This year at Focus, we want to equip you not just to be a disciple, but to make disciples – in your family, at your job, or wherever God sends you. We want to help you not only be part of a community, we want to help you build one!
We’re going to walk through the book of Romans and see how the apostle Paul did just that. We’ll grow as God’s word renews our minds, challenges our hearts, and equips our hands – all for the work of making disciples.
Registration opens Wednesday, March 27 at noon.

Abide: How the Gospel Affects Our Everyday Life
What does it look like to live out the gospel in our everyday lives? We'll explore the disciplines that flow from God's grace and help us to live out the gospel each day.
Bible Study 201
We want to help enhance your Bible study leading skills and offer you further training in how to skillfully use the Bible to minister to others.
Discipleship 201
We know we are called to make disciples, but how do we do that? What should we talk about, and how? In Discipleship 201 we’ll seek to hone and sharpen your discipleship skills.

Are you a senior? Then this track is for you! We’ll explore what it looks like to practically pursue discipleship in life after college.
