For the flourishing of the church and the faith of the next generation.
​
Equip is a discipleship conference for young adults (18-30). It aims to encourage, equip, and connect the next generation to God, one another, and their God-given purpose so that the whole church might be built up in love.
​​​2026 THEME
We are all following someone. Every day, there are endless calls for our attention–each one promising fulfillment, meaning, and belonging. Yet, we find ourselves aimless and empty. Anxious and afraid. Apathetic and Alone.
​
But what if you were made for more? What if you were made to flourish?
​
Flourishing begins when you begin to follow Jesus. In the midst of all the noise, all the chaos, Jesus makes a simple, life-altering invitation–follow me.
​
This April, join the Equip Conference, and discover where real life, real joy, and real flourishing are found. Come and see the majesty of Jesus. Come discover what it looks like to truly follow Jesus in your young adult years.
