Are you between the ages of 19 and 29, and finding the world of adulting is harder than you thought? As you’re trying to navigate life on your own, have you found yourself more aware than ever that Jesus’ warnings about the devil coming to steal, kill, and destroy are true, but you’re not sure what to do? Well, you’re not alone. Many Christians live in denial, letting the enemy steal their joy and blessings, destroy their relationship with Jesus, and kill their purpose and identity. But no more! For a limited time, we’re offering a resource to help you stay armed and ready to live in daily victory! Please contact the church administrative office for more information!
