Raising a generation with wholehearted devotion to Jesus Christ

Gathering around the Table in temple courts and breaking bread in homes.

Our vision is seeing and hearing 10 out of 10 students experience revival in their hearts for the renewal of 10 cities. Worship Experience and Tribe Nights are where revival begins to raise a generation of sons and daughters with wholehearted devotion to Jesus Christ—anchored in our core value: Gathering Around The Table.

We are a spiritual family who gather around a literal table with food to celebrate that our belonging, identity, and purpose is in Him. Here, we are fully seen, known, and loved by the Father. Discipleship becomes real when we gather together in His Presence.

Worship Experiences are about encountering the Presence of God through being with Him and serving like Him.

  • From 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. at our Southern Pines and Seven Lakes campuses.
  • 30 minutes of engaging hangout time through a meal or games.
  • 30 minutes of celebrating God’s Presence through worship in song, prayer, and taking communion.
  • 30 minutes of passionate Biblical Teachings with relevant application.
  • 30 minutes of personal or Tribe reflection response.

Tribe Nights are about experiencing the freedom of being fully seen, known, and loved through belonging. We follow the rhythms of the Word, Fellowship, Communion, and Prayer—not as the end goal, but as a means to experience more of His Presence in and through us.

Join us from 5:30–7:30 p.m.  

Students have time to be intentional in community with other students of the same gender and age. There are roughly 5 to 15 people with 2 to 3 adult leaders that we call Tribe Leaders. We share a meal, have some fun icebreakers, reflect on our week, talk through whatever sermon(s) or curriculum we are doing, and pray for one another. Tribe Nights take place in homes, church campuses, and locations across the city.
