    What About Transgenderism?

    Do you know someone that identifies as transgender? Maybe you know someone that struggles with their gender identity? The internal sense of being male, female or something else is often referred to as an individual’s gender. It may be difficult to understand how our Christian faith impacts the way we think about gender. This session will discuss the identity we have in Christ. You will learn what God’s Word says and how to speak with others about gender identity and your Christian identity. This session is presented by Rev. Dr. Mark Rockenbach.

    Does God Even Care About Sports?

    Sports dominate our culture, often demanding our time, passion, and identity. But how do faith and sports connect? Does God care about wins and losses—or is there something greater at play when we compete? In this session, we’ll explore the relationship between Christianity and sport. We’ll look at what Scripture and our faith say about athletics, and how sports can actually deepen our understanding of the Christian life. Whether you’re an athlete or a fan, you’ll leave with a clearer view of how your love for the game connects to your identity in Christ—on and off the field.

    Who You Are, Whose You Are

    In this session, Rev. Dr. Nabil Nour challenges the youth to consider WHO they are and WHOSE they are. Our world has lost its moral compass. Many don't know their identity. Many can't tell what a man or woman is. Some (even Christians) are being challenged in their identity. Speaking in love through the sweet Gospel, he reminds them that they are more than a number— they are divinely created in the image of God. He expounds on this by using seven (7) terms: "You are the Baptized, Beloved, Beautiful, Blessed, Bound and Blood-Bought children of King Jesus." This session is presented by Rev. Dr. Nabil Nour.
