This conference was born by God's direction and for God's glory so that all North Alabama students, both youth and college age can be reached. In the day we are living, we continue to hear the horrible stories of bad home life, lack of parenting, drug addiction, sexual misconduct, neglect, loneliness and depression and all other manner of evil. This conference was born so that all could hear someone say Jesus is Lord and “You’re Worth It”

The Bible tells us that God so loved the world that He gave him up as a sacrifice for our sins. The only reason He allowed Jesus to leave His righthand side was to rescue human beings. Think about that. Jesus was brutally beaten, his back shredded with a whip, his beard plucked out, hit in the face to where you could no longer recognize Him, spit on and mocked. Jesus endured all of this for what? He obviously thought people were worth Him laying down His life. The YWI conference is here to remind young people that God has proven their worth in His death for our redemption. The enemy comes to kill,steal and destroy but Jesus comes to give life and life more abundantly. To say” You’re worth it!” is not a feel good statement but a truth statement. Jesus has proven that with His very blood! Biblical truth will set all free who accept it and You’re Worth It conference is here to declare that truth over the lies of the devil.

How can you determine your worth? There are countless ways to try to convince yourself either way—balancing your accomplishments against your failures, examining your reflection to see if you’re satisfied with what you find, or even dismissing your own emotions. Our culture bombards us daily with messages from ads and social media that attempt to define worth for us. This overwhelming self-help narrative often misses the root of the issue: being created in the image of God grants us inherent value. The core of the gospel is that Christ died for sinners, and those sinners are worth it all. The "You're Worth It Conference" aims to share this message, emphasizing that no one is beyond the reach of Christ's love. He created you, and He loves you. We hope that by attending our event, you'll discover the depth of God's love for you and leave with a profound understanding of your ultimate worth in Jesus and His salvation. -Rush of Fools

In a world full of social media and endless scrolling, I’ve definitely had those moments where I’ve questioned my worth. It’s easy to compare yourself to everything and everyone online and start wondering, Am I really enough? Do I matter? I’ve fought those internal battles more times than I can count.
And every single time the world left me feeling empty or not good enough, God showed up and reminded me of the truth: You’re worth it. Not because of what I do or how I look, but because He created me on purpose and for a purpose.
And for me, “You’re Worth It” isn’t just a slogan or a catchy phrase—it’s a constant reminder that I am a child of God, deeply loved by the King. That’s the truth I hold on to, and it’s the truth I want others to know too.
