Current and Upcoming Events

Men’s Stepping Up (August 9 – October 11, 2025)
Today, more than ever, the world needs godly men. Men who will step up and courageously lead at home, at church, at work, and in their communities. That’s the message of "Stepping Up." In a world where too many men are shrinking back, "Stepping Up" gives men vision and tools to live godly, courageous lives.
Men today are in a battle. It's a battle without bullets or bombs, but a battle all the same. It's a fight for our families and our future. Facing the battles of life demands courage and courage is the ability to do the hard thing in every circumstance, despite the cost.
In "Stepping Up," we call men to courageous manhood, offering a powerful vision for what it means to be a man today who truly conquers and wins in life. We define courage throughout the five stages of manhood and we commission men to honestly evaluate where they stand. Then, we prepare men to bravely master their life's purpose by developing a strategic plan and establishing a winning vision.
Register today and order your workbook if you are willing to take the challenge of Stepping Up!

How To Understand God's Word
September 2 – November 4, 2025
Just as a navigator needs to learn how to interpret all the contours and symbols of a map, so also we need to be able to understand how the Bible communicates its directions to us. In this class, you will learn a 4-step framework for interpretation. It starts with general principles of interpretation, then moves on to apply those principles to specific genres and contexts.
The How To Study God's Word class, will be using the Journey Into God’s Word book which helps Bible readers acquire these skills and become better at reading, interpreting, and applying the Bible to life. Using hands-on exercises, students will be guided through the interpretation process, with an emphasis on real-life application.
Life is a journey, and like any journey, it requires an accurate, reliable roadmap to get us where we need to go. God has provided such a guide in his Word. Let's dig in.
After registration, you will be emailed the link to order the accompanying student book for the class.
