God, Where Are You?
This four-week youth series examines the idea of feeling ghosted by God. The Christian life will have seasons where God seems distant and silent. Understanding this is a normal part of the life of faith is important, so we’re not caught unaware. More than that, God can use these times to grow our faith. We can rely on the promises that God will never leave us and that the inner work of the Spirit will help us persevere and experience God’s faithfulness.

Give Thanks: Gratitude In All Circumstances
This three-week Thanksgiving series addresses how we can develop a heart of gratitude to God, which in turn leads to generous giving. Thankfulness is not an occasional act but a lifestyle of intentional and spontaneous appreciation that leads us into the presence of God, empowers us to be grateful in all circumstances, and generates an overflow of generosity.
