Values 2034: We Have Fun Together
Church should be fun. Kids and youth ministries know this, but somehow “adult church” seems to have forgotten or even rejected this idea. Maybe it’s time to recapture the fun of following Jesus together.
Support Refugees Interest Meeting (BP Campus)
Learn how you can partner with Arrive Ministries to assist refugee families affected by the recent presidential executive orders.
Setting Healthy Boundaries
Healthy boundaries create healthy relationships. Broken boundaries create broken relationships. Learn how to have more of the former and less of the latter.
Creating Emotional Safety
Relationships thrive when we feel safe to be honest, vulnerable, and truly known. In this message, we’ll explore how to create an environment of emotional safety in our marriages, friendships, families, and church community.
Tackling Conflict Head-On
When we directly face conflict with honesty, empathy, and a willingness to listen, we can transform tension into an opportunity for growth and deeper relationships with our loved ones and with God.
Honoring Your Father and Mother
Do adult children still have to obey their parents? Is it possible to disagree with or even disobey your parents while still honoring them? Find out how to walk that delicate balance.
Valuing Children in the Kingdom of God
Jesus made it clear that children have a special place in God’s Kingdom, and how we treat them reflects our understanding of His love. Come explore how honoring the youngest among us deepens our faith and transforms our relationships.
Healing Family Wounds
Family wounds can run deep, but God’s grace runs deeper. In this special experiential service, we’ll create space for prayer, reflection, and healing as we seek God’s restoration in our family relationships. Come and experience the hope and healing Jesus offers.

Values 2034: We are Courageously Transparent
Honesty is scary. But it’s also critical in building trust and community. So, we will be courageous in being real and transparent about our lives, families, and ministries.
Values 2034: We Entrust the Next Generation
We don’t just value the next generation, but we entrust them—with our time, our space, our dollars, and our ministry. This means that everyone is invested in their spiritual growth, character development, and mission focus.
Values 2034: We Have an Abundance Mindset
It’s easy to live out of a scarcity mindset, hording and protecting precious resources. But the kingdom of God is marked by abundance, so we will operate out of God’s overflowing abundance and limitless supply of everything we need.
Values 2034: We Are Ministers of Restoration
From Genesis to Revelation, God’s story is one of restoration, weaving through its narrative God’s work to redeem, heal, and restore humanity and creation. The Church is the primary tool for that restoration.
Values 2034: We Apprentice Under Jesus
Being a Christian is not simply believing in Jesus and saying you’re a Christian, it’s becoming an apprentice under Jesus. This involves being with Jesus, becoming like him, and doing what he did.
