2026 CCEF National Conference
What does it mean to be human? Everywhere you look, people are wrestling with this question. Beneath so many social trends, cultural winds, and personal struggles are deeper questions about our identity and purpose. The noise is loud and confusion is rampant, and the message of our fragmented world is clear: Being human isn’t enough.
But what if being human—fully, honestly, joyfully human—isn’t a problem to outgrow but a gift to receive? Creation displays a triune God who beautifully designed our humanity to reflect his image. The incarnation shows us how he doesn’t despise our humanity but takes it on himself in Christ. And the resurrection shows us that he redeems and restores our humanity toward a glorious future.
Join us this October 16–18 in Virginia Beach, where we’ll explore together what it means to live according to God’s beautiful, wise design and how to help others embrace it, too. We’ll learn from the person and work of Christ, who doesn’t strip away our humanity but makes us fully human again.
Virtual Conference
Can’t join us in Virginia Beach? Join us for the virtual conference! You’ll get access to the general session livestream and all breakout session recordings throughout the weekend. We’re excited about a few features this year:
• Access to view video content on the app will be available through December 31, 2026, giving you more time to view sessions after the weekend.
• In addition, a download of all session audio is now included with every registration and will be provided to all attendees post-conference.
• Finally, virtual stage interviews with our speakers will take place after every general session, exclusive to all virtual attendees.
“Thank you CCEF for such a robust and nourishing conference! Our hearts are full, our minds are full, and we feel so held by our gracious and good Heavenly Father. Your endeavors are impacting lives by God’s grace.”
