Media Professionals to Gather in Nashville for Proclaim 16

Next month, thousands of Christian media and ministry professionals will make their way to Proclaim 16, the NRB International Christian Media Convention in Nashville, TN, to make strategic connections, to acquire new resources, and to discover the latest tips, trends, and insights in their respective field of work.

Every year, the Convention draws a wide range of participants, including radio and TV station owners and operators, pastors, church media professionals, radio and TV program producers, college educators, students, filmmakers, Web and mobile developers, social media managers, marketing representatives, and ministry staff members.

“Thousands of Christian communicators come to our annual Convention to find the connections, resources, and insights that will help them advance their organizations, their careers, and their mission,” said Dr. Jerry A. Johnson, President & CEO of the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB). “If you’re in the business of reaching people for Jesus Christ through media, you have got to be here!”

Then there are the eight specialized summits and tracks, where attendees will gain valuable insights for their work and ministry. The summits that will take place during Proclaim 16 include the Radio Summit, TV Summit, Church Media Summit, International Summit, Film & Entertainment Summit, and Donor Development Summit. The NRB Digital Media Summit, a pre-Convention event, will be held on February 22 and feature speakers from organizations such as Facebook, Hubspot, and YouVersion. There will also be a special Pastors Track.

In total, there will be more than 70 speakers at Proclaim 16, including pastors such as Rick Warren and H.B. Charles, Jr.; ministry leaders such as Anne Graham Lotz and Kay Arthur; web strategists such as Jeff Bethke and Jon Acuff; thought leaders such as Albert Mohler and Phil Cooke; and entertainment professionals such as the Kendrick brothers, Pat Boone, Phil Vischer, Ted Baehr, Kevin Sorbo, Jennifer Garner, and Roma Downey.
