Theme Verse

Psalm 51:10

“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.”

Spiritual Direction

This summer, we will look at the Psalms of David to discover an honest and real representation of the life of the believer. Through David, we see an example of a man whose heart is continually being tuned to the heart of God through both the tragic and triumphant seasons of life. As we dive into the Psalms of David while also following the narrative of his life, we gain insight into both the internal and external world of the believer. As believers, God is forming us into the image of Christ for His glory and our sanctification.  

Creative Direction

1920’s Clue Whodunit

Every heart tells a story. This summer, you are invited to be a guest at Hart’s Manor, the residence of the mayor, Davey Hart. On this specific night, we welcome you to join the party at the Manor, but look closely, because this story might not be what you expect. A death has occurred, secrets will come to light, and every guest is now a suspect. What begins as a murder mystery quickly becomes something deeper; a story about identity, brokenness, grace, and redemption. Spoiler alert, this isn’t really about solving a crime. It’s about discovering the condition of the heart. So please, join us this summer, because at Hart’s Manor every heart will be up for questioning. Will you solve the mystery or be left wondering, WHODUNIT? 

Super Spirit Day
