Breakout Sessions
A Pathway to Rich Friendship
Melody Richeson
Did you know that over 50% of adults in the US report feeling isolated, lonely, and lacking meaningful emotional support? In other words, many of us are lacking deep connection with friends. This workshop will explore what the Bible has to say about friendship, offer some practical ways we all can grow in cultivating a great circle of friends, and teach you some skills in relational repair when you find yourself in conflict with a friend.
More Than A Career
Ryan Nutter
Following Jesus isn't something we set aside when we begin our careers—it's one of the primary places God calls us to live on mission. This session explores work as a gift from God, how stewardship transforms the way we think about our careers, and how our influence, excellence, and relationships can point others to Christ. Whether you're headed into business, education, healthcare, ministry, or anywhere else, we need a bigger vision for how your work fits into God's kingdom.
Living with Joy
Ashley Chesnut
What is something God enjoys about you? Your experience of joy directly relates to how easy or hard it is to answer that question. Joy is God’s will for us—as well as a command, and Jesus spoke to His followers about fully experiencing His joy. But when we struggle with mental health, sin, suffering, or broken relationships, how can we experience Jesus’ joy in daily life? In this session, we’ll look at what joy is and how to cultivate it, and we will do a joy-building practice together.

Sola Scriptura
Aaron Lewis

7 Pillars of Sexual Wholeness
(Men Only)
Brooke Beyer
What does it look like to walk in sexual wholeness? You may feel hopeless in your struggle with sexual brokenness and that sexual wholeness is unattainable. However, Jesus tells us that "with God all things are possible.” Come join us as we discuss God’s intent for sex and his path to sexual wholeness.
Finding Your Identity Beyond Sexual Brokenness
(Women Only)
Maddy Crawford
Whether your story includes pornography, masturbation, past sexual sin, sexual abuse, unhealthy relationships, or simply a desire to pursue biblical purity, this session is for you. We’ll honestly examine what Scripture teaches about God’s design for sexuality while exploring the hope, healing, forgiveness, and freedom offered through Jesus Christ. Together we’ll talk about overcoming temptation, processing shame, embracing our identity in Christ, and taking practical steps toward lasting holiness and freedom. No matter your story, you’ll be reminded that your deepest identity is not found in what you’ve done (or what’s been done to you) but in the redeeming love of Christ.
Swept Up Into God's Story
Trace Kendrick
Since the Garden of Eden, God has been writing a redemptive story in and through the history of mankind. When we decide to follow Jesus, we offer our lives to be swept up and used for this grand, redemptive mission. In this breakout, we’ll briefly trace the mission of God across the pages of Scripture and talk about how that mission can give meaning, purpose, and excitement to everyday life.
