May 26-28: Student Collective: Overflow - First Light
WHAT IS OVERFLOW?
ONE WEEKEND | THREE LOCATIONS
Overflow is a large Christian event for students from across denominations. The event exists to impact this generation with the powerful message of Jesus through creative worship and biblical teaching. Our recommended age range for the event is 12-24, however, the general sessions are mainly geared towards high school-aged students.
THEME: FIRST LIGHT
1 JOHN 2:8 “Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and in you because the darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.”
Darkness is something we all go through. The challenges and battles that we face often tempt us to feel like we need to “hunker down” or “hold tight.” Like the dawn of a new day, the FIRST LIGHT, our hope is found knowing that this darkness is passing, and we can trust the Light that is already shining. It is time to move forward, to launch into the future as we glimpse the First Light that is Jesus.
