The Fire & Future worship conference exists to empower the body of Christ, worship leaders, creatives, writers, and poets to uncover the sound and song within them and carry it forward. It’s about the fire being in the room and ablaze in hearts… with vision for what’s ahead.

Join us at The CityGate in Southaven, MS with author, storyteller, songwriter, poet, and worship father, Ray Hughes. Ray has been traveling the world for over 50 years helping many to discover, develop and deploy their creative inheritance through worship, art and faith. Fire & Future will also feature Zac Hagerty of the Altar Music, Abel Carriço of Mountain People Worship, and Hope VanDouser — from Journey Church in West Tennessee (Millington).

Fire within us is great, but if it’s not stewarded, we become a flash in the pan. We must have the future in mind. The fire is our desire and zeal, the future is our wisdom and knowledge. The Lord is marrying zeal and knowledge, passion and discipline, spirit and truth, revelation and wisdom for a generational mindset in worshippers that can see ahead of the now and into the future.
