Make the Sound. Restore the Altar.
welcome the king.
Ram’s Horn Ministries is a Christian Conference & Resource for Spiritual Growth in Columbus, OH
YOUR INVITATION
We believe God is sounding a call, a return to – and restoration of – the altar. Not only the altar in a church building, but the altar of the heart – where surrender becomes real, prayer becomes steady, and worship becomes a living response. Join us as we pursue a fresh awareness of God’s presence, a holy hunger, and the courage to build what the Holy Spirit is leading us to build in 2026 and beyond.
THE SOUND
In Scripture, the sound of the shofar (an instrument made from a ram’s horn) marked sacred moments. It was used to issue warning, declare victory, or call God’s people to respond.
Most of all, it announced the arrival of the King.
That call still matters today, because God doesn’t simply visit. He dwells within. Our mission is to restore understanding of the need for His presence in our lives, and to help believers become instruments in the hands of the King.
THE Conference
This gathering is more than an event on the calendar. It’s a call to rebuild the altar of the heart and respond to the sound of Heaven together.
We’ve invited some special guests to help us do just that. You’ll experience anointed praise and worship, inspired teaching, and engaging conversations around spiritual growth.
Below, you’ll find everything you need to plan your time at the Ram’s Horn Ministries conference, from schedule and sessions to practical details that help you come ready, present, and expectant.
