Breakout Sessions
-
Verse 8 contains vocabulary and themes that are theologically rich and repeated across the whole Bible. In this breakout room we will look at the broad use of this motif throughout Scripture to see God's consistent character, and the development of his self-revelation through its pages. (Chapel)
-
We’re not to hide God’s greatness! Dive into Psalm 145 with us as we focus on God’s character and zoom in on evangelism as an overflow of adoration and worship of God in the life of a Christian. Let this passage remind each of us of our call to live obedient lives, marked by a daily declaration of who He is through both word and deed. (Conference Room A)
-
Grace. This is something we hear often in church or in discipleship and for some of us, we don’t know what that means. We know how the Lord showed us His grace when He sent Jesus to die and rise on the third day but why is it hard for us to believe it affects us today? In this breakout, we will be discussing how to view grace as a real thing and not just an idea we are supposed to believe in. (Conference Room B)
-
In this breakout we will dive into an understanding of God’s righteousness and Kindness, discussing examples of his righteousness in our lives. (Game Room)
-
In this breakout, we will discuss Psalm 145:18-19. We will dive into what it means to call on the Lord in truth, and understanding what it means for the Lord to fulfill the desire of those who fear him. (Cafeteria)
