This Series Faith Guide

Verse for the series: "WAKE UP!
“Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.” —

Ephesians 5:14 (NLT)

4 Practical Steps Both Campuses Should Pray Over and Consider

Recommit to the Core Practices
Every person and every family is invited to name and pursue their “one.” We will simplify the pathway so that identifying, praying for, and inviting one person becomes normal rather than exceptional, while praying specifically for the next generation.
Accelerate the ONE Church Integration
The merger is not a side project; it is central to our Wake Up Initiative in 2027. We will continue clear communication while remaining open to all concerns and questions. At the same time, we will shape and finish the governance, staffing, and ministry alignment steps so we function as one body with two campuses. Our mission is not to take over from either side—the mission is expanded outreach, fulfilling the Great Commission on both sides of the mountain. One church, two locations. One Family. One Mission.
Focused Next-Generation Investment
Concentrate resources and leadership energy on students, young adults, and young families in both communities.
Clear Metrics and Accountability
Track clear metrics (attendance, returning guests, baptisms, Rooted engagement, and active “ones”) with regular honest review. We will release a ONE Kingdom Impact Report at the end of each semester with these metrics for the church to review and pray over.

Wake Up Initiative Dates
January 1, 2027 – December 31, 2027.

Sermon Series: Battle—Ready: Armor of God
Scripture: Ephesians 6 NLT
What to Expect: Battle Ready is about living in that tension—already victorious in Christ, not yet finished with the fight. We will open Ephesians 6 and learn how to stand: truth around the waist, righteousness on the chest, the gospel on your feet, faith as a shield, salvation as a helmet, and the Word as a sword. This is not hype. This is not fear. This is a church refusing to sit in the stands while the enemy comes after the people we love. Get in the game. Get your armor on. Get Battle Ready.

This Series Faith Guide

Verse for the series: "A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:10–12 (NLT)

Life Application from current series:

Identify where you’re vulnerable. Ask God to reveal the places where you have left yourself spiritually exposed—your thought life, relationships, habits, bitterness, fear, or hidden sin. You cannot guard an area of your life that you refuse to acknowledge.
Make prayer your first response, not your last resort. Stop treating prayer as something you turn to only after everything else has failed. Stay connected to God throughout the day, asking the Holy Spirit for strength, wisdom, and awareness in the battles you are facing.
Stop treating people like the enemy. Your spouse, coworker, family member, political opponent, or difficult person is not ultimately who you are fighting. Choose to respond with grace and truth, remembering that our battle is not against flesh and blood.
Fight from victory, not for victory. You do not have to defeat an enemy Jesus has already defeated; your responsibility is to stand firm in what Christ has accomplished. When accusation, temptation, or fear comes, remind yourself of what is true about Jesus, what He has done, and who you are because you belong to Him.

IMMEDIATE NEED:

Trunk or Treat is this weekend at both Ringgold and GC3 Frederick, and right now we only have 5 trunks registered at Ringgold and 3 at Frederick.

This is one of our biggest outreach nights of the year. Families from our communities will be walking through our lots, and every decorated trunk is a chance to show the light of Jesus in a season that often leans pretty dark. Kids get candy and a fun experience. Parents get a warm welcome. And we get to be present and kind in the middle of it all.

We need more hosts. Decorating a trunk and handing out candy is simple, doesn’t take long, and makes a real difference.

Please register today so we can plan well:

Ringgold Location: CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
Frederick (GC3) Location: CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

If you’ve already signed up — thank you! If you haven’t yet, can you jump in? Even one more trunk at each campus helps.

Let’s fill both lots with light this weekend.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

We may not know what God will do through one conversation, one invitation, or one act of kindness. Our part is simply to obey Him with the opportunity in front of us and trust Him with what happens next.

