Testimonials

Q is a singularly important annual event both for its content, which is eclectic, unpredictable, and challenging, and for its form, which demands the highest levels of excellence from both speakers and participants. I wouldn't miss it.

Q was a fabulous opportunity to connect with courageous and innovative people who are truly shaping our culture and our world.

Heather Larson
Leadership Team, Willow Creek Community Church


As a lead pastor in a church that is trying to walk the delicate line between cultural relevance and biblical truth, the Q has provided the opportunity to hear from top level leaders who are both thinkers and practitioners. The fast moving pace of the event is perfect for those leaders like myself that would rather act than just sit.

"Q always serves as both a stretching and illuminating experience for me. So many variant perspectives are brought to the table. Even those in fields radically different than mine leave me in awe of what God is doing in the world. The speakers Q assembles are simply incredible. As a creative professional, I leave newly empowered and open to what God is doing and eager to be a part of it."

The Martin Agency


The Q experience was paradigm shifting in ways that felt so true, freeing, respectful and right. I don't believe I am overstating things when I say we are moving forward in life and ministry with greater passion, freedom, creativity and basically have had our world rocked as a result of Q.

Coming over from the UK was really worthwhile, this was an awesome time. The big concepts that stood out for me were to just keep using the story (telling & listening to), business can be a force for good, there is a work for us to do in redeeming culture but the people shaping culture rarely set out with that as an ambition. Brilliant time, thanks.

Q is truly an amazing event!

The presenters brought a unique, well-rounded, cultural perspective that is needed to engage culture and create a "genuine" Christian culture globally.

Q - Not just another conference. Q is the best "church conference" experience I have ever had - because it isn't a regular conference! No one talked about church growth strategies, formulas for success, or asked me how big our church is. It is so refreshing to be around a community of leaders who yearn for the church to be the holistic redemptive agent that Jesus dreamed it could be.

Chris Bell
Pastor, Northstar Church


The goal of “Q” is to be a gathering for leaders in the church to become exposed and informed about future-culture. Why does this matter? We have gained more conversions in the United States over the last two hundred years than any other faith, while steadily losing ground in terms of cultural influence. The idea behind “Q” is critical, and one I have long embraced. In order to transform culture – to make it, create it, forge it – we must become agents of transformation ourselves.

Everyone I met was exceptionally intelligent, kindhearted and creative. Thanks again for putting this conference together. It will remain in my mind the archetype for what a positive, well-designed conference should be.
