The Roots

Word Explosion started in August 1979 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Lord put it on Pastors Billy Joe and Sharon’s heart to start a Bible school in the fall of 1979. With that vision came the idea to invite speakers to come and preach for several nights prior to the beginning of school. In essence, it was to kickoff for Victory Bible Institute.

Right Now

Since 1979, Word Explosion has grown with thousands in attendance to hear well-known men and women of God preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ with conviction, exploring revelations and new depths in Christ as well as exposing the believer to the power contained in the Word.
