Fifteen years ago, Uproar Conference began in the most unlikely way: a prayer meeting with a handful of youth pastors. I had just taken over a youth group, and in that season the Lord spoke something that still defines Uproar today: “The largest demographic in the world is Christians, but they often have the quietest voice.”

Uproar was birthed to change that—to equip believers to carry the salvation, freedom, and power they’ve encountered into the world with boldness, clarity, and authority.

The Beginning (Year 1)
Our very first year, we booked our band and speakers with a projected cost of $20,000. At the same time, the Lord strongly challenged me to present the Gospel free of charge—no tickets, no barriers, no paywalls. I went to my pastor (my dad), we prayed, and we committed in faith.
Three months out, we had $0. Then God moved. One Friday morning, a father from the church asked to meet with us. After casual conversation, he stood up, handed me a check, and said, “Open it.” It was $10,000—half the conference cost. One week later, after a dinner meeting, a woman from the church said: "I knew God wanted me to give. I just hadn’t heard how much. When I heard what the other man gave, I knew I was to match it.” She handed us another $10,000. In one week, the conference was fully funded.

The Growth (Years 2–15)

  • Year 1 Attendance: ~300 people

  • Last 3 Years: Over 1,000 attendees annually

  • Total Funding God Has Provided: Nearly $1,000,000

  • Venue Growth: From 1 location to 3 with multiple other events!

  • Cost to Attend: 100% FREE (every year)

Uproar has now touched multiple states, including New York, Maine, and Indiana, with more cities continually being added—always with the same heartbeat: win souls, make disciples, and equip believers for lasting impact.

What We Believe (Our Theology)
God: We believe in one true and living God—holy, eternal, sovereign, and personal—who desires relationship with humanity and is actively involved in His creation.

Jesus: Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully God and fully man. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sins, rose bodily from the grave, and is the only way to salvation. Redemption, freedom, and new life are found in Him alone.

The Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is not a force but a Person—active, present, and essential today. He convicts, empowers, comforts, leads, fills believers, and equips the Church to live boldly and effectively.

Miracles: We believe miracles are not history—they are normal Christianity. Healing, deliverance, signs, wonders, and supernatural transformation are the natural overflow of a living God working through surrendered people.

A Move of God in a Service: We believe a true move of God is not manufactured or emotional hype—it is the manifest presence of God transforming hearts. Repentance, salvation, healing, freedom, holiness, and commissioning should all flow from encountering Him. Order and fire can—and should—coexist.

The Heart of Uproar -Uproar exists because the harvest is now.
This generation doesn’t need better entertainment—they need a real encounter with God. They need truth with power, grace with authority, and a faith that works outside church walls. Uproar doesn’t just challenge people to stand up—we equip them to do it.
The generation of world-changers is not coming. They’re here. And they are ready to carry a message that cannot be silenced.
