Hey Central Young Adults!

Last week (Feb 24) we decided to postpone the 2nd week of Asking for a Friend, so this coming Tuesday (March 3), we will tackle the very casual topic “Is God hiding my spouse from me…or do I just suck at dating?”

If you’re single, dating, situationshipping, recovering from a breakup, or just tired of pretending you have it all figured out — this night is for you.

No shame. No weird church answers. Just honest conversation about what it looks like to follow Jesus in the middle of modern dating. See you at 7pm at Connors Hil.

Questions? Talk to Graydon!

Hey Central Young Adults!

On Tuesday, Feb 17th, we’re kicking off a brand new Young Adults series called Asking for a Friend — a series all about asking (and answering) the awkward, honest, and sometimes uncomfortable questions we all have about dating, sex, marriage, and relationships… but are usually too afraid to say out loud.

Our first topic is a big one:

“Is God hiding my spouse from me… or am I just bad at dating?”

If you’ve ever wondered that (or know someone who has 👀), this night is for you.

On February 24th, we’ll wrap the series with a Relationships Panel, responding to questions submitted by YOU. You can submit your questions anytime through our anonymous Google Form HERE.

If you’ve ever Googled something at midnight or thought, “Can I ask that at church?”—this is your moment.

Hey Central Young Adults! Join us on January 20th at Connors Hill as we explore a new series…

“How to Wreck Everything You Love” is a raw, no-filter journey into what happens when you take Jesus’ Beatitudes and intentionally live the opposite of them. This series exposes the slow, subtle habits that sabotage your relationships, corrode your heart, and quietly dismantle your community—pride instead of humility, bitterness instead of mercy, chaos instead of peace. It’s uncomfortable on purpose. We’re naming the attitudes that destroy us so we can finally see why Jesus’ way isn’t just good advice—it’s the only path that doesn’t end in ruins.
