Eastview Students: High School

// RESPONDING, NOT REACTING //

When conflict hits, our first instinct is often to react — to defend, to snap, to fight back. But what if there’s a better way? Guest speaker Jason Sniff unpacks what Scripture says about responding instead of reacting, and how we can prepare our hearts before conflict even starts. He’ll also share practical steps for when we’ve already messed up, or when the other person just won’t meet us halfway.

// Why Do We Fight? //

We all experience conflict—but what’s really going on beneath the surface? In the first message of our new series Are We Fighting, we explore why conflict happens, what’s stirring in our hearts when it does, and why we need to bring it to God before bringing it to others.

// WHEN VISION BECOMES REALITY //

In the final week of our "Becoming Our Vision" series, Zach talks about the importance of living out our vision and bringing hope and healing to those around us. What would it look like for you to do this in your everyday life?

// IN JESUS //

This week, Zach talks about what it looks like to bring hope and healing to those around us in Jesus. Jesus is our fuel, and as we spend time with Him and make Him our priority, we are then able to go out into the community and live for Him. Where in your life can you bring love, life, hope, and healing in Jesus?

Note: Week 3 is unavailable due to recording issues. We apologize for the inconvenience!

// LOVING + LIFE-GIVING PEOPLE //

In week 2 of our “Becoming our Vision” series, Zach unpacks the first part of our statement, “Loving, Life-Giving People.” In a culture where love is reduced to a feeling and life giving people are sometimes hard to come by, we want our students to love regardless of feelings and bring life to every place they go. This sermon invites our students to take inventory of their people and places and encourages them to love and bring life to all of them.

// OUR NEW CHURCH VISION //

This week kicks off our brand-new series, “Becoming Our Vision.” Pastor Zach unpacks the heart behind our new church vision: “We are a church of loving, life-giving people bringing hope + healing in Jesus.” Together, we’ll look at what this means for us as high school students and how we can live it out—sharing the hope of Jesus and being part of His healing work in our community.

// LOVE OTHERS //

In week two of our series, Love God, Love Others, Zach looks at the story of the Good Samaritan to show what it means to truly love our neighbor. This week, how can you step in and be a bringer?

// LOVE GOD //

In this quick two-week series on loving God and others, Zach unpacks what it means to love God and how we can live that out in our everyday lives.

In the final week of our Gospel Made Simple series, Pastor Zach brings Junior High and High School students together for a powerful conversation about worldviews. He unpacks several popular worldviews and contrasts them with the truth of the Christian Gospel, urging students to move beyond simply hearing the message — and to believe it for themselves.

This week’s message features a special combined service with our Junior High and High School students as we continue our series, The Gospel Made Simple. Junior High Pastor Matt McClane teaches from Exodus 34, where God reveals His character to Moses. Through this powerful passage, we’re reminded of who God truly is—compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, forgiving—but also just. Don’t miss this deep dive into the heart of God.
