DALLAS, TEXAS – February 5th, 2025 – In 2022, Bible teacher, New York Times bestselling author, and visionary Jennie Allen wrestled with a question that would transform her vision for the future of the global Church: "What if Jesus came back in 10 years?" With 5.5 billion people on earth still unaware of the Gospel, Allen’s urgency to reach the lost grew. This vision evolved into Gather25, a historic movement designed to bring together Christians from every nation, denomination, and generation for one purpose—sharing the Gospel with the world. The mission is clear: mobilize 2.5 billion Christians to bring hope and salvation to every corner of the globe before the return of Christ.

“For the first time in history, the entire global Church is actually able to gather. So we are inviting all 2.5 billion people who love Jesus to come together to pray, to see stories of the church, and to commission them to become missionaries wherever they are to reach the ends of the earth.”

Jennie Allen, Founder and Visionary of IF: Gathering & Gather25

In 2023, Jennie Allen assembled a team of passionate leaders and visionaries to pray and dream about what it would look like for the global Church to come together on a unified mission. The result of this prayerful collaboration was Gather25, a movement born not just from Jennie’s vision, but from the hearts of many Jesus followers around the world. Leaders from diverse streams of the Church have confirmed that God is speaking to His people about the next 10 years of mission, making Gather25 a timely and necessary call to action. Some of these leaders include: 

Priscilla Shirer John Mark Comer Jennie Allen

Kari Jobe + Cody Carnes Lui Ponifasio Tim Godfrey