One person.
Who is one person God has already placed around you? This may not be a stranger. It may be someone you see every week—a neighbor, coworker, family member, or friend. You already know something about their story. You may already know where they are hurting or what questions they are asking. Write down their name. Pray for them this week, and ask God to help you recognize the opportunity to listen, care, and speak about Jesus.
One step.
What is one thing you can do to move toward that person? Maybe it is sending a text, sharing a meal, inviting them to church, or simply making time to listen. We do not need a perfect plan. We need to obey God in the next thing He is asking us to do.
One message.
How will you clearly tell them about Jesus? Do not merely invite them to attend something.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:19 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

One person.
Who is one person God has already placed around you? This may not be a stranger. It may be someone you see every week—a neighbor, coworker, family member, or friend. You already know something about their story. You may already know where they are hurting or what questions they are asking. Write down their name. Pray for them this week, and ask God to help you recognize the opportunity to listen, care, and speak about Jesus.
One step.
What is one thing you can do to move toward that person? Maybe it is sending a text, sharing a meal, inviting them to church, or simply making time to listen. We do not need a perfect plan. We need to obey God in the next thing He is asking us to do.
One message.
How will you clearly tell them about Jesus? Do not merely invite them to attend something.

This Month’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Month: "Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, 'My child, your sins are forgiven.'" Mark 2:5 (NLT)

Life Application from the Month:

1. Write down three names of people God has placed around you—neighbors,coworkers, family members, or friends—who need an invitation or needsomeone to help them take a step closer to Jesus. Don’t leave this vague. Putreal names on paper. Seeing the names makes the next steps more concreteand keeps us from staying in general intentions. That’s THREE names thatshould be added to the WHO IS YOUR ONE? Display case in the lobby!2. Pray for those three people every day this week. Ask God to work in theirheart and yours—to open the right door and give you humility, courage, and theright words. Prayer is the first step of going beyond. We are not trying tomanufacture something in our own strength. We are asking God to go before us.3. Extend one clear, specific invitation this week. Not “you should comesometime.” Something like, “We’re going this Sunday. I’d love to save you a seatand sit with you.” Make it as easy as possible for them to say yes. Specificinvitations remove unnecessary barriers and communicate that we actually wantthem with us.4. Take one step toward being more planted—join a Connect Group, startserving, begin giving, or open God’s Word more consistently—so that goingbeyond becomes part of who you are. The more rooted we become, the morenaturally this starts to flow. Deep roots produce lasting fruit. Going beyond issustained by the same roots that keep us close to Jesus.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them." Romans 8:28 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

Find your purpose in Christ.
Don't let your identity be determined by your circumstances. Let Jesus become your "why," and allow every decision you make to bring Him glory.
Don't suffer alone.
Grief and depression grow in isolation, but healing often begins in community. Let God use trusted believers to encourage, pray for, and walk alongside you.
Look for God's collateral beauty.
Even when life is painful, God is still at work. Ask Him to open your eyes to the unexpected ways His grace, love, and hope are breaking through.
Trust that God is writing a greater story.
Your pain may not make sense today, but it is never wasted in God's hands. Keep trusting Him, because He is able to bring beauty, purpose, and hope out of even the darkest seasons

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 NLT

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

Acknowledge your emotions, but don't let them lead your life. Bring every feeling to God and allow His truth—not your emotions—to determine your next step.
Challenge the lies anxiety tells you. When anxious thoughts arise, compare them to Scripture and choose to believe what God says about your identity.
Replace worry with prayer. Every time anxiety surfaces this week, pause and pray instead of replaying worst-case scenarios in your mind.
Remember that your emotions influence you, but they don't define you. Your identity is found in Christ, not in your fears, failures, or feelings.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago." Ephesians 2:10 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

Examine your foundation — This week, quietly ask yourself: “What am I really building my life on?” Success? Approval? Money? Control? Or Christ?
Confess where sin has distorted your building — Bring any area of pretending, cutting corners, or self-reliance to God. Ask Him to forgive and realign it.
Build daily on Christ — Start (or restart) the habit of reading God’s Word and praying every day. These are the “daily blocks” that strengthen your foundation.
Live with eternity in mind — Make one decision this week that has eternal value — investing in your marriage, discipling your kids, serving someone, sharing your faith.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place... Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this?" Esther 4:14 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

1. Pursue Truth with Wisdom

Knowing what is right is only part of following Christ; we must also pursue what is right with humility, grace, and wisdom. Before reacting, speaking, or posting, ask whether your words reflect the heart of Jesus and move people closer to Him rather than further away.

