WILD GOD SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
Christ-Centered Teaching That Calls People to Surrender, Renewal, and Deeper Faith
WILD GOD speaking engagements invite audiences to encounter Jesus through Scripture, testimony, and vivid illustrations drawn from Creation and real-world survival experience.
Led by wilderness survival instructor, author, and television host Creek Stewart, these gatherings are designed to call people toward surrender, reignite faith, and remind them that God is not distant or tame, but present, powerful, and faithful.
This is not motivational speaking with Bible verses added.
This is Gospel-centered proclamation rooted in lived experience.

THE MESSAGE: WILD GOD
WILD GOD is Creek Stewart’s primary speaking message and testimony.
It is a bold, honest account of God’s faithfulness through failure, loss, surrender, and restoration. Through the lens of wilderness survival, Creek shares how God rescued him from the wilderness of his own life and reshaped his understanding of surrender, obedience, and purpose.
This message often includes a vivid, on-stage fire-starting demonstration that visually reinforces the call to surrender and the truth that faith—like fire—must be tended or it will fade.
The message concludes with a clear, respectful invitation:
For those who want to surrender their lives to Christ for the first time
For believers who desire renewed surrender and rekindled faith
