Making Jesus what I long for

unbothered by the judgments of others

Facing every circumstance with God and confidence

Refreshed as I give myself away

Description: In a world full of surface-level connection, many of us are aching for something deeper. We long to be known, loved, and supported in meaningful ways—but often struggle to find that kind of community.

Together, we'll discover five practices that can help us build the kind of Christ-centered community we were created for.
