Seattle Seahawks defensive end Mike Morris says his Christian faith is the foundation of both his life and football career. After realizing he had been praying mainly for success, he experienced a turning point when he felt God ask if he would still worship Him even when things didn't go his way. That shift helped him stay grounded through injuries and coaching changes, and today he serves as a Seahawks chapel assistant, encouraging teammates in their faith alongside the team's chaplain.

Workshop #1
How to Jumpstart Your Bible Reading
Offered Friday Evening and Saturday Morning Workshop # 1
Workshop Description: Do you feel like you "should" read the Bible more? You "should" know it better? You "should" talk about it more with your friends and family? Let’s look at how to move from “should” to “want” when it comes to reading the Bible. It has to do with our mindset and our method.

Workshop #2:
How to REMEMBER What You Read in the Bible.
Offered Saturday Morning Workshop # 2
Workshop Description: For most of us – if we’re honest – remembering what we read in the Bible is difficult. And yet, it is so important! Let’s look at the benefits of Scripture Internalization, how it’s different from simply “memorizing.” We'll explore how we can do it in a way that is more long-lasting (and way simpler) than we ever thought possible.

Workshop:
R.E.A.L. Men Fight!
Workshop Description: Satan uses lies to keep men trapped in spiritual, emotional, and relational defeat—and when a man lives in defeat, the people around him are impacted. But we don’t have to buy the lie. God calls us to freedom, equips us with His truth, and promises to stand with us in the fight. In this workshop, we’ll explore practical battle strategies from God’s Word to recognize the enemy’s lies, stand firm in truth, and walk in freedom. Together, we’ll lock arms as disciples of Jesus and learn what it means to fight the battles that matter most.

Workshop:
Discipled to Disciple: Every Man Needs a Paul, a Barnabas, and a Timothy
Every man needs a Paul, someone who helps him grow; a Barnabas, a brother who walks beside and encourages him; and a Timothy, someone in whom he can invest. Using 2 Timothy 3:14–17, John 5:19, and Ephesians 2:10, we’ll explore how God uses His Word and relationships with other men to equip us for the good works He has prepared. This session will challenge men to consider who is helping them follow Jesus, who is walking alongside them, and whom God may be inviting them to disciple. Including these relationships in your life will help you recognize and boldly walk into the good works God has prepared for you.
Plus, workshops led by each of these speakers!
