What is…The Sticks???

A question I get a lot. Because I lead the Network, when someone hears or reads about it, the big Q comes. So…What is “The Sticks?”

It’s a Network of gatherings to empower small city pastors and leaders to love, learn, and…

Lead BIG

The Sticks provides the resources for church planters, church pastors, and leaders to network together and learn principles that will help them make a BIG impact in their smaller city.

The Sticks is an Exponential Initiative. That means we partner with the Exponential Conference every year to do a pre-conference and conference breakouts.

The Sticks has several different types of gatherings throughout the year…

National

Each year, we have a national conference in Orangeburg SC (usually in October). This conference brings in smaller city leaders from around the country to learn and be inspired to do BIG things in smaller areas.

Regional

Meetings – These meetings are held in different areas around the country. Churches are encouraged to host a one day Regional Gathering to bring in leaders from the surrounding areas for hands on leadership learning and networking.

Local

State Gatherings – These gatherings are meant to allow smaller city pastors and leaders to network. We know that having a large vision in a smaller area can be an empty and lonely feeling. These gathering help bring leaders that think alike together to network and find community.

Still Looking!

We are still looking for state and regional meeting places, hosts and Leaders. If you would like to help get a local or regional gathering going near you…Let us know!
