpha, we know firsthand the weight of ministry leadership.
You pour out, you intercede, you serve, and you carry the beautiful yet challenging call of helping others step further into knowing Jesus – and it often feels 24/7. What if you could set aside 48 hours to be reignited as a leader?
You Can.
That’s why we created The Alpha Conference! Every year, we build an experience designed to serve you – not just as a ministry leader, but also as a follower of Jesus. On July 23 and 24, 2025, leaders from across the world will gather in Franklin, Tennessee for two soul-renewing days of encounter, prayer, workshops, encouragement, and fun!

2025 Alpha Conference
Alpha is a space where people outside the church can explore life and the Christian faith in a friendly, open, honest, and informal environment. Alpha is primarily run by churches and hosted in places like church halls, bars, coffee shops, prisons, schools, and homes. Typically, Alpha has ten sessions and includes food, a short talk about the basics of the Christian faith, and a discussion at the end of each session in which guests are encouraged to share their thoughts and perspectives without fear of judgement. Millions of people have tried Alpha in more than 100 countries. Alpha runs in every part of the global church, including the Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church, and all mainline Protestant denominations.
If you are longing to experience spiritual renewal in the local church, hungry to see God work in a post-Christian world, and looking for ways to reach your community for Jesus, this conference is for you.
Yes – Join the Alpha Conference Serve Team! We’re looking for friendly faces to partner with us in extending hospitality in every aspect to make our conference guests feel welcomed. More details here.
No. This is a unique conversation for the entire Church. We will showcase leaders and communities who are embracing a new dependence on prayer and work of the Holy Spirit. You will hear stories of churches who are reclaiming the power of listening and rediscovering the art of hospitality. Together we will celebrate the unprecedented movement toward growing unity in the Church across every dividing line.
The Alpha Conference 2025 is July 23-24 at Church of the City, 828 Murfreesboro Road, Franklin, TN 37064

Though we love Alpha and are obviously biased toward it, we even think a conference like that would be a little boring. No, this is a conversation around what we are facing as the church today in America. At Alpha, we work with so many churches from so many different denominations and contexts. In recent years, we have noticed a rising hunger across them all. If you are looking to be equipped and resourced by Alpha please register for one of the conference workshops.
Cancellation requests received before July 3 2025, will be refunded, less a $25 processing charge. Unfortunately, no refunds can be made after this date. You may request to have your registration transferred to another person up to two weeks in advance of the conference. Go to our registration page and click “Find my Registrations” link to the right.
Please provide a photo ID upon arrival and your printed or digital ticket.
The Alpha Conference is an opportunity for pastors and leaders from across the country to come together to be inspired, encouraged, and equipped to continue to partner with God to reach the lost. We prayerfully expect the Holy Spirit to move in everyone who attends, helping you leave rejuvenated, refreshed, energized, and excited about the season ahead. We will share stories of how God is moving in churches through Alpha nationally and globally, and this is also a great time to connect with other churches running Alpha to learn from and encourage each other in new and different ways. In addition to the speakers on the main stage there will be several workshops to help equip your team for ministry.
