Mon, 08 Apr 2024 15:54:23 +0000 Kinetic Worship http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/64687 This Spring 2024 semester, the theme for Kinetic Worship is “Jesus is _____.” We are going to dive into Jesus’ “I am” statements and explore Him as King, High Priest, Messiah, etc. Ultimately, we want to understand more about Christ’s authority, kingship and priesthood in our lives and the riches we have available to us in Him because of our new identity as redeemed sons and daughters of God. We will be taking a Jesus-centered journey through scripture, and our hope is that the Lord will ignite a fiery passion in the hearts of everyone on the Andrews University campus (and online) so that people can experience Jesus, the Gospel and radical transformation of heart. We hope that you will see and hear scripture like you’ve never seen or heard it before! It is our prayer that through dynamic worship, powerful Christ-centered messages and loving fellowship, people will leave with faith on fire for Jesus because hope has been restored and they are able to see a clearer picture of who Jesus is and who they are in Him.  Thu, 04 Apr 2024 13:40:29 +0000 Motion is Medicine 5k Fun Run/Walk Charity Event http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/64837 Bring your friends and family to Andrews University's third annual 5k Charity Fun Run/Walk!
