If you must bring children under 6th grade, please note that no one under the age of 12 is allowed to be housed in the dorm with Momentum students and youth leaders, and is unable to have admittance into the main level or balcony area of the main session.

2022 THEME: REWIRED
What causes us to sin? What moves us to holiness? What part of us initiates belief? What is inside of us that generates doubt?
There is only one thing – our hearts.
Only the Gospel is beautiful enough to REWIRE our heart and produce in it all the affections that will cause us to live new lives. Throughout the Bible, God is chiefly after our hearts. Enjoy Jesus, and he will change your heart.
A REWIRED heart affects the way we treat other people, where we find our identity, how we live our everyday lives, what our purpose ultimately is, and what we put our hope in for eternity.
Ezekiel 36:26, “And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.”
Our theme follows concepts in the Rewired, authored by Momentum 2022 Speaker, David Bowden.
Get ready for Momentum Youth Conference with the Rewire Your Heart devotional on YouVersion’s Bible App.
Why Momentum Starts Here
Momentum is a well-rounded experience that we believe God will use to change your students’ lives in powerful ways!
Momentum offers sessions, in-depth breakout tracks, afternoon fun options, and hands-on ministry opportunities.
Students meet peers from other churches and they grow tremendously in their relationships within their own youth group.
Momentum sets the stage for your youth group going into the school year. It’s not just a “mountain top experience,” it’s a launching point designed to help your group build momentum for the rest of your year.
Values Of
Momentum Youth Conference
An Emphasis on Scripture
At Momentum we always want to be pointing our students back to the Bible as absolute truth. It is in the Word that they will lay a foundation for a vibrant relationship with Christ and a knowledge of His character. We host speakers who teach from Scripture, base our theme on specific passages, and build the framework of our sessions on this emphasis.
Hands-On Ministry
When students serve together at Momentum with their local youth group it helps them see that ministry can be done in their own communities when they return home.
Partnering with the Local Church
We believe in the local church and youth group and its impact in the lives of students in ongoing relationships while at Momentum and at home.
Each night includes a “youth group time” when leaders debrief with their students about what they experienced that day in sessions, power tracks, ministry, etc. Youth pastors tell us this is one of their favorite times at Momentum – processing all that God is doing with their students.
Groups are housed together per gender in dorms which creates a great atmosphere for groups to bond. Housing and meals are on the same campus as afternoon events, sessions, seminars, etc. which allows youth workers to spend more time with their students and less time with logistics of meals and transporting their groups.
Creating a Fun Experience
You’ll always be able to find something to do and fun interaction between students at Momentum!
