Rooted: Marriage & Family Conference
Rooted: Marriage & Family Conference — January 30–31, 2026
Healthy families don’t happen by accident. They grow from deep roots—faith, connection, honesty, and a willingness to keep learning together. Rooted is a two-day conference designed to support every kind of family God gathers: singles, engaged couples, married couples, single parents, blended families, and those walking through seasons of separation, divorce, or widowhood. Because in the family of God, every story has a place, and every person is invited to grow.
This year we’re joined by bestselling author and international speaker Jackie Bledsoe, creator of The 7 Rings of Marriage™, a framework that has helped more than 190,000 couples worldwide. Jackie is known for helping faith-driven leaders win in the places that count—faith, family, and purpose. You may have seen him through FamilyLife, YouVersion, Lifeway, ABC News, The 700 Club, or Moody Radio.
Across three keynote sessions, practical breakouts, and plenty of space to connect, you'll discover tools and encouragement for whatever season you’re in. We’ll explore how to strengthen your home life, cultivate meaningful rhythms with your family of origin, and build life-giving connection within your faith family—the community of believers who walk with you, pray with you, and help shape your story.
Whether you’re single, newly engaged, building a marriage, parenting young kids or teens, navigating blended-family dynamics, healing from past family patterns, or supporting adult children, Rooted will help you grow steadiness, wisdom, and hope—both in your home and in God’s family.
