From Series: "Feels: Thriving in the valleys"

Big Idea of the Series: Sometimes our spiritual lives feel like a series of peaks and valleys. One moment, we feel like we are soaring high; the next, we experience a crushing low. This is a series about when we do and don’t feel God’s presence. We examine the journey of faith through the stories of biblical characters: Elijah, Paul, Moses, Daniel, Joseph, and Peter. Along the way, students will learn about contentment, doubt and trust, gratitude, God’s sovereignty, and the mission of Jesus.
