The AGAPE Conference — Organization Profile
The AGAPE Conference is a churches-of-Christ–connected gathering designed to help Christians grow in Christ-centered love, unity, and bridge-building relationships across lines that often divide churches and communities. Produced by United Voice Worship (UVW), the conference blends worship and teaching in a setting that aims to help attendees see one another more clearly as family in Christ and to practice faithful, relational discipleship in everyday life.
Hosted at Pleasant Valley Church of Christ in Little Rock, Arkansas, the AGAPE Conference draws participants from Arkansas and beyond for a weekend of keynote teaching, breakout sessions, and congregational singing. The program has become known for intentionally bringing together people of different backgrounds and generations in one space for shared worship and honest conversation—especially around unity, discipleship, and the practical challenges of living out the gospel with one another.
A key distinctive is the way the conference connects worship and formation. United Voice Worship is described as a bridge-building a cappella ministry composed of diverse worship pastors and praise leaders from multiple states, with a stated vision of “bridging life together.” In that spirit, AGAPE’s worship gatherings are not only musical moments, but also a lived expression of the conference’s emphasis on celebrating differences while calling one another family in Christ.
AGAPE is also built as an equipping environment, not only a “main stage” experience. Alongside keynote sessions, breakout classes address practical topics meant to serve churches and ministry teams. The conference’s public communications and coverage highlight a recurring emphasis on building unity in Christ across racial and generational divides, and encouraging Christian practices such as confession, repentance, listening, and relationship-building as part of faithful discipleship.
For those who cannot attend in person—or who want to keep learning afterward—the AGAPE Conference maintains an online “Conference Rewind” area with AGAPE recordings, including keynotes, breakouts, and singing. Individuals, small groups, and church leaders can use these recordings as ongoing teaching resources for discipleship, unity conversations, and worship planning. Supporters can also connect with and support the work of United Voice Worship, the ministry that produces the AGAPE Conference.
