Breakout Teaching Sessions

Mel Jefferey | Fans VS Disciples
In this powerful and honest session, we’ll dive into Jesus’ words about counting the cost of following Him. We’ll explore the difference between being a churchgoer and being a true follower on fire for Christ. What separates casual belief from surrendered devotion? What are the real indicators of a disciple? Together, we’ll unpack the contrast between religion that checks boxes and authentic friendship with God that produces lasting fruit.
Pablo Schmitzhaus | Love VS Lust
Catalina Laurenas | How to Study Your Bible
Dallas Wigston | Worship 101
How to be a healthy and successful worship team member in your local church. Together we will explore how to thrive in the spiritual, emotional and practical elements of being on a worship team.

Linda Gould | Anchored in Jesus
Kieran Densham | Living Fully Loved
Have you ever felt like you had to earn love or prove your worth? We’ll explore what it means to stop living like an orphan and start living confidently as a deeply beloved child of God.
Sara Kancherla | Friendship With Jesus
Salvation is free, but friendship with Jesus is costly. We were created for relationship, and Jesus invites us into a deep and intimate friendship with Him. This kind of friendship requires faithfulness, devotion, and hearts set apart for Him. As He promises to be our most faithful friend, He looks for those who will love Him well and remain close to Him, even when others turn away.
