Our 2026 Youth Conference will center on the theme “The Way: Believe It. Live It.” as we point students to the truth of Jesus’ words in John 14:6 that He is the way, the truth, and the life. The conference will challenge students not only to understand the gospel clearly but also to live it out boldly in their everyday lives. On Tuesday morning, Bro. Quinton Locke, who serves as the Music and Youth Minister at Willow Springs Missionary Baptist Church, will speak on “Believe It,” presenting a clear gospel message calling students to faith in Jesus Christ. On Wednesday morning, Bro. Travis Jones, who serves as the Senior Pastor at Highland Baptist Church, will speak on “Live It,” challenging students to walk in obedience, pursue discipleship, and live out their faith on mission. This conference is designed to help students see that following Jesus shapes both what we believe and how we live.
About Our Conference
Our Youth Conference launched in 1997 as an arm of the Missions Conference, recognizing that God is doing powerful work drawing young people to Him, and that there was a great interest from students in attending this conference. Over the last 25+ years, we have seen God work to save souls, call young men and women to ministry, and renew their walk with the Lord and service in their local church. We are already praying for God to move in a mighty way in this year’s conference as we meet this July.
Make the most of this summer and the time your students have away from school to make a spiritual investment in their lives! While most church camps are geared primarily toward evangelizing lost teens, you will find a different focus here. is It is our joy to host another Youth Conference – an opportunity for your students to grow deeper in their walk with the Lord, be challenged to new commitments, and build relationships among brothers and sisters in Christ with other students from churches of like faith and practice.
