OneHeart Conference is a power-packed weekend full of connection, excitement, and encounter with God. It is a place where 6th – 12th grade students come to build relationships, be inspired, and be equipped to live as disciples of Jesus Christ. Our desire is to bring students together with ‘One Heart’ and in one accord to encounter God and to leave better equipped to follow Christ daily.
This year, our conference theme is ‘ABBA’.
Our world is lost, like children without a father. The blind are leading the blind into deeper and deeper sin and sorrow. People are searching for significance, but nothing in this world can quench their thirst. They do not know who they are; they do not know their true Father.
Jesus reveals to us the true nature of God: He is a Father! His heart aches for His lost sons and daughters to come home. He longs for this so much that He sent Jesus to rescue humanity from the grip of sin. Jesus came to show the world what God is really like: true, loving, just, merciful, and patient.
This year’s One Heart Conference theme is “Abba.” Each session will explore a different aspect of the Parable of the Prodigal Son. We will emphasize themes such as Identity in Christ, the Love of the Father, Grace and Salvation, and the Truth of Christ in response to the lies of culture.
Teenagers from all over the Midwest will come together with ONE HEART to worship God, encounter the Holy Spirit, and embrace the call to live as disciples of Jesus.
