Josh Trimble shares how he came to Christ and he has grown and changed and learned along the way since.

Why is the next great thing never enough? Why am I always empty? What am I missing? Pastor JJ walks the students through this exact struggle with the parable of the prodigal son. Check it out to see why you might still feel empty.

Our testimonies are built by learning to trust God in all circumstances. Joel Fincher discusses the way that he grew to trust in God fully, and what that means for him now.

The students looked at the prayer of Jabez in 1 Chronicles 4:10 and challenged students with this thought:
Why do we trust Amazon more than we trust God?
We’ll click “buy now” without thinking twice… but when it comes to prayer, we hesitate, shrink back, and play it safe. Jabez didn’t do that. He asked boldly and God answered.

Students submitted their burning questions, and five volunteers stepped up to answer them. Check out the answers here.

The students walked through the final moments of Jesus on the cross and what they mean for us today.

1. The Cross Paid It (The Payment Was Finished)
When Jesus said “It is finished,” He wasn’t giving up, He was declaring victory.
The debt of sin was fully paid. Not partial. Not a payment plan. Paid in full.
2. The Grave Was a Process (The Process Felt Final)
Those 3 days felt like the end… but God was still working.
Just because God feels silent doesn’t mean He is absent.
3. The Resurrection Proved It (The Proof Was Revealed)
The empty tomb is our proof that Jesus has power over sin and death.
The cross paid it. The resurrection proves it.
Bottom Line:
Jesus finished the work… but we still have to respond.
Knowing about Him isn’t the same as surrendering to Him.

Pastor JJ discusses how community builds a believer, and how believers build their community.

In our constantly consuming world, we fill ourselves with food, entertainment, and distractions, leaving no room for God to move in our lives. Fasting is the intentional practice of emptying something out to make more space for God. Throughout Scripture, from Moses to Jesus to the early church, fasting was an expected spiritual discipline that builds dependence on God and releases spiritual power. When we fast, we shift focus from physical cravings to spiritual hunger, turning our cravings into conversations with God. The greatest benefit isn't getting prayer answers, but knowing God like never before and experiencing His presence in deeper ways.
