Pastor CT Townsend singing in the middle of the crowd at Arise, hands raised all around him2011

What started in 2011 as a few youth rallies and camps has grown into something we could have never imagined! In 2017, we launched the very first Arise Youth Conference with one simple burden: to reach the next generation with the Gospel and challenge young people to give their lives completely to Jesus Christ. Since then, we’ve watched God bring thousands of students, youth pastors, and leaders together from across the country for an unforgettable week in the Smoky Mountains.

We want them to have an encounter with God that changes the rest of their lives.

Now, don’t get me wrong, we believe church ought to be exciting! From incredible worship and powerful preaching to crazy competitions, unforgettable activities, and a whole lot of fun, there’s never a dull moment at Arise. But behind all the excitement is something so much bigger. We don’t just want students to have the best week of their summer. We want them to have an encounter with God that changes the rest of their lives. There’s nothing like watching a young person get saved, surrender to preach, answer the call to missions, or simply decide that they’re going to live completely sold out for Jesus.

Teenagers singing with hands raised under the Arise 2026 banner

Our heart is that what happens at Arise doesn’t stay at Arise. We want to see students go home and make a difference in their schools, their churches, their families, and their communities. We want youth pastors encouraged, churches strengthened, and a generation raised up that isn’t ashamed of the Gospel. Because Arise isn’t just a conference we put on. It’s a generation we’re believing God to raise up!

— Pastor CT

Worship is led by our teen choir — we feature the choir rather than outside artists. Two Arise Albums are also available in all music stores.
