In our final episode of the school year, the Oasis staff looks back on some of the best moments from this past year. From powerful Sunday nights and unforgettable events to inside jokes and favorite snacks, we’re wrapping it all up with stories, laughs, and a few surprises. Don’t miss this celebration of everything God has done—and everything we’ve loved—this year at Oasis!

At our final Oasis of the year, Brennen preaches from Acts 3—where Peter doesn’t just heal a lame man, he opens the door for worship. This is the church in motion: bold, powerful, and people-focused. It’s not about buildings or organizations—it’s about removing barriers and meeting real needs so others can encounter Jesus. Acts 3 shows us that the Church is the people of God, empowered by the Spirit, to remove barriers and invites others into relationship with Jesus.

What do you look for in a church? Most of us start with preferences—worship style, preaching, or size. But what if we began with Christ’s priorities instead? In this episode, we explore five essential traits every church should pursue. No church is perfect, but when we focus on what matters most, our preferences find their proper place.

One of the greatest supernatural moments in history happens right in Acts 2. God's people have been told that one day, the Holy Spirit would come dwell with them and lead them on the right paths. Yet in Acts 2, we see this day arrive. The Spirit is poured out in abundance and equips the apostles to preach the Gospel to a crowd in Jerusalem. Over 3,000 people respond and receive God's gracious salvation, signifying the start of the early church. What the Spirit ignited is a movement that is still happening today. We are people who are filled and equipped by the Spirit to continue living out our call to go and make disciples of all nations.

As Jesus ascends to heaven, the disciples stand staring at the sky—until they’re reminded to go and share the good news. Acts 1 marks the moment the Church is called to align with God’s mission. Empowered by the Spirit, we’re sent to make more followers of Jesus. So what does it look like for you to partner with God in His work of restoration?

Have you ever felt like God was silent? Like your prayers were hitting a wall or your faith was just… dry? In this episode, we’re talking about spiritually dry seasons—the ones where it feels like nothing is growing, and yet, something deeper might be happening beneath the surface. We’ll unpack the symptoms of these seasons, explore what God might be doing in the silence, and offer practical ways to stay rooted when your soul feels weary. Whether you’re in a dry season or walking alongside someone who is, this episode is for you.

All of us have influence! No matter how many people you know or the number of followers you have, you have influence! Whether it’s the group chat, the walk to class, or those late-night heart-to-hearts, your presence and consistency matter more than you think. In this episode, we’ll unpack what influence really is and help you spot the everyday spaces where God’s already using you!

Beneath the surface of our lives lies an iceberg of unspoken dreams, buried hopes, quiet disappointments, and hidden struggles. Over time, we’ve become skilled at concealing what’s really going on inside. But in the life of Jesus, we see a different way—through the practice of solitude. Solitude is where Jesus faces his pain honestly, brings his emotions before the Father, and surrenders His desires for the will of God. In the same way, solitude invites us to meet with a Father who sees us fully, hears us deeply, and brings healing to the hidden places within.

Feeling overwhelmed by all the spiritual disciplines out there? You’re not alone! In our Practicing the Way series, we’ve explored four key disciplines— scripture, sabbath, solitude, and fasting. But knowing them isn’t the same as living them. Join us as we dive into real, practical ways to build lasting rhythms that challenge, transform, and lead to a lifetime of fruit with God!

Fasting is a way we offer our bodies to God, setting aside food and drink to make space for Him. As we step away from instant comforts, the Spirit gently uncovers what’s hidden in us—and meets us there with healing, freedom, and truth. Through fasting, we see God’s heart more clearly: a heart that longs for all people to know His redemption. And we’re reminded—sin is already defeated. Jesus has won. Fasting doesn’t transform us because we get it right, but because God’s grace always does.
