International Symposium Recap

2025 International Symposium

On March 4, The Master’s Academy International had the privilege of hosting our annual International Symposium in Santa Clarita, California.

For one day, the global church gathered—over 1,500 attendees from nearly 50 countries—to fellowship, encourage one another, and learn from missionaries, pastors, and professionals serving around the world.

This year’s Symposium centered on the theme of Biblical Missions: Principles, Priorities, and Practices, drawn from TMAI’s landmark textbook by the same title. 100 authors from around the world contributed to this resource. Many of these contributors led breakout sessions throughout the day—over 30 sessions—covering key topics such as church planting, cultural engagement, marketplace ministry, women in missions, and more.

In the keynote sessions, speakers Paul Washer, Conrad Mbewe, and Mark Tatlock each addressed the growing challenges, compromises, and theological drift within modern missions. United by their love for Christ and commitment to His Word, they called believers back to the principles of biblical missions rooted in biblical inerrancy and authority—and not in pragmatism or cultural trends.

If you missed the event, you’ll soon be able to watch the keynote addresses and a selection of breakout seminars when recordings are released here next month.

We are deeply grateful to our donors, partners, attendees, and volunteers—thank you for your prayers and support. We invite you to join us again next year for another meaningful time of fellowship, equipping, and global encouragement.
