A One-Day Online Conference
Churches are meant to be families—where young and old learn, lead, and worship together. But in today’s fast-paced, age-divided world, intergenerational connection doesn’t happen by accident.
Generations Together is a one-day online conference designed to inspire and equip church leaders, volunteers, and ministry teams to build bridges across generations.
Hosted by Dr. Christina Embree of ReFocus Ministry, this interactive experience features:
- Dynamic Keynote Sessions with thought leaders in intergenerational discipleship
- Breakout Workshops led by practitioners who’ve seen transformation in real congregations
- Ministry Meetups where you’ll connect directly with speakers and other attendees in live chat spaces
- VIP Access to all session recordings, exclusive digital resources, and Q&A panel with leading voices



Why This Conference and Why Now?
It’s a fair question. Why another conference? And why now? This was the question posed by the ReFocus Board when I (Christina) brought the idea of a virtual, one-day conference to them. And I want to share with you what I shared with them:
Generations Together will address a growing and urgent need in the global church—accessible, practical equipping for those seeking to engage in intergenerational discipleship. While other conferences have done excellent work in this space, they only meet biennially and primarily in-person, making participation difficult for international travelers and those with limited budgets. Currently, there is no regular online gathering space that brings together the wide range of churches, ministries, researchers, and practitioners focused on this vital aspect of faith formation.
Generations Together offers a strategic opportunity for ReFocus to lead the way in meeting this need. Rooted in my doctoral research on age segregation and spiritual formation and in years of ministry and coaching through ReFocus, the conference will create space to highlight proven strategies, identify key barriers, and explore practical steps toward building true intergenerational connection in faith communities. Breakout sessions, panels, and keynotes will include both seasoned and emerging voices, and sponsorships will offer valuable visibility for ministries and partners aligned with our mission.
That’s why. Because I have had countless conversation with churches and ministers all over the world. And all of them, all of YOU, are ready to dig deeper, learn more, find friends, and connect generations. You are ready! And now we are ready to bring that to you. This conference is affordable, accessible, and achievable. It offers the opportunity for those who are working and researching the fundamentals of generational discipleship to share with you, right in your own home or church.
I hope that you are able to join us for this one-day, five-hour opportunity to learn, grow, and explore together. Together we will take the mission of connecting generations in meaningful relationships for lifelong discipleship forward as one.
Together, Christina
