Oklahoma Baptists to Host Church Technology Conference

August 13, 2026 - 20:10

Oklahoma Baptists are set to host a new conference focused on helping churches use modern tools for ministry. The event aims to bridge the gap between faith and the digital world, offering practical help for congregations that want to grow their reach.

Organizers say the goal is simple: to show how technology can serve the Gospel. Many churches struggle with setting up sound systems, building websites, or managing online giving. This conference will address those challenges directly. It is designed for volunteers, pastors, and staff who handle tech but may not have formal training.

The sessions will cover a range of topics, from basic audio and video setup to using social media effectively. There will also be workshops on cybersecurity and data privacy, which are growing concerns for many church offices. Attendees can expect hands-on demonstrations and time for questions with experienced technicians.

The conference is meant to be approachable. The planners understand that most church tech teams are made up of everyday people who want to serve. They are not looking for perfection, just a willingness to learn. The hope is that by taking care of the technical side, ministry leaders can spend more time on personal connections and teaching.

Registration details and the full schedule are expected to be released in the coming weeks. The event is open to any church in the state, not just those affiliated with the Oklahoma Baptist convention. This is a chance for congregations to invest in their future and make sure their message is heard clearly in a digital age.
