About LifeWay
Conference Center
Ridgecrest: Rest,
Focus, Explore, Discover, Renew...
Nestled in the Blue
Ridge Mountains, just minutes from
Asheville, North Carolina, rests
the tranquil LifeWay Ridgecrest
Conference Center. Natural stone
buildings and thick mountain laurel
create a restful charm throughout
the campus. The sunrises are spectacular,
with ambient colors reflecting off
the mountain mist.
Ridgecrest, NC
Ridgecrest’s
beautiful 1,300 acre campus climbs
from valley to mountaintop, offering
elegant comfort in guest lodging
and meeting space for over 2,000
people. Since its founding almost
one-hundred years ago, Ridgecrest,
a Christ-centered ministry, has
welcomed millions of guests. Its
spacious facilities are the choice
location for conferences and events
from 10 to 2,000.
Ridgecrest’s
campus offers an abundance of recreational
opportunities including tennis,
volleyball, basketball, and miniature
golf. Some of the most beautiful
hiking trails wind through the mountainside
campus offering spectacular views
of the Carolina horizon. Fine dining
and shopping can be found just minutes
down the road in nearby Asheville,
or conference attendees can stroll
through the delightful arts and
crafts community of neighboring
Black Mountain.
LifeWay
Ridgecrest Conference Center
is truly unique. There are no olympic-sized
swimming pools on campus. There
are no television sets inside the
hotel rooms. Ridgecrest is cool
afternoon walks on winding trails
with family or friends. Conference
participants resting under a shady
porch sharing ideas from that morning’s
session or ministry staffs building
a greater sense of teamwork during
adventure recreation.
Ridgecrest is where
people come to look into the mountains
– and listen to God. Lives
suddenly change. Priorities become
realigned. And organizational goals
give way to God’s perfect
will.
