Pastors' Intensive 2026: Practicing Preachers

Join us for two days of interactive expert teaching on preaching followed by a day of live preaching and feedback from trained preaching coaches.
Participants consistently report the following benefits to their preaching:
- increased Biblical depth
- tools that make sermon study faster and more effective
- a sermon crafting process that works
- more personal life change through preaching
- a true day off without any preaching preparation
- renewed passion for preaching.
We believe that if you invest the time and resources into our Practicing Preachers seminars, it will be one of the best decisions you will make for your ministry this year.

Dr. David Ward is a friend and familiar voice to Church Awakening pastors. This year, Dr. Ward has agreed to lead our Pastors’ Intensive through his Practicing Preachers seminar, celebrated as one of the most ministry-changing experiences a pastor can have.

For a value of over $300, register today for as little as $50.
