Texas Taco Turnout | Fort Worth Gathering
August 14–15 | Fort Worth Stockyards
What if the Gospel is even better than you've imagined?
If you've ever wanted to know Jesus more deeply, understand the heart of the Father more clearly, and see the Scriptures through a Christ-centered lens, we'd love to invite you to join us.
Together we'll explore what it means that Jesus is the perfect revelation of God, the fullness of His grace, and the One in whom all our questions about the Father's heart find their answer.
We'll talk about God's unrelenting love, His purpose for humanity, the finished work of Christ, and the hope that flows from seeing everything through Him.
Whether you've walked with Christ for decades or you're simply hungry for a deeper understanding of the Good News, this conference is a place to ask questions, grow, and discover the beauty of the Gospel together.
Come expecting honest conversations, fresh perspective, and, most importantly, a greater vision of Jesus.
The Texas Taco Turnout is a two-day gathering created for those in the Rethinking God with Tacos community and other like-hearted Trinitarian believers who are longing for authentic connection, pastoral care, and real community.
Many people love God deeply yet struggle to find a true sense of belonging in traditional church spaces. This weekend is designed to create a relaxed, welcoming environment where meaningful conversations can happen, encouragement can be shared, and lasting friendships can form.
Hosted in the heart of the Fort Worth Stockyards at the 81 Club, this gathering will feel more like family than a formal conference. Expect a space centered on fellowship, wisdom, testimony, and genuine relationship. Whether you are coming from across Texas or traveling in from elsewhere, you are welcome here.
Speakers
We are honored to welcome:
• Don Keathley
• Bill Vanderbush
• Andrew Maue and myself, James Alderman, will be speaking.
Each main speaker will be sharing multiple times throughout the weekend, creating space for both teaching and relational connection.
Heart Behind the Weekend
The primary focus of this gathering is pastoral care and community for individuals who may feel spiritually disconnected or without a true church home. While the event is being hosted through the Reciprocal Aid Network for Crisis and Hazards nonprofit to help bring awareness and support, the heart of the weekend is people, connection, and encouragement.
Family Friendly
This is a family-friendly gathering and children are welcome to attend with their families. However, please note that childcare will not be provided during the event. Parents are encouraged to plan accordingly.
Make It a Fort Worth Weekend
Located in the historic Fort Worth Stockyards, families and attendees will be able to enjoy:
• Local restaurants and shops
