What is Invasion? Invasion Youth & Young Adults' Conference began back in 1996 with the vision of Josh M. Barclay. It was stirred up inside of him to begin a conference that would draw young people in from all over the United States and beyond for the simple action of chasing after God with everything they had. Romans 1:16, the theme verse for Invasion, says, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth...," and that is the declaration we stand on. It is four days of intense worship, connect groups and sessions, crazy games and tournaments, and much more. It is an absolutely life-changing event for all who attend.
