The Evangelical Press Association (EPA) annual convention is one of the most significant gatherings for Christian media professionals—and it’s coming up May 11–13, 2026, in Nashville, Tennessee. This event brings together editors, writers, designers, publishers, and digital content creators from across the field for inspiration, instruction, and connection in a way that few other events can match.

As the world’s largest professional organization for evangelical periodical publishing, EPA focuses on serving God through excellence in both print and digital media. The EPA Convention is designed to help you step away from daily responsibilities and engage deeply with new ideas, trends, and best practices in Christian publishing. Attendees enjoy powerful seminars, breakout workshops, presentations from respected industry leaders, and meaningful discussions that deepen both craft and calling.

At the convention’s heart are educational sessions covering writing, editing, design, photography, technology, social media, management, marketing, and more—all geared toward equipping you to take your ministry and publications to the next level. Beyond skills-building, the convention offers valuable opportunities to network with peers, form supportive relationships, and share insights with others who understand the unique challenges and joys of Christian publishing.

Whether you’re a seasoned veteran of the publishing world or just beginning your journey, the EPA Convention is a powerful place to learn from others, be encouraged in your calling, and return home renewed in vision and equipped for excellence. Registration is open now—don’t miss this chance to grow professionally and spiritually alongside fellow Christian communicators!
