Cultivate

In Luke 13 there is a story of a “hurting” woman who had lost hope. She had an unexpected life-changing encounter with Jesus. We will look at the process He took with her, which is surprising. We will also see the enemy’s process in her life. We will discover 3 things that will help us develop habits of hope.

Do you ever feel like your world is out of your control, leaving only fear and anxiety in its wake? Everywhere we turn, we are confronted with scary news headlines, morally questionable cultural norms, crippling financial crises, and so much more. It is no wonder so many of us feel stuck in a pattern of chaos with no end in sight. Well, I have good news for you… a source of hope in that chaos.

Discover the power of prayer through creativity with making your own prayer board. As Matthew 6:6 reminds us, “When you pray, go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” This is your time to connect with God, reflect on His promises, and visually express your hopes and prayers. Join us to craft a board that inspires faith, encourages hope, and reminds you that every prayer, seen or unseen, matters.

Child loss is a grief that no mother ever expects to walk through. In this panel style discussion, mothers who have experienced the loss of a child at different ages and stages of life will share their stories. Together they will speak about grief, healing, and the hope that can still be found even in the deepest sorrow, but only found through Christ. Whether your loss is recent or many years ago, or maybe you are supporting someone close to you who has experienced loss, this conversation is meant to offer comfort and connection. This will serve as a reminder that you are not alone. The God of the universes sees you, loves you, and is still writing your story! *Note: This breakout will only be offered on Friday

My hope is that you leave encouraged, grounded in truth, and confident that God is good to His promises and His timing. You’re not behind, and you’re not stuck. You’re becoming exactly who He’s calling you to be. *This session will only be offered on Friday during breakout session 1
