IGNITE TRAINING CONFERENCE - BRISBANE

Join us for five days of life changing bible teaching


Ignite Training Conference (ITC) is an annual Bible-teaching and training conference in Brisbane, open to any Bible-believing Christian of any background, age, and ethnicity.

The conference is about igniting your head and heart with challenging, Jesus-centred Bible-teaching, singing, prayer, and fellowship, and training you to read and teach the Bible through the lens of the Gospel. ITC also gives you the opportunity to meet and grow with Christians from all over Brisbane for 5 days.

Our mission is to build the church in Brisbane by training disciples to make disciples. We belong to the family QCCA conferences and is modelled after KCC’s NextGen Conference.

Strand Groups

Strand groups are the training centre of ITC. Our strand sessions run for two hours each morning. ITC is designed so that, ideally, delegates return for at least 3 years to complete each strand in succession.

Bible Talks & Workshops

Part of the ITC program is to hear clear Bible talks that model the disciplines of Exegesis, Biblical Theology, and Systematic Theology being taught in the strand groups.

What should I expect?

Morning Sessions

Immersive Bible Teaching & Reflections

Our 2026 conference will see Dave Walter teach from the book of 1 & 2 Kings on the topic "The Lord is My God."

We’ll explore how to listen, trust, and obey God even when faith feels hard — through the story of the prophet Elijah, a man who faced exhaustion, pressure, and doubt yet never gave up.

The morning sessions will also include singing together, various spots and interviews, and a time of guided personal and small group reflection.

Afternoon Workshops

These run for 90 minutes with the aim of further equipping delegates through practical ministry skills, ministries exposure, and applied and pastoral theology.

In my view, this conference is probably the most significant training event in Queensland. The training programme, matched with the great Bible teaching, lays a great foundation for gospel ministry.
