A weekend designed to help you understand Scripture, live on mission, and make disciples.

What is an ARISE Intensive?

Once in a while, we all need a reset in our Christian experience, whether you’re a brand-new Christian or a 103-year-old church elder. Join us for a weekend that aims to reintroduce you to the God of the most beautiful story ever told—a story all about redemption, relationship, restoration, and re-creation.

During the weekend, we’ll be breaking down the big picture of Scripture, reframing who God is in light of the Bible as a story, and giving you some practical tools for your Christian experience and witness. Our hope is that as we dig into scripture, you’ll fall in love with God all over again and become part of an active community of storytellers who want to build His Kingdom.

Need to reset your Christian experience?

Does the Bible seem dry, disconnected, or irrelevant?
Is it hard to see a God of love in all of Scripture?
Do you want to grow confident in sharing your faith?

Are you tired of being in spiritual survival mode?
Do you want a more meaningful and consistent walk with Jesus?
Do you struggle to connect with people and make disciples?
