Seniors Spark Spiritual Fire at Passion Conference

To kick off the new year, Pastor Nolan took 16 seniors to the Passion Conference in downtown Atlanta Jan 2-4.

 

Rooted in the confession of Isaiah 26:8, Passion exists to glorify God by uniting students in worship, prayer, and justice for spiritual awakening in this generation. From its start in 1995, the Passion movement has had a singular mission - calling students from campuses across the nation and around the world to live for what matters most...the name and renown of Jesus. 

 

During the three days of the conference, attendees heard from a variety of Christian speakers, musicians, and special guests, including Crowder, Christine Caine, Louie Giglio, Lecrae, and Matt Chandler.

 

We asked senior Alexa Cosgrove to share her experience at this year's Passion Conference. Click below to read her story!
