Track 1: Building Faith

Why and how does a person follow Jesus? Using Jesus' life and ministry as our guide, learn with us what it means to be a Christ follower. In this track, each of us will be stepping into the shoes of Jesus' first disciples, learning about the Kingdom of God and what it means to be a part of it, for the very first time. Wherever you're at with faith these days, sign up for this track if you want to be refreshed by the simplicity and beauty of the person of Christ.

Track 2: Reconstructing Faith

How do we make sense of following Jesus in the midst of questions and turmoil in and around us? The language of deconstruction and reconstruction has become more common in many Christian circles. Join us for a weekend of diving into how to ask good questions when we experience tension in our faith journeys and how to stay connected to Jesus and others during personal seasons of church hurt, confusion or turmoil.

Track 3: Helping Others Build Faith

Do you want to share your faith with those around you, but don't know where to start? Do you have a heart for those who have been hurt by the church and have understandable concerns about institutionalized religion? Do you believe that despite these challenges, everyone around you needs to know the love of Jesus? If you answered yes to these questions, this might be the right track for you.
