Nancy Beach

We are also looking forward to introducing Nancy Beach to Hillsong Conference in 2010. As a vital and strategic part of Willow Creek, her focus is to serve other church arts leaders and their teams around the world, building a community of Christ-following artists seeking to serve God as they create transformational moments in church services. We know that she will be a blessing to everyone and especially those who are part of the Creative Worship stream.

Nancy Beach is a speaker, author, visionary leader, and champion for the power of the arts and artists in the local church. She served for more than 20 years as the programming director for Willow Creek Community Church in suburban Chicago, a congregation known around the world for creating culturally relevant, biblically based services that make full use of the arts.

A sought-after conference speaker, Nancy uses her teaching gifts to inspire, motivate, and cast vision, while skillfully relating themes of soul transformation with everyday people and experiences. Her latest book, An Hour on Sunday, expresses Nancy's core vision and values for effective arts ministries. Nancy and her husband, Warren, live in Barrington, Illinois, with their two teenage daughters and a cat named Elphaba.
