Stories Jesus Told
Stories captivate us – we love to read them, hear them, watch them, and tell them. Jesus knew this! Much of his teaching revolved around stories that revealed the secrets of his Kingdom and offered timeless truths to his listeners. Join us as we listen in on five stories from the greatest storyteller of all time and discover valuable lessons for our lives today.
The Seed, the Sower, and the Soil
June 30
Just as a successful harvest is dependent on fertile soil, spiritual growth is profoundly impacted by the condition of our heart. If the soil of your heart isn’t regularly cared for, spiritual fruit will be lacking. Join us as we reflect on the condition of our hearts and learn how to cultivate a greater receptivity to the things of God.
A Tale of Two Builders
July 7
Our lives are a continuous building project. Whether you are building a career, a family, financial stability, or a legacy, the foundation upon which we build can make or break us. Join us as we discover the principles of building a rock-solid life that stands the test of time.
Inside the World's Worst Prison
July 14
Prisons have long fascinated us – documentaries, tv shows, movies, and blogs explore their mysteries. But Jesus told a story about a prison that’s worse than any earthly jail, one that doesn’t merely lock up the body, but shackles the heart. Join us as we explore this prison and learn how to break free!
Ready or Not
July 21
Remember the game of hide-and-seek? Before starting, the seeker would always say, “Ready or not here I come!” It taught us to be prepared. In the same way, Jesus urges us to be prepared for his return. Join us as we unpack the certainty of Jesus’ second-coming and learn how we can be ready.
The Farm and the Fool
July 28
In a world focused on financial investments like real estate, stocks, and mutual funds, we can often overlook the best investment – eternity. Join us as we delve into the importance of spiritual investments with God and discover blessings that transcend anything this world has to offer.

Next Gen Weekend 2024
August 4
Jesus teaches in Mark 12:30 that we are to love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our mind, and with all our strength. These four elements make up the whole of who we are. Join us as we dive into what it looks like to have an undivided affection for God; an affection that includes our emotions, intelligence, and intensity. We will hear student testimonies to help illustrate what it means to love God completely.
