re:create has three goals:

1. refreshment
2. encouragement
3. diffusion of ideas

re:create began as a dream by Randy Elrod in 1998. As Pastor of Arts/Worship in a South Florida mega-church of over 6,000 members, he longed for a conference where like-minded creatives could gather for a time of refreshment, encouragement and diffusion of ideas. After a great start as Beyond 2K in 1999, the gathering was renamed, re:create Conference and moved to Franklin, TN and continues there since February, 2001.

Total conference attendance will not exceed 150 registrants. The entire group worships together and enjoys meals together. The three cohorts of 50 gather separately but enjoy identical speakers, with discussions tailored with each specific church size in mind.

All 150 of us will worship together each morning with lead worshippers and others. We also have dinners together, so that we can all get to know one another. The other meals continue to feature our gourmet dining sponsored by the music companies with our respective groups. Another of the hallmarks of re:create has been our dining together and sharing ideas.
