"Our Created Value" Once you have realized the price that He has paid for you, everything changes. Whatever is tormenting us and ruling our life - whether it be drugs, insecurities or anger, ends the day we meet Him and see our value to the Father.
"The Transformation from Darkness to Light - from Prison to Freedom!" After 22 years of drug addiction, atheism, anger and a life full-blown in sin, in a radical encounter with the Jesus who forgave me, the Lord showed me what it means to walk in the light as He is in the light. Without this there could be no fellowship with Him as our Heavenly Father, or between each other as the body of Christ.
"What Is God Looking For?" Our attitude is something we choose no matter what our background, circumstances or age. Is there a specific attitude that we can have to attract Gods attention?
"The Prophetic Call to Let Justice Roll" Amos 5 - The biblical narrative calls for a response to the work of God. Starting with our Genesis call to steward, grow, and mature all the way throughout Scripture we hear the cry for people of all ages to respond to the work of God, revealed through Cross, by doing what’s right.
"The Journey of Forgiveness" No matter what age you are or what your history entails, at some point forgiveness or unforgiveness will play a major role in your spiritual life. Come gather some tools to help in The Journey of Forgiveness.
"For Such A Time As This" It’s easy to get discouraged by your circumstances and the news all around us. You may even wish you lived in a different time, but God has you here and now to fulfill His purposes. This is where you were meant to be and the time of His choosing.

MAIN ARENA
"Get Your Head In The Game" God never wasted a prepared man or woman. Are you prepared and are you functioning as the best you? Christ didn't sacrifice His life for us to be average - we need to discover and develop our God given talents and abilities.
"Unity: The Struggle Is Real" As the Church, how can we spread the gospel when we seem so divided? We need to pursue Christ and encourage those next to us in the same race.
"Time To Buy Some Land" Too often we settle for small living, giving in to mediocrity and forfeiting the adventure God has in store for us. But it doesn’t have to be that way. God has given us everything we need to live a life of deep faithfulness. The question simply becomes whether we’ll be courageous enough to follow him into that life.
"Resurrecting Your Story" The resurrection is under attack. Every year less and less people believe in the power of the resurrection. Our story will have a dead end unless the power of the resurrection goes into our lives!
"Where Is Your Heart At?" This session is not for the faint hearted. If you are willing to be truly open, honest, and courageous then this session will catapult you into the next season you are going back into.
"Radical Racial Reconciliation" John 5 - How have you seen the church intentionally model the Kingdom of God? How can the local church embody the call of the timeless Church to be reconcilers, in a day and age when the world is continually dividing? Choosing the work of reconciliation, bridges the gaps and spans the divides that splinter us from the common cord of Christ which unifies our identity.
"Fighting Sex Trafficking - From the Stage to the Front Lines" David Zach, when not touring, spends time as an undercover investigator in red-light districts around the world with the abolitionist group The Exodus Road. While undercover, the team uses covert gear to capture evidence of trafficking in an effort to partner with local authorities on raids that result in rescues and arrests.
"Faith, Hope, & Love: Hope is our Fortress" Hope is our fortress. This fortress is strong and has been built on a solid foundation. We can run to it in times of trouble. Where is this hope? Where it has always been. Between faith and love.
"It's All About Today" Today, we take time to thank Him. Today, we take time to praise Him for all he has done. Today, we declare "His love endures forever!"
