We will provide a full refund for conference cancellations up to 91 days prior to the event. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide refunds for Live Event registrations within 90 days of the event due to operational costs and event location and speaker contracts. Your spot also locks out another pastor from attending. However, your ticket may be transferred to another staff member without penalty.

In the event that the conference must be canceled for circumstances beyond our control (e.g. natural disaster, fire, terrorism, war, infectious disease, government travel restrictions, etc.) registrations are non-refundable. Much like when traveling on vacation or overseas, we recommend consideration of travel insurance to safeguard against loss.

The Renegade Pastors Network with Nelson Searcy provides a 100% Money Back Guarantee — if you aren’t completely satisfied with the impact of this conference after attending and engaging on Day 1, just let Nelson know anytime before the end of Day 1 and you’ll be completely refunded.