2. Embrace God's Purpose for This Season

God intentionally placed you in this generation, this community, and this moment of history. Instead of wishing for easier circumstances, trust that He has equipped you to faithfully serve Him right where you are today.

3. Live in the Freedom Christ Purchased

Jesus paid the ultimate price so that we could live in true freedom—not only forgiven but transformed. Ask God to reveal any areas where fear, sin, bitterness, or shame still hold you captive, and choose to walk daily in the freedom He has already secured for you.

4. Don't Delay Your Obedience

Faithfulness often begins with one courageous step of obedience. Whatever God has been prompting you to do—whether it's forgiving someone, serving others, sharing your faith, or surrendering an area of your life—don't wait for a more convenient time, because God has called you for such a time as this.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

1. Remember What God Has Done

Take time this week to intentionally reflect on God's faithfulness in your life, family, church, and nation. Gratitude grows when we remember, and remembering God's past faithfulness strengthens our trust in His future provision.

2. Put Your Hope in the Gospel, Not Systems

It's easy to believe that political leaders, laws, or cultural changes will solve our deepest problems, but Scripture reminds us that only Christ transforms hearts. Ask yourself where your confidence is truly placed and recommit to being part of God's work of changing lives through the Gospel.

3. Practice Daily Gratitude

Romans 1 shows that spiritual drift often begins when people stop thanking God. Develop a habit of naming specific blessings each day, allowing gratitude to guard your heart from cynicism, pride, and discouragement.

4. Start Revival With Yourself

2 Chronicles 7:14 places responsibility for renewal on God's people first. Rather than focusing on everything that needs to change around you, spend time humbling yourself before God through prayer, repentance, and seeking His presence.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: “Don’t be afraid of the enemy! Remember the Lord, who is great and glorious, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes!” – Nehemiah 4:14 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

Evaluate What Has First Place in Your Heart
Take an honest inventory of what currently receives your greatest affection, attention, and energy. If God is not truly at the center of your life, ask Him to realign your priorities so that your family sees a faith that is lived, not just spoken.
Disciple Through Everyday Moments
Choose one daily rhythm this week—car rides, dinner conversations, bedtime, or mornings—and intentionally bring Jesus into it. Don't wait for perfect conditions or theological expertise; use ordinary moments to talk about God's truth and point your family toward Him.
Model the Faith You Want to Multiply
Remember that the people closest to you are learning more from your example than your instructions. Let your response to stress, your commitment to prayer, your love for Scripture, and your dependence on Christ become a visible testimony that others can follow.
Start Fighting for Your Family Today
If you feel like you've failed or fallen behind, don't allow guilt to keep you stuck. Take one intentional step this week—pray together, apologize where needed, read Scripture as a family, or begin a spiritual conversation—trusting that God specializes in redeeming what feels lost and restoring what feels broken.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts; let them proclaim your power." – Psalm 145:4 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

1. Tell your God stories.
This week, intentionally share one story of God's faithfulness with a child, student, grandchild, friend, or family member. The next generation doesn't just need Bible stories—they need to hear how God has shown up in your life and why your faith is real.

2. Reflect the heart of God.
Think about the way you speak about faith, church, and Jesus. Make sure the people around you experience the compassion, grace, and love of Christ through your words, your attitude, and your actions—not just your opinions.

3. Choose joy on purpose.
The next generation is watching how we worship, serve, and handle difficult seasons. Let your life become evidence that following Jesus is not merely a duty to endure, but a relationship that brings hope, purpose, and lasting joy.

