Life Fest is an annual gathering of Christian ministers for the purpose of ministering to those who minister. Those who serve in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ need a time of refreshing. For us, Life Fest is that time! It is a time of refreshing, renewal and encouragement, but it is not just another church conference or meeting. Instead, we focus on spending time interacting with each other in small groups, ministering to one other, gleaning from the knowledge and experience of others, and sharing our own expertise. We focus on helping ministers identify their mission in their current season, and help equip them to meet their purpose. Each one in attendance brings something to the table, and we encourage everyone to share their giftings with others.

We come from various US states, a plethora of nations, various perspectives, races and generations, and both (there are only 2) genders. There is one God and one church, so we do not come together to promote ourselves, or to promote a denomination or sect, but we acknowledge our love for, and our responsibility to, God’s new creation in every city and region.

Everyone attending Life Fest pays their own travel expenses, and there are no honorariums. We ALL invest ourselves in this common venture with a hunger to know how to proceed in our pursuit of oneness; which is the true expression of the Ecclesia (from the Greek word, “Ekklesia”) in every place.

God has appointed in the church first Apostles, second Prophets, third Teachers; along with Evangelists and Pastors (see Ephesians 4:11~13). During Life Fest, we are blessed to have each of these Offices represented, and we encourage each minister to operate fully in their 5-fold gifting. We are also fortunate to have those with expertise in Christian education, music ministry, media, finance and investment, children’s ministry – and so much more – in attendance.
