Keynotes & General Sessions

John Barnette
A Firm Foundation
Being rooted in truth and faith means building your life on something unshakable—God’s Word and His promises. When Christ is your foundation, you can stand firm through uncertainty, knowing your identity and purpose are secure in Him. He is the rock beneath your feet, the anchor that holds you steady.

Various Presenters
On Purpose, With Purpose: God’s Hand in Our Journeys
This panel brings together individuals who have uncovered their purpose by leaning deeply into their faith. Through seasons of doubt, growth, and surrender, each has discovered how God uniquely called them to live with intention and impact. Their stories reflect how trusting God’s plan can lead to clarity, confidence, and a life rooted in something greater.

John Harbaugh
You May Not Understand Now, But You Will
Life is full of moments when we don’t understand what God is doing. Whether it’s unanswered prayers, unexpected detours, or seasons of struggle, we often find ourselves asking, Why, God? In John 13:7, Jesus reassures His disciples that though they don’t understand now, they will in time. This keynote explores the tension of uncertainty, the challenge of trusting God when we don’t have all the answers, and the faithfulness of God in bringing understanding in His perfect timing.
Small Groups
Small groups are where faith and community come to life. It’s a space to go beyond the surface, take on big topics, and dive deeper into God’s truth—all while building authentic relationships. Together, we’ll ask questions, share experiences, and grow in a way that strengthens both our faith and our friendships. Real conversations. Real connections. Real growth.

Worship
Worship is more than just music—it’s a powerful way to connect with God, express praise, and deepen your faith. Throughout the Purpose Conference, a live band will lead us in worship, creating an atmosphere where you can experience God in a fresh and meaningful way. Whether it’s an intimate acoustic set or a full worship night, every moment will be an opportunity to lift your heart in praise. We can’t wait to worship with you!

Give Back Hour: Hope & Hygiene Bags for the Homeless
Join us for a meaningful one-hour service opportunity during our Purpose Conference. Together, we’ll assemble hope and hygiene bags for the homeless filled with essential supplies and a handwritten note of encouragement. Your small act of kindness can make a big difference in someone’s day. Let’s come together to spread hope, dignity, and love—one bag at a time.
Caravan
On the final morning of Purpose 2025, we’ll come together one last time to worship with local churches across the area! We’ll provide a list of service times and locations, and organize groups so you can attend with new friends. It’s a great way to experience different church communities while wrapping up the weekend in worship and fellowship.
