Dear Church Leader,

My grandpa was a pastor for two decades before he and my dad started RightNow Media in 1977.

I have served as an elder at my church for two decades.

I love the local church and so does our team at RightNow Media. In a time when our culture is isolated, we champion the local church because it is a beautiful community of unique people who are together for one reason—Jesus.

Jesus is also the reason you’re here today. Our team loves hosting this conference because we love caring for pastors and church leaders. You matter.

In the year ahead, we are launching some exciting new initiatives to serve you that you will hear more about during our conference.

We are committed to helping you as you make disciples in your church and beyond.

Thank you for leading faithfully,

Brian Mosley
President, RightNow Media
