For three days, over 80,000 high school and college students will be descending on Atlanta, GA and Washington D.C. as part of the 2018 Passion Conference to give glory and honor to Jesus Christ.
Led by Louie and Shelley Giglio, Passion is more than a conference. Passion exists to see a generation leverage their lives for what matters most – to live in such a way that their journey on earth counts for what is most important in the end. For the team at Passion, that’s the fame of the One who rescues and restores, and the privilege to amplify His name in everything we do.
Passion is you and me saying goodbye to lesser things and saying yes to Jesus, the One whose name is above every name.
One final note, if you have not purchased Louie’s book Goliath Must Fall, click HERE and do so TODAY! It is a must-read.
