The Mennonite Business Conference

The 2025 Mennonite Business Conference will be held October 5th – 7th 2025 in San Diego, CA.

One of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make is believing they can figure it all out on their own. We have been conditioned to think we must be Lone Rangers, but Scripture reminds us:

“ Where no counsel is, the people fall: But in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.” – Proverbs 11:14

In today’s economy, the pressure is on you.
To grow your business.
To provide for your family.
To manage your time and energy while still taking care of your God-given responsibilities.

Now, more than ever, you need a tribe that challenges you to grow, lead, and walk in God’s purpose for your business and your life.

It’s easy to fall into a victim mentality.
When no one challenges your thinking, you dwell on mistakes, and your mind convinces you that it’s not your fault and there’s nothing you can do about it.

But when you are part of a tribe of businessmen who seek solutions, everything changes.
You begin to see opportunities instead of obstacles.
You learn to take ownership instead of making excuses.
That’s the difference between a tribe of victims and a tribe of leaders.

Which one are you part of?
Are you becoming a victim of your circumstances?
Or will you step into your God-given purpose?
This is a crucial time to find a tribe of leaders.
To be part of something bigger than yourself.

Join our tribe at the MENNONITE BUSINESS CONFERENCE.

Break the cycle of trying to figure it all out alone.
What tribe are you part of?
Are you part of a tribe who holds you accountable?
Are you part of a tribe who has a vision?
Are you part of a tribe who challenges each other?

Or are you a Lone Ranger?

“ Where there is no vision, the people perish” – Proverbs 29:18

What the Mennonite Business Conference (MBC) Is:

✅ A Wealth of Experience – Whatever challenges you’re facing, chances are someone at the conference has been through something similar. Learn from their successes and mistakes.

✅ A Place for Meaningful Connections – Build lifelong friendships with like-minded entrepreneurs who understand your journey.

✅ An Opportunity for Mentorship – We have brothers and sisters with experience in nearly every area of business. Often, those who need guidance don’t know what they’re missing, and those with wisdom hesitate to speak up for fear of seeming like a know-it-all. At MBC, these connections happen naturally in an atmosphere of mutual respect and shared growth.

✅ A Source of Fresh Ideas – You’ll be exposed to insights and strategies that you may never have thought of on your own—many of which you’ll still be using years down the road.

What the MBC Is Not:

🚫 A Forum for Church Doctrinal Debates – MBC welcomes all Church of God in Christ, Mennonite members, and we encourage open-minded listening. This is not a place to discuss or debate church guidelines and doctrine.

🚫 A Sales Pitch Opportunity – If you’re attending solely to market your product or service, you may leave disappointed. MBC is about relationships, learning, and growth—not sales.

🚫 An Exclusive Club for the Successful – The conference isn’t about networking for status or patting each other on the back. Most attendees come because they recognize that, no matter how long they’ve been in business, there is always room to grow. Interestingly, MBC tends to attract those with years of experience—perhaps because, like parenting, the longer you’re in business, the more you realize how much you still have to learn.

Testimonials

One of the most inspiring parts of MBC for me has been learning to know brethren who are faced with largely the same business concerns and challenges that I have experienced. And they’re not necessarily wealthy or born with a silver spoon in their mouths. And if they can have courage and can soldier on then maybe I can too!  – Ron

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5-star rating.

My wife and I went to MBC last year for the first time. We absolutely loved building relationships and connections within a Business and a Christian minded group. The wealth of perspective, knowledge, and experience that I have been able to tap into is incredible! I appreciated viewpoints from small timers to big timers and from the laid-back to the get-er-done type. There is something to learn for everyone. – Travis

I too for one can say MBC has been a good resource for bouncing questions off of …. So many times, I feel like a little child not knowing how to come in or go out …… I do not have a degree in business, human resources, sales and so on …. been a good resource guide.  – Jay

There are many other business conferences that you can and should go to for particular industry education, with very experienced speakers and focused knowledge of specialties. MBC is not that, this is a chance to take these same issues of Business vs. World, then discuss them with brethren of like-precious faith, helping to determine how we as People of God should respond to these same issues – it’s been a very valuable resource for me to fall back on. – Tim
