The world says, “Love yourself.” The Word says, “Love God and love others.” In this thought-provoking night with young adults, our lead pastor, Pastor Pat Nemmers challenges the modern obsession with self-love and explores the dangers of making yourself the center of your world. He unpacks Matthew 22:34-40 to uncover the truth about wholehearted love: what it means to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind and to love our neighbors as ourselves.

Join us as we navigate the pitfalls of self-focused living and embrace the freedom, purpose and joy found in loving God and others with everything we’ve got.

Men’s Ministry Director Kyhl Pearson dives into a crucial topic: relationships. Drawing from personal experiences, Biblical wisdom, and real questions from today’s culture, Kyhl addresses love in relationships and the common lies that drive us to isolation. Using Romans 12 as a foundation, he discusses how to build genuine connections based on five principles of true, Biblical love: rejecting lies, holding fast to what is good, putting others first, letting go of grudges, and grounding everything in the Gospel.

The nagging "what if" in your heart. The constant second-guesses. The overwhelming hopeless feeling. That paralyzing panic. According to the 2023 census 49% of adults age 18-24 reported anxiety and depression symptoms. To fight against the "what if" we have to change our point of view from "what if" to "what is". Join us as we study Philippians 4 and look deeper into what the Bible says about anxiety. It may just be a point of view shift.

What makes you happy? What brings you fulfillment?  These are big questions. In order to find your true purpose, in order to find your true identity, you find in the Bible that one must first encounter Jesus. Study John 3 with us as we look deeper in the story of Jesus and man named Nicodemus and what it means to encounter Jesus and be invited to true purpose and fulfillment.

Your point of view directly impacts your interaction with the world around you and your thoughts and emotions. Your reality is shaped by your point of view.
