Events & Announcements


In John 14:27, Jesus says, “Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” Jesus doesn’t say we won’t have trouble; He says we don’t have to let ourselves be troubled. When we have God on our side, we can live securely. We can experience peace. God’s peace is available to all of us; we just have to humble ourselves and allow Him to run our daily lives. We weren’t designed to carry the weight of the world, but God can.

Challenges from Chapel

We continue to give God praise and thanks for the amazing ways He is working in our school! This past Thursday in both of our chapel environments, worship was powerful and the teaching was clear and convicting. Many thanks to Mr. Tim Hurt and our student-led chapel worship team for leading us so faithfully all year long. In senior chapel, our students were blessed to hear from TCS high school science teacher Tommy Stell. Mr. Stell is loved by our students, and he shared a powerful message about God breaking down strongholds in our lives. Sharing the story of King Josiah from the Old Testament, Mr. Stell challenged our students to surrender themselves fully to God, allowing Him to break down strongholds that affect their identity, their behavior, and their future. May God have His will and way in their lives as they prepare for the next chapter.

In our underclassmen chapel, Luke Troyanek from ONE Church in Fayetteville challenged our students to know Jesus personally and be fully connected to Him. Sharing from the story of Jesus washing the disciples’ feet in John 13, Luke reminded us that through our relationship with Jesus, we are cleansed, restored, and renewed to do the work He has given us to do. We thank God for speaking through the power of the Holy Spirit in both of these messages. Let us all be reminded to always be and remain in Christ, for apart from Him we can do nothing!