4. Take one step toward investing in the next generation.
Whether it's serving in Kids Ministry, encouraging a student, mentoring a young adult, praying for families, or simply learning a child's name, everyone has a role to play. We don't pass faith to the next generation by accident—we pass it on through intentional relationships and consistent presence.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ." Ephesians 5:21 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

1. Surrender Your Marriage to God's Design

Take an honest look at the areas where you may be following your own preferences instead of God's Word. This week, identify one aspect of your relationship—communication, forgiveness, purity, priorities, or commitment—and intentionally align it with God's design.

2. Depend Daily on the Holy Spirit

A resilient marriage cannot be sustained by human effort alone. Make it a daily habit to spend time in prayer and Scripture, asking God to fill you with His Spirit so you can love, serve, and respond to your spouse with Christlike grace.

3. Pursue Your Spouse's Spiritual Growth

Shift your focus from asking, "How can my spouse make me happier?" to "How can I help my spouse become more like Jesus?" Look for practical ways to encourage, pray for, and support their spiritual growth as you pursue God's mission together.

4. Choose Grace and Forgiveness

Every marriage will experience disappointment, conflict, and failure. Instead of keeping score or holding onto bitterness, choose to extend the same grace that Christ has shown you, demonstrating the power of the Gospel through forgiveness and reconciliation.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: “Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.” Romans 12:4–5 (NLT)

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

Your identity in Christ should shape how you live every day.
The world constantly pushes people toward pride, comparison, insecurity, or performance, but the Gospel calls you to see yourself accurately through Jesus. When you remember both your need for grace and your worth in Christ, you can walk with humility, confidence, and purpose instead of fear or self-reliance.
Spiritual growth was never meant to happen alone.
God designed the church as a body where every person matters and every role has purpose. Real healing, encouragement, accountability, and discipleship happen when believers stay connected, serve together, and walk through life side by side instead of isolating themselves.
God has given you gifts that are meant to serve others, not just yourself.
Every believer has been uniquely equipped by God to make an impact in the lives of people around them. Whether your gift is serving, encouraging, leading, teaching, giving, or showing kindness, God calls you to discover it, develop it, and actively use it for His Kingdom.
Following Jesus means actively engaging in the mission, not just attending church.
The church is not a place to consume—it is a place to contribute. When you come prepared, build relationships, serve faithfully, give generously, and live on mission in everyday life, you become part of how God brings healing and hope to broken lives.

This Week’s Faith Guide

Verse of the Week: "Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people.” Colossians 3:23 NLT

Life Application from Sunday's Message:

Your workplace is one of the biggest mission fields God has given you. You may never stand on a church stage or preach a sermon, but your attitude, integrity, and consistency preach every single day. The way you show up, treat people, and handle responsibility can either clear the way to Jesus or clutter it. This week, ask yourself: “Would my coworkers see something different about Christ because of the way I work?”
Excellence honors God even when nobody notices. It’s easy to work hard when a boss is watching or when recognition is coming, but true character shows up in the unseen moments. God cares about faithfulness in the ordinary things — arriving on time, following through, and doing your best even in frustrating or repetitive tasks. This week, choose to serve with excellence not for applause, but because you ultimately serve Christ.
Sincerity at work reflects spiritual maturity. Refusing gossip, owning mistakes, speaking honestly, and treating others with respect are not small things — they are powerful acts of witness. In a culture filled with complaining and blame-shifting, a sincere and trustworthy believer stands out immediately. Ask God this week to help you become known not just as a good worker, but as a trustworthy and grace-filled person.
Changing your perspective can completely change your experience at work. When work is only about a paycheck, frustration quickly takes over, but when you realize you are working “as unto the Lord,” even ordinary tasks gain eternal meaning. God can use your current job — even the difficult or temporary one — as a place to shape your character and impact others. Every shift, meeting, task, and interaction becomes an opportunity to worship God through faithfulness.
