We are in week one of our series on Matthew. Our Student Ministries Director, Jason Walters, brings a message from Matthew chapter 7. At the end of the Sermon on the Mount Jesus gives us a decision to make between the wide gate and the narrow gate.

The bottom line for this week is "Surrender your life to a King who wants to save you."

For the 2025-26 school year we made it our goal to go through the ENTIRE NEW TESTAMENT as a student ministry. This message is an introduction about why we need to New Testament and what the point is!

The bottom line for this message is "We are saved by Jesus and sent on mission"

In this series we are talking about sharing our faith. This message, from our Student Director Jason, is about being disciples who make disciples!

In the final session of retreat we talk about Paul's identity in Jesus. God has called us to find our identity in Him and how we are not called to be like everyone else!

Unfortunately we don't have the audio for session 1 but we wanted to get the other sessions to you.

In part 1 we looked at Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus and the bottom line was that God wants your surrender not your perfection.

Here in part 2 we look at how we have an impact on the lives of people through our faithfulness in following Jesus.

On Saturday morning we had a virtual session. In this session we talked about having proper perspective and placing our perspective on Jesus.

As we wrap up this series we interview Rick Walters, a follower of Jesus for almost 50 years, about how to love God's word and have a lifelong faith.

In part 5 we discuss where to go from here and how to use what we've learned! The bottom line for this week is "In a world searching for their identity, find your identity in God and His word."
