From the youngest ages you can disciple kids to be the worshipers God made them to be. Learn the many tools you can use to lead little ones in meaningful and powerful times of praise using intentional playlists and the right size songs. Yancy will share from scripture the power of kid’s worship and champion you to lead well. Yancy will share how to raise up this generation of disciples to love to worship. [Preschool]

Are you dissatisfied with the level of engagement your kids have in worship? Do you have an inkling there could be more? You’re not the only one. Yancy will tackle common issues leaders experience in getting kids engaged during worship. You will leave empowered to make changes that will help your kids take steps to fall more in love with Jesus by experiencing His presence during worship. [All Ages]

This breakout will be a game changer for how you lead kids in worship. You must do more than just press play on a song to help kids learn how to worship. With a passion for teaching kids to be the worshipers God created them to be, Yancy will help you look at David’s life and his example of worship and share practical steps that will help you lead kids into God’s presence. [All Ages]

How do you help kids understand what worship is, why we do it, and how they can take part in it? The Bible uses different Hebrew words for praise and worship. Each one helps us learn how to worship the Lord. Yancy is passionate about raising disciples through worship and will teach you these words so YOU can lead and engage your kids to be the worshipers God created them to be. [All Ages]

Let’s plant the seeds of a great weekend together! The Bible is full of lessons that compare Christians to growing plants. Join us as we sing, create, play, and move our way through God’s Word, learning to bear fruit for His glory. [All Ages]

How can we respond to loved ones who are deconstructing their faith? How can we discern if they are truly seeking truth or seeking their own preferences? In this session, Alisa will talk about how to spot the signs of deconstruction and highlight some practical steps we can take to navigate relationships with those who are going through it.

A movement called ‘deconstruction’ is sweeping through our churches and it is affecting our loved ones. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of so many. For some, it leads to a custom-made spirituality. For others, deconstructing their faith leads them away from the truth into agnosticism, atheism, the occult, or humanism. In this talk, Tim will help you understand what deconstruction is, where it comes from, why it is compelling to some, and how it disorients the lives of so many. You will be able to think through the main issues around faith deconstruction and explore wise and loving ways to respond from a biblical worldview.

There are three dominant strongholds (i.e. worldviews) that permeate our culture and hinder people from coming to a salvific knowledge of God. In this session, you will learn what they are, how to identify them, and how to respond accordingly.

Christians often think there’s something wrong about questioning or even doubting their faith. In this session, we’ll see that asking the big questions is not an option for disciples of Jesus even if we experience some doubts. We need to lean into these doubts in order to find truth, knowledge and even greater faith.

Tim Barnett shares about himself and how he found himself becoming a social media influencer in the apologetic space. Plus, he shares a little about the current state of social media and deconstructing christianity. 

Alisa Childers shares her testimony of growing up in a hippy Christian household, to being in a Christian pop-rock band, to deconstructing her faith, to finally finding the answers she was looking for.
