The church should be a HOSPITAL, not a fortress! This powerful story about a homeless man living on church steps for 7 YEARS will challenge how you see hospitality. Are we truly loving our neighbors?

What if 500 students became living sacrifices for Christ? đŸ”„ Imagine the impact when we stop hiding our faith and start being bold examples - praying in cafeterias, helping strangers at Walmart, making disciples everywhere we go. Are you ready to be THAT example?

Sometimes God speaks to us in our darkest moments, not as a distant voice from the clouds, but as a loving Father sitting right beside us. This powerful testimony shows how transformation begins when we stop blaming God and start taking accountability for our choices. 🙏

Encounter 2026 in the books!!!đŸ”„

What a weekend.
Lives changed.
Hearts transformed.
Moments we’ll never forget.

God moved in real ways—through worship, through the Word, through conversation and prayer.

Will, thank you for coming this weekend
and faithfully proclaiming God’s Word to all who were there. We are so thankful for you and how God continues to use you.
Huge thank you to the entire planning team for the time, effort, and heart you poured into making this weekend happen. None of this goes unnoticed.

We’re leaving different than we came.
And this is just the beginning.

Can’t wait to see you next year at Encounter 2027 April 23-25!!

Session 4 closed out the weekend the right way!đŸ”„

We were never meant to do this alone.
We were chained
 but God holds the key.
Freedom isn’t something we earn—
it’s something Jesus already paid for.

Evil loses when we respond with love.
Prayer isn’t a last resort—
it’s a conversation with our Father.

We don’t just want the highs.
We trust God in the lows too.

And then communion—
a reminder that when we were enemies,
Jesus still chose us.

His body.
His sacrifice.
For us.

We confess.
We surrender.
We give Him everything.

Because following Jesus starts here—
and it’s the greatest decision we’ll ever make.
