G3 Ministries (or simply "G3") is a Reformed Baptist ministry organization in the United States. The ministry organization was formally formed in 2020 during the COVID-19 Pandemic, and is most widely known for hosting the G3 Conference (Gospel – Grace – Glory) that has been held since 2013.

History
The G3 Conference held its first conference in 2013 in Douglasville on the campus of Pray's Mill Baptist Church, where the Founder and current President Josh Buice has served as Pastor since 2010. The conference originally was held on an annual basis with several hundreds of attendees, but has since grown in conference attendance numbers to have several thousands of attendees. Since the formation of G3 Ministries in 2020, the conference is now held biennially (i.e. once every two years), in addition to occasional regional conferences (that cover a particular subject and are smaller audience).
The conference has grown to become one of the larger evangelical Christian conferences (and the largest Reformed Baptist conference) in the United States and globally. The conference has featured multiple notable figures in Christianity as conference speakers, including John MacArthur, Voddie Baucham, James White, Ken Ham, and Steven Lawson.
As of May 2025, following the resignation of Josh Buice as president, and in response to the rising concerns with "celebrity Christianity", G3 has begun shifting away from large conferences and will instead help local churches do conferences in their area (similar to existing regional conferences).
After initially announcing that it would keep Buice's content online, G3 reversed course the following day and removed them.[1] It also canceled its 2025 conference scheduled for September, since Buice had "had targeted several speakers on the lineup".[2]. Following the fallout of the Buice scandal, Dr. Scott Aniol announced a new vision and branding (designed by Joshua Barzon) for the organization going forward.[3] Shortly after Aniol's announcement, the ministry announced that Virgil Walker was leaving the organization and returning to local church ministry.[4].
As of July 2025, the organization announced a new "Pastor-Theologian" collective, which would be the face of G3 and creators of future teaching content going forward.[5]
Operations
G3 Ministries has operated a podcast and blog, and theG3 Press since its founding in 2020, and has released book publications on theological, doctrinal, and other Christian-related topics. G3 Ministries also operates a network of Reformed Baptist churches known as the G3 Church Network, which includes a number of churches who have left the Southern Baptist Convention following the exit of Pray's Mill Baptist Church, which is pastored by G3's Founder and former President Josh Buice.
