Friday 7:00 Pm - 9:00 PM | saturday 9:00 am - 4:00 pm


What if freedom is finally learning to live from who God says you are?
So many of us know what it feels like to strive, to perform, to carry shame, or to wonder if we're really enough.
Jesus offers us something different.

Freedom.

Freedom to know who we are.
Freedom to be still and hear His voice.
Freedom to receive His love instead of trying to earn it.
Freedom to live from that place and help others find it too.

DISCOVERY LAB SESSIONS

From Warriors to Peacemakers: 
The Transforming Power of the Gospel

by: Jenifer Awilli

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”  John 8:36

In Karamoja, Uganda, Jennifer has witnessed the transforming power of Jesus in the lives of people who once lived in cycles of violence and fear. In this session, she will explore how the Gospel brings true freedom, transforms identity, restores hope, and empowers transformed people to become peacemakers and disciple-makers in their communities.

A Deeper Freedom: 
Following Jesus Through Change, Surrender, and Transformation

by: Tyson Bradley & Lenée Fuelling 

What if some of what stands between us and deeper freedom is a loss we’ve never named? A relationship that changed, a belief that shifted, or a desire that hasn’t been fulfilled can leave a mark, especially when there’s no clear ending or resolution. Following Jesus means surrender, and surrender can come with loss.

In this experiential session, we’ll explore what may be beneath the things we carry and enter into contemplative listening prayer with Jesus, bringing Him what we’ve been carrying and making space for His presence, perspective, and freedom in the midst of it.

The Healing Journey:
A Roadmap for Hearts in Pain

Anchored:
Finding Freedom When Circumstances
Are Out of Your Control

by: Jason Dunn

by: Mary Bower

Knowing that our hearts are in pain is often much easier than discerning exactly what is hurting or how to move toward healing. In this session, Jason will provide a practical healing roadmap that uses persistent negative emotions as clues to uncover the deeper sources of pain.

These challenging feelings can become a gift from God, helping us identify the root causes of our affliction and recognize the spiritual interventions that can move us toward freedom.
What if living in freedom means learning to trust God in the very places where fear tells us we are not free? Throughout the Bible we see stories of God allowing his people to face seemingly impossible situations —not to harm them, but to reveal His faithfulness and show us that He is greater than what we fear.

Scripture tells us to “consider it pure joy” when we face trials of many kinds, because testing produces perseverance and strengthens our faith. Freedom is not found in a life without hardship, but in witnessing God’s faithfulness in the midst of the storm.

WHAT DOES FREEDOM IN JESUS LOOK LIKE? 

FREE FROM CONDEMNATION 

“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” — Romans 8:1

In Jesus, we don't have to hide from God or spend our lives trying to prove that we're worthy of His love. We can come to Him honestly, receive His grace, and live from the assurance that we belong to Him.  

FREE TO BE WHO GOD CREATED YOU TO BE 

“If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” — John 8:36

The world gives us countless ways to define ourselves: our success, our failures, our relationships, our reputation, our past. Jesus gives us a different foundation. Our identity begins with Him.

FREE TO SURRENDER AND TRUST 

“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10

Freedom doesn't mean being in control of everything. Sometimes freedom looks like letting go. Learning to be still. Listening to God. Trusting Him with the things we've been carrying on our own.  

FREE TO LIVE FOR OTHERS 

“For you were called to freedom... through love serve one another.” — Galatians 5:13

The freedom Jesus gives us was never meant to stop with us. As we experience His love and freedom, we become free to love, serve, forgive, make disciples, and carry His life into the places and people around us.
