What's coming up

Do Not Disturb

March 11-25th, 2026
Do Not Disturb is a youth series all about identifying and silencing the distractions that pull us away from our relationship with Jesus. From constant noise and busy schedules to social pressure and unhealthy habits, this series challenges students to recognize what’s competing for their attention and learn how to refocus their lives on what matters most. Through honest conversations, biblical truth, and practical steps, Do Not Disturb invites students to create space for God, hear His voice clearly, and grow in a deeper, more intentional relationship with Jesus.

Faithful or Foolish?

April 8-29th , 2026
Faithful or Foolish is an April youth series that challenges students to examine the choices they make every day and where those choices are leading them. In a world full of noise, pressure, and shortcuts, students are constantly deciding whether they’ll build their lives on God’s truth or temporary distractions. Through biblical wisdom, real-life scenarios, and honest conversations, this series will help students recognize the difference between living faithfully for Jesus and making foolish decisions—and empower them to choose a faith that lasts.
