Join us for an exciting weekend retreat as we dive into the life of John the Baptist and discover what it means to live with true humility by pointing everything back to Jesus Christ! Through an in-depth study of John the Baptist, we’ll explore what it looks like to live a life of worship where every part of our lives revolves around Christ and brings Him glory.
We’ll also hear from a special guest speaker in two sessions on theological triage, exploring the authority and significance of God’s Word and how we can grow in biblical understanding. Together, we’ll be emboldened to stand firm in Scripture, grow in unity and faith, and pursue a shared commitment to living wholeheartedly for Christ. Come ready for a weekend of fellowship, spiritual growth, and a refreshing time with the College and Young Singles ministry!

“He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. So this joy of mine has been made full. He must increase, but I must decrease." - John 3:29-30 (NASB95)
Join us for four exciting sessions on the life of John the Baptist!
