TEMPTED

We’re diving into real conversations about temptation, the struggles we all face, and how to stand strong in Jesus when the pressure is on.

Doors open at 6:30 PM. Bring a friend and don’t miss the start of this powerful new series.

☀️ Then next week is SUMMER VIBES NIGHT! ☀️

Weather permitting, we'll be outside for an awesome night filled with games, popsicles, summer fun, and our Watermelon Eating Competition 🍉🏆. Bring your friends and get ready for one of the most fun nights of the summer.

Two weeks. Two unforgettable nights.

See you Wednesday! 🙌

We’re proud of John and the impact he has made in just 2 years at Awaken Students 💙

A gifted communicator and strong leader, he leads not only with his words but also through his actions. As he continues to grow in his faith and prepares to attend Lenoir-Rhyne University, we’re excited for all God has ahead for him 🙌

We celebrate Yanelis and her incredible journey with Awaken Students over the last 5 years 💙

From being one of the original students in our very first week to faithfully leading worship before we even had a band, her impact is unforgettable. Now stepping into Lenoir-Rhyne University with a calling into youth ministry, we know God is just getting started with her life 🙌

We celebrate and the way she has grown into a strong woman of God over the past 3 years 💙

A faithful leader in her small group, she is always encouraging others and pointing them back to truth. As she prepares to attend Lenoir-Rhyne University, we know she will continue leading with excellence and purpose 🙌

We’re so proud of and the growth we’ve seen in his life over the past 5 years 💙

From quiet beginnings to boldly stepping into leadership, he is now walking in his purpose and feeling called into ministry. Whether it’s serving in Sound & Media or sharing crazy van stories, Luke is faithful, consistent, and ready for what’s next 🙌

TWINS SHOWED UP. 🔥🔥

What a night at Awaken Students!

From a special message by Pastor Justin Sharpe to a surprise appearance from our boy Preston to an intense game of Hungry Hungry Hippos, the energy was high all night long.

We worshipped together, laughed together, and most importantly encountered God together.

Pastor Justin challenged us from the story of Esau and Jacob not to trade our future for what feels good in the moment. Don’t settle for a bowl of soup when God has something so much greater for your life.

The best part of the night? Multiple students made the decision to put the Lord first NOW, not later. Their faith isn’t waiting until adulthood. They’re choosing Jesus today.

We’re believing this is just the beginning of what God is doing in this generation. 🙌
