The Big Event Track Descriptions

Living for Jesus: Transformation

Jesus wants us to know him, not just about him. As we learn to live in Christ, he transforms us into his image for the sake of others. Discover the foundations for Christian growth which have shaped the work, worship, and witness of the Church for over 2,000 years.

Hearing from Jesus: Scripture

The Word of God is alive and powerful – but it often doesn’t feel that way when we’re reading it. We’ll acquire the tools we need to understand Scripture more clearly and apply it more faithfully. Jesus speaks to us through the Bible. Learn to listen.

Growing in Jesus: Spiritual Friendship

Transformational relationships ignite when we encourage each other to grow as followers of Jesus. Explore ways to help your friends mature in their faith – through Scripture, prayer, conversation, and study – and get the tools you need to enable future generations grow in Christ.

Serving with Jesus: Leadership

Jesus calls. He sends. We respond. Many of us said “Yes!” when Jesus invited us to mobilize others for God's mission. Learn to serve as a leader in your chapter and the Church. Cast vision. Set goals. Build a team. Become the leader Jesus calls you to be.

(More than) Singing to Jesus: Worship Leader Training

It’s more than a song: true worship focuses us on God: Father, Son & Holy Spirit. And good worship leaders create God-honoring experiences through song and art, word and personality, character and community. Learn the skills you need to lead your chapter (and your church) in diverse worship.  *** Staff Worker approval is needed to attend this track.

Speaking of Jesus: Evangelism

Evangelism intimidates us. We have many reasons to stay silent: “I’m afraid of rejection.” “I don’t know what to say.” “I don’t care about the lost." But when we share the Gospel, we experience God’s presence intimately and God’s power exponentially. Grow you faith by giving it away.

Calling on Jesus: Prayer

Through prayer, Jesus invites us to listen to his plans, to share his concerns, and to intercede for his purposes. This track will equip our chapters to pray – individually and corporately – with power and passion as we’re caught up in what Jesus is doing on campus.

We are looking forward to seeing you at the Big Event!
