It’s time to celebrate a big milestone—Move Up Sunday is happening on August 17th! On this special day, all kids and students will move up to their new grade or age group in our ministries. Whether they’re heading into a new classroom, joining a new group, or stepping into a new phase, we’re excited to walk with them every step of the way. Let’s kick off the new school year together with energy, encouragement, and fun!

In the month of August, our sermon series will be "Jesus' Encounters.” 

One of the big barriers for people to believe in Christianity is that  they think they know all about it already. There is an assumption that people think they know what Christians believe. But if we look at Jesus’ encounters with different individuals during His life, we find some of our preconceived ideas are challenged. These conversations weren’t a set of talking points - instead, we find Jesus meeting people at the point of their big questions: Who am I, and why am I here? Why be a good person? Why love instead of hate? Can anything make the world right?

In this series, we will explore those encounters and how they can still address our doubts and questions, and give us God’s direction for our lives. Join us and invite someone as we look at “Jesus’ Encounters.” 

It’s time for our annual Buckner Back to School Bash! We’ll soon have the opportunity for you to pick out a family to support at Crestview Connect. You’ll provide a backpack and a pair of shoes for each child, helping them start the school year with confidence.

What is the Gospel’s impact when it is brought out of the church and into our world? There are many effects of the Gospel, but one of them is that the Gospel leads to transformed lives. It has the power to transform people from death to life - from darkness to light. In today’s world, encouraging others to adopt your convictions and beliefs is not usually welcomed. But for Christians, sharing our faith, no matter what kind of culture we’re in, is both necessary and reasonable.

WHAT IS TRUE COLORS?

Intrinsic in human nature is the need for self-esteem and confidence, two characteristics widely recognized as the basis for successful behavior. True Colors® has been created as the vocabulary through which people can communicate the expression of their character. Not unlike an actor or mime, people assume roles – actions and behaviors that develop their individual character. Most people believe their character is separate and unique from others. However, distinct similarities arise among groups of people, even when basic characteristics appear to be different. The adage, “birds of a feather flock together” is indeed accurate. True Colors® is an easy, entertaining way to identify your character and better understand yourself and others. It is an invaluable tool for enjoying success in your professional life and workplace, as well as with family and in personal relationships

February 28th, 6:00-8:30 pm in our Worship Center, we will be hosting the "True Colors" couples event. Through a deeper look at scripture and the True Colors®️ personality assessment, you can develop greater strength in your relationship. Join us for a great night with food, fun, and growth as we learn how to improve our communication, understanding, and respect for those vital relationships in our life! $30 per couple covers the meal and the evening's presentation and materials.
