RESTLESS WANDERER: PURSUING CHRIST WHEN SURROUNDED BY DESIRES (GUYS ONLY)
Globe Theater #132
Tyler Myers & Ethan Rauch
Cain was cursed to be a “Restless Wanderer,” and while that seems extreme, we find ourselves taking on the same curse today—restlessly wandering, hoping that thing after thing will bring peace, fulfillment, and purpose. Desires seem to rule our world, but what does it look like for our desire to be Christ? What happens when we come to the end of what the world can offer and realize that what we were searching for all along was a real, intimate, soul-deep relationship with Christ? From that relationship, we can receive rest and purpose, and put aside our curse of “restless wandering.”

In this session, we’ll dive into what it really means to live as the light of the world, just like Jesus described in Matthew 5:14. Through real talk, practical tools, and honest conversations, we’ll explore how to live boldly, love deeply, and lead faithfully—even when the world around you feels dark. This is your time to shine.

MAKING DISCIPLES OF ALL________
Bedford #133 D
Jared Stewart
Led by The Video Game Pastor, this dynamic power track challenges and equips believers to step boldly into their unique mission fields. For some, it’s gamers.

Through practical tools, inspiring stories, and a heart for the Great Commission, attendees will be invited to fill in the blank — and faithfully live it out.
DISCOVERING GODS WILL
Henry West #143
Tony Livigni
Decisions, decisions. When you have multiple options in front of you, how can you be sure you are following God? In fact, in our day and age, we have more options than ever before—the process can be exhausting! So, what’s the best path to take? In this Power Track, we will explore how to find and know God’s will in our decisions.
BIBLICAL CREATION AND MODERN SCIENCE

Aliens...Big bang...Climate change...Evolution? Science guys Don DeYoung and Nate Bosch will answer the top ten questions about our created world. The topics will show how the Bible provides answers to today's science issues.
UNFILTERED FAITH: ASKING WHAT REALLY MATTERS
PPAC Aud #140
Haley Elson, Zac Hess, Scott Feather, Jordan Gillette
Let’s be real—faith comes with questions. Big ones. Awkward ones. The kind you’re not sure you’re allowed to ask. In this breakout, we’re clearing the air and creating space for honest conversation. No judgment. No clichés. Just real pastors and ministry leaders tackling the questions students are actually asking—about God, life, faith, and everything in between. Come with your doubts, your curiosity, or just your “asking for a friend” moments. It’s time to talk about what really matters.
USING SPORTS TO SHARE CHRIST
PPAC #135
Ryan Burgher
AGAITAS uses sports as a powerful tool to share the love of Christ. In this class, we’ll explore how the ministry started with one simple camp, grew to over 20 camps across two countries, and how you can launch something similar in your own school or community. We’ll also dive into our High School Leadership program and how it’s making a lasting impact at Warsaw Community High School—both within our teams and the ones we compete against. Come be inspired to lead, serve, and make a difference through sports
YOU ALREADY BELONG
PPAC #133
Jacob Troughton
So many of us are living under pressure — to perform, to fit in, to prove we matter. Whether it’s in sports, school, popularity, or image, it feels like we’re constantly fighting for belonging. But the truth is, if you are in Christ, you already belong — fully, freely, and forever. In this Power Track, we’ll break the lies of striving and shame, and discover the freedom of being part of God’s family — not because of what we do, but because of who He says we are.
PERFECTION? PERFORMANCE? PURPOSE!
Choir Room #160
Cody Ray
What does it mean to be right with God, and how do we actually live like it? In this Power Track, we’re going to unpack three powerful biblical concepts—Righteousness, Justification, and Holiness—and how they define who we are. We’ll explore how the Gospel frees us from the pressures of perfection and empowers us to live with purpose. Let’s discover how Jesus’ work makes us right with God, shapes how we live, and sets us apart to reflect Him.
DISCOVERING YOUR TRUE IDENTITY IN JESUS
Recital Hall #141
Todd Shoemaker & William Scavuzzo
In a world full of labels and expectations, it’s easy to feel lost or unsure of who you really are. This Power Track will explore what it means to find your identity in Jesus—how His love defines you, not your past, your social status, or what others say. Through real talk, Scripture, and practical reflection, you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of who God says you are. Come ready to be encouraged, challenged, and reminded that you are already fully known and deeply loved.
COMPARISON: HOW SOCIAL MEDIA CAN STEAL YOUR JOY
Black Box Theater #170
Nick Mazza
It has been said, "Comparison is the thief of joy." Social media has the potential to create spaces where we compare our lives to the lives of others. But we all know social media is not reality. Instead, our lives should be focused on truth: the truth of the Bible, the truth of who God is, and the truth of who we are in Christ!
LIVING AND ACTIVE: WHY WE NEED THE WORD OF GOD
PPAC #137
Trey Storr
Is the Bible really important? Nearly every Christian would affirm that it is, but we often struggle to read it and apply it to our daily lives. Trey Storr will share his testimony of how Scripture changed his path from pursuing a career in baseball to full-time ministry. Through this, we hope to motivate students to read their Bibles and equip them with tools for understanding and applying it.

Burns Hall Porter Auditorium #130
