God's Will: How can I know it?
Graham Spruill
Everyone asks the question, “What am I supposed to do with my life?” Believing in Jesus gives you the answer to that question: follow God’s will. But what does that actually mean? In this breakout, we will survey the Bible’s teaching on God’s will. We will look at both the freedom and boundaries within God’s will so we can walk with confidence wherever He leads us.

Bible: How does it form us?
Luke Peterson
Every day at all moments you are becoming someone. You will be passively conformed into becoming a product of anything and everything around you unless you become ruthlessly intentional about what is forming you. We want to inspire you to make the Bible the primary source of formation in your life, not just a book to read and finish.

Prayer: How do I talk with God
Mark Arant
If you want to make a Christian feel guilty, just ask them about their prayer life. But the good news is that we are all beginners when it comes to following Jesus, especially in the area of prayer.

Is it possible for be to expereince freedom from my sin? So often we feel trapped in our sin – but it’s entirely possible for us to expereince freedom from it.
