In the journey of faith, a few mountaintop days can make a big difference.

That's why so many people come to our national conferences for both refreshment and deep connection.

At TGC 25, happening April 22nd through the 24th,

we'll celebrate the rich blessings of our union with Christ by studying Ephesians and what it means to be alive together.

Will you join us?

Speakers include John Piper, Nancy Guthrie, David Platt, Jen Wilkin, and many more,

Join us for three days of gospel-centered teaching, worship, learning, and connection.
