How is ‘The Surge’ different from a Life Surge event?
Who is this event for?

Whether you’re just starting or already running a successful business, you’ll gain practical strategies, connections, and clarity to reach your next level.
Are refunds available if I can’t attend?
Tickets are non-refundable but fully transferable. If you’re unable to attend, you can transfer your ticket to another person or apply it toward a future Surge event.
What can I expect over the 3 days?
Three powerful days of transformation — world-class speakers, interactive sessions, investment workshops, networking mixers, worship experiences, and practical business strategy. You’ll leave with a proven blueprint to expand your income and influence while staying rooted in your purpose.
Can I come with my spouse or my team?
Absolutely. Many attendees bring their spouses, partners, and leadership teams to grow together. In fact, the most successful attendees are those who come with their inner circle so they can implement the vision together.
Where is the event being held?
The Surge takes place at the Tampa Bay Convention Center, located in the heart of downtown Tampa, Florida — right on the waterfront. Enjoy easy access to hotels, restaurants, and the scenic Tampa Riverwalk just steps away.
I’m already investing or running a business. Will this be valuable?
Yes — 100%. The Surge is built for people like you. You’ll learn advanced wealth-building, leadership, and business strategies directly from proven Christian entrepreneurs and investors who operate at the highest level. Even seasoned leaders walk away with new insights, partnerships, and renewed vision.
Why don’t I see discounted group rates anymore?
Our group‑discounted hotel blocks closed after their published deadlines. Any reservations made after this point are booked independently and subject to current market rates set by each hotel.
