TRANSFORM IDEAS

Transform Ideas is a “TED talk style” forum featuring local speakers and experts sharing faith-filled responses to critical issues in our culture. These short, impactful talks and panels are curated to challenge Christians to serve the common good.

Transform Ideas evening forums have been hosted across the Twin Cities, Rochester, and St. Cloud.

“All of you at a Transform do such an excellent job. You are always a step ahead of what our community needs and provide Biblical vision and unity to live out the Bible in our communities’ most pressing needs. Thank you!”
“I appreciated the bringing together of the community by having local speakers and encouraging unity amongst the denominations.”
“I appreciated that each presenter, who was a professional in their field, was also open and willing to share about their personal story.”
