Join us for Verity Conference 2026
Last year we took Verity Conference virtual. This year, we’re back—gathering in person for Verity Conference 2026. We’re heading somewhere new, and we’re bringing everything you love about Verity with us. This year’s focus is Foundations of Faith—going deep into what grounds and roots us in God’s Word. Jen Wilkin, Phylicia, and other amazing speakers will be teaching, and we’ll be learning together the way we love best: face-to-face, in community. November 6–7, 2026 in Traverse City, Michigan. Registration is open. We can’t wait to see you there.
What Makes Verity Special
One Clear Mission
Evangelism and discipleship are the heart of our teachings. Know what you believe and live it boldly.
Real Community
Connect with the Every Woman a Theologian community, and learn how to carry it forward in your every day.
Amazing Speakers
We’re a practical conference that you can walk away from feeling equipped and ready to love your neighbor.
Verity Conference is returning November 6–7, and we could not be more grateful for what the Lord continues to do through this community. Verity has always been about connecting right where you are planted—loving Christ deeply and letting sound theology shape your everyday life. This year, we will gather in person in Traverse City, Michigan, to explore Foundations of Faith and consider how historic Christian truth forms a courageous and compassionate faith. In order to care well for those attending and to be fully present, we will not be offering a simultaneous online stream during the conference in November. Our heart is to create space for thoughtful teaching, unhurried worship, and meaningful conversation together. If you’re able to join us November 6–7, we would love to see you there.
I attended Verity alone to see if it was something I could feel confident sharing with others. It did not disappoint. I left feeling more sure of what I believe, more equipped to dig into what I wasn’t sure about, more encouraged to share with others. The session on hospitality was my very favorite. It gave me the push I’d been needing to get back into opening my home to others. Verity was the push I needed to get back into doing what the Lord has called me to do.

Are nursing babies, kids, and teens welcome?
Yes, nursing babies are welcome! We have an area for nursing mothers in the building that can stream the conference if nursing mothers need to leave the auditorium for any reason.
Due to open discussions of issues like sexuality and pornography, we recommend attendees are ages 13 and up.
Is this a woman's conference?
Although the majority of attendees will be women, we would like to extend an invitation to men to join us. Our event features both male speakers and worship leaders, and we warmly welcome men. Husbands are particularly encouraged to attend.
Will Verity be offering a streaming option this year?
This year, Verity Conference will be an in-person gathering, and we will not be offering a simultaneous online stream during the event in November.
In previous years, we have worked hard to host both an in-person and online experience at the same time, and we are grateful for the way that allowed women from many places to participate together. As our team reflected on those seasons, however, we realized that doing both at once limited our ability to be fully present with those who gathered in the room. After prayerful consideration, we sensed it was time to simplify—to focus our attention on caring well for the women who are with us at the event.
We are not ruling out offering a virtual streaming option at a later date, but are currently focusing on the in-person conference.
