Iron and Embers was born from the heart of Wave Church, bringing together churches from across the U.S. and around the world. It’s a time of powerful worship and hearing from dynamic speakers who inspire and challenge us all.
The mission of Iron and Embers is to equip pastors and ministry leaders with practical insights, build meaningful connections, and unite like-minded believers—all to further God’s kingdom in their local communities.
Everyone has a role, and Wave Conference is here to help you discover yours. Don’t miss this opportunity to grow, learn, and be inspired!
