A gathering for leaders, believers, worshippers, intercessors, and kingdom builders who are ready to embrace the crushing, consecration, and courage required to carry the anointing for kingdom impact.

The Cost of the Oil

A call to costly worship, holy surrender, and devotion that fills the house with fragrance.

Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.

John 12:3 NKJV

When costly oil is poured out at the feet of Jesus, the whole house is filled with the fragrance.

Conference Overview

The Cost of the Oil is a gathering for those who know that the anointing is not cheap, casual, or convenient. Oil is produced through crushing, consecration, surrender, obedience, and fire. This conference is designed to call leaders, believers, worshippers, intercessors, and kingdom builders into a deeper place of intimacy with God, spiritual authority, and global assignment.

Throughout Scripture, oil represents consecration, healing, authority, worship, and the presence of the Holy Spirit. But before oil is poured, something must first be pressed. This conference will awaken a generation to understand that what God pours through us is directly connected to what He has formed within us.

The Cost of the Oil will be a time of worship, impartation, preaching, prayer, prophetic ministry, and activation. It is for those who are ready to move beyond surface-level Christianity and step into a life fully yielded to the purposes of God.

This is not just a conference. It is a call to the altar. It is a summons to carry the oil with purity, power, and purpose.

Workshop Experience

A separate two-day leadership intensive designed for ministry leaders, marketplace leaders, worship leaders, intercessors, and emerging leaders.

The Cost of the Oil Ministry Leaders Workshop is a focused leadership intensive designed to equip pastors, ministry leaders, marketplace leaders, worship leaders, intercessors, and emerging leaders to carry the weight of their assignment with wisdom, purity, and endurance.

Leadership in this hour requires more than talent, strategy, or visibility. It requires consecration, character, spiritual discernment, financial wisdom, cultural courage, and the ability to lead under pressure without losing the presence of God.

This workshop will address the real cost of leadership: the hidden crushing, the private altar, the stewardship of influence, the warfare of assignment, the pressure of culture, and the responsibility to build beyond traditional boxes without compromising biblical foundations.

Leaders will be challenged and equipped to steward their oil well—in their homes, churches, businesses, teams, finances, and global assignments.
