THE RADIUS CONFERENCE 2025

Pre-Conference: October 16–17, 2025 (Breakout Sessions)
Main Conference: October 17–18, 2025 (Keynotes & Core Content)
Venue: RAK Evangelical Church
Location: Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates
The Radius Conference 2025 offers something new: a comprehensive Pre-Conference experience focused entirely on practical, in-depth breakout sessions, followed by the Main Conference centered on the compelling theme: “The God Who Saves.”
For thousands of years, God’s people have held to one essential truth: it is God who saves. While He uses His people and His Word, rightly taught, the power to save ultimately belongs to Him alone. This year’s conference will explore this foundational truth and its implications for global missions today.
