We exist to awaken this generation to new life in Jesus Christ.
We’re so glad you’re here! If you’re new to Awakening, we would love to get to know you and for you to get to know us! The best way to do that is by filling out a Connection Card.
Controversial Jesus | Part 4: Jesus & Marriage
In the age of consumer reviews and social media shaming, there is a tendency to confine to the mold of society’s expectation of us. And yet Jesus offers a vision of human flourishing that stands at odds with the cultural value system of our day. We tend to forget that His teaching was as radical and controversial in His day as it is in ours.
Join us as we go through Matthew 5:17-37 and look at what Jesus says about some of today’s most controversial issues and what it means to follow Jesus.
The White Tent
Behind the connection cart you will find a hub for people who are new to Awakening. This is a space we encourage you to point new people as well as your own guests to. At The White Tent (previously known the white balloons) there will be treats & gifts, staff members & connection team members excited to welcome and get to know those who are new to our community!

INTRO
Awakening’s Connect Track is your pathway to community and a space designed for you to experience belonging and getting to know us more as a church. Our Intro class is an in-depth look at our story as a church, hearing your story, and where you fit in here. Intro walks you through our philosophy of ministry and gives you the opportunity to start serving with us through joining a ministry, depending on your interest and spiritual gifts!

Food Pantry | Every 1st & 3rd Thursday

Have you bought your Awakening t-shirt?
If you weren’t able to buy your Awakening T-shirt at our 11th Birthday we will be selling them for the next 2 Sundays starting this week!
Join the Café Team!
As the weather starts to cool down we would love to bring back hot coffee to Café and say goodbye to cold brew until next summer. In order to make this happen we need you! It takes more hands than we have to make this possible, and we know how much Awakening loves their hot coffee. Join the Café Team and help us bring back the hot coffee!
