Promise Keepers Reveals Blockbuster Lineup of Speakers for 2020 Global Digital Experience

Promise Keepers has announced the expanded lineup for its 2020 Global Digital Experience, which will be simulcast and live-streamed to men across the country and around the world July 31 and Aug. 1. Promise Keepers is committed to reaching beyond any racial and denominational barriers to demonstrate the power of biblical unity, and the speakers were selected with this commitment strongly in mind.

This two-day event will feature everything that men have come to know and expect from a Promise Keepers event - an authentic, Christ-centered experience with amazing keynote speakers, worship artists, and special guests - all selected to offer a timely message of hope, unity, and transformation directly to the heart of men. The Promise Keepers Global Digital Experience is a conference designed from the ground up to empower men to be refreshed, inspired and reignited in their passion for God.

Founded in 1990 by former University of Colorado football coach Bill McCartney, Promise Keepers is calling men back to courageous and bold servant-leadership by sparking a movement that will mobilize millions of men to follow Christ into today's broken world as changemakers for their families, churches and communities.
