Expanding Leadership Impact: Crucible + GLS 2025

The Global Leadership Summit (GLS) is the world’s premier leadership conference, featuring top speakers like Craig Groeschel, Jon Acuff, and John Maxwell. While the main event happens in Barrington, IL, on August 7-8, 2025, GLS will be streamed live to host sites across the globe—bringing world-class leadership insights to local communities just like yours.

Be a Catalyst for Change in Your Community

This year, The Crucible Project is once again partnering with GLS to introduce over 100,000 Christ-following leaders to the transformative power of soul work. In addition to our presence at the in-person event, we want every Crucible community near an event live-streaming site to have Crucible in-person representation. But we need YOU to help make this happen in your community.

Represent Crucible at Your Local GLS Host Site

A generous donor has made it possible for two Crucible representatives per live-streaming site to attend and represent our mission. This is a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded leaders, spread awareness about the Crucible Project, and invite others into deeper transformation.

If your community has a church hosting GLS, we want to see Crucible represented there. Click here to search site options near you. (In the "Attend a Local Summit" box, click "Register Today!" which will provide a map for you to search by city, state, or zip code.)

What is Provided for Crucible Representatives?

Crucible will provide site representatives with a "Booth in a Box" kit, stocked with the tools needed to equip you to spread the word about Crucible.

✅ Free attendance to the GLS event
✅ A branded Crucible polo shirt
✅ Push cards and an event-specific QR code
✅ A table placard for visibility
