Climb Higher in Your Christian Life!
Is your Christian life superficial or supernatural? Are you ready to grow into a more satisfying, fruitful walk with Jesus? If you are new in the Christian faith, or if you want to grow in the consistency and impact of your life, The Ascent is the way to go.
The Ascent is an intentional spiritual environment designed to train Christians to become fully-formed followers of Christ in knowledge (head), affections and motives (heart), and lifestyle and behavior (hands) - using a combination of classroom and small group Bible study, individual and peer coaching, and obedience-based assignments.
