Breakout Sessions
On Saturday, you’ll have the opportunity to choose one breakout during each session. Each breakout explores a different area of following Christ faithfully in everyday life.
Breakout Session 1
11:20 AM–12:15 PM
Spiritual motherhood, mentoring & discipleship
What does it look like for women to intentionally help other women follow Christ? This session will explore spiritual motherhood, mentoring, and the beauty of women encouraging and discipling one another across generations.
Identity, body image, aging & ability
Our culture places tremendous value on how we look, what we can accomplish, and what our bodies are able to do. This panel conversation will explore body image, aging, ability, and performance through the lens of the gospel—and what it means to root our identity in Christ rather than our appearance or abilities.
Growing in understanding and delight in Scripture
How do we approach the Bible in a way that helps us understand what we’re reading and know Christ more deeply? This session will offer practical encouragement for reading, understanding, and remaining rooted in God’s Word.
Breakout Session 2
1:30–2:25 PM
Sharing Christ in everyday life
Evangelism doesn’t only happen through formal ministries or planned conversations. This session will explore how we can speak about Christ with faithfulness, wisdom, and confidence in the ordinary relationships and rhythms of our lives.
Bringing the gospel into everyday parenting
What does it look like for the gospel to shape the way we parent? This practical session will explore how the good news of Jesus can shape our responses, discipline, conversations, and the everyday discipleship of our children.
Following Christ in every season
Married, dating, single, or widowed, our relationship status does not determine our value or purpose in God’s kingdom. This panel conversation will explore what it means to pursue Christ wholeheartedly, embrace the season God has placed us in, and live faithfully wherever we are.
