Jesus in Our Generation by Ben Stuart

Every generation approaches the world a bit differently, impacting their view of God, self, and

neighbor. For young adults, major advances in technology and rapidly changing social and political

landscapes have left us scrambling to find—or even define—truth. How do we adapt to cultural

revolutions while remaining anchored to God’s unchanging word?

In this six-session series, author and pastor Ben Stuart will discuss the major areas in our lives that are

directly impacted by modern culture. Discover God’s timeless wisdom for this generation and truths

that will anchor us in Christ. Trailer..

A Meal with Jesus by Tim Chester

The meals of Jesus represent something bigger. They represent a new world, a new

kingdom, a new outlook.

Tim Chester brings to light God’s purposes in the seemingly ordinary act of sharing a meal―how this

everyday experience is really an opportunity for grace, community, and mission. Chester challenges contemporary understandings of hospitality as he urges us to evaluate why and who we invite to our table. Learn how you can foster grace and bless others through the rich fare being served in A Meal with Jesus.

The Shift: Courageously Moving from Season to Season by Keion Henderson

Continuing Part 2 of this series. Discover a renewed sense of your purpose and the courage to move from what it is to what can be.

We have a tendency to think of our present situation in polarizing terms: good and bad, up and down.

Due to the seasonal nature of our life experiences, that's an easy trap for many of us. We overlook the fact that there are seasons in between, such as the season between graduation and the amazing job; between divorce and remarriage; between the failure and the success. When God is shifting us to a new level or season, there will inevitably be moments of conflict, confusion, and crisis. The Shift explores the ways we can survive times of transition with a courage that only comes when you're sure of God's purpose for your life.

Life is not about what happens to you. It's about how you respond to what has happened to you.

meet life’s daily challenges.

The Well-Watered Woman

The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will

be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. –Isaiah 58:11 (NIV)

A well-watered life doesn’t happen overnight, and it starts with planting a small seed. It takes time for the seed to grow,

become deeply rooted, and to produce fruit.

Following Jesus is a lifetime journey! As we walk through this lifetime journey with Jesus, we will discuss the seasons of life and how to remain well-watered in our lives.

Well-Watered foundational themes:

1. Well watered: I am well watered because Jesus, the living water, satisfies my soul’s thirst forever.

2. Planted: I will focus on planting my identity in Christ.

3. Rooted: I am rooted in the gospel of Christ.

4. Prune, Grow, & Bloom: I will prune things I dont need in my life, growing in grace, and bloom in God's timing.

Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life with Donald S. Whitney Part 1

We aren’t meant to wait for holiness―we’re meant to pursue it. God commands Christians to actively “be holy,” but what does that look like in daily life? Rather than overwhelming legalism or loose boundaries, Don Whitney encourages us to find a practical middle ground through biblical habits.

Don Whitney’s convicting insight on spiritual disciplines will challenge you to

grow in new ways as a Christian. Now updated and revised, this edition offers practical suggestions for cultivating spiritual growth, diving into practices such as:

Absorbing Scripture • Prayer • Worship • Evangelism Serving • Fasting • Silence & solitude • Journaling And more



Regardless of where you are in your Christian walk, this anniversary edition provides refreshing and profound encouragement for your spirit.

Our Foundations Class: LifeBuilders

(8 WEEKS)

This is for all those who wish to explore or enrich their faith and for new beginners or those starting afresh!

Welcome to new class to renew, review, or just introduce the central concepts behind our faith. This group is designed for anyone who wishes to better understand why we believe what we believe by returning to the basics and foundation of the roots of our faith to confirm what it means to follow Christ in today’s challenging world.

It is an 8-part course that will guide you in your walk of faith and rediscover the very basics of the Christian faith. In a typical week, you will interact with a biblical text and be encouraged to begin journaling, praying and memorizing biblical passages. Then you can listen to a thirty-minute talk with study notes provided, work through the reflection questions and then have two more days to reflect over what you are learning.

While the course was originally designed for new believers, we have found that it functions well as a foundation class for all believers. Leaders in our ministry are present each week to help you with your questions to guide you in your walk with our Lord!

When we became a follower of Jesus, we started on the spiritual journey of our life. We went through the gate of conversion and started up the path of discipleship. As we travel the path, we will start to change, not because we must but because we want to. We won't always make the right decisions; we will stumble, but Jesus and your fellow travelers are there to help you get back on your feet. The further you travel, the more you will learn about God, how to listen to him and how to talk with him. You will learn more deeply who God is, who Jesus is and what he did, and who the Holy Spirit is and what he does for us. And you will learn about walking with other believers (the “church”) and inviting others to join you (“evangelism”). Because life is a journey, God does not expect you to get everything right the first time; we are all on a learning curve and God is patient with us. However, we were never intended to walk alone. We were saved into a new family, with new brothers and sisters, and a new Father. In this study you are encouraged to find an older traveler and invite them to walk with you.
