  • "No Room for Idols" | Brian Lindsey | Premier Winterfest 2026
    Feb 24 2026

    Brian Lindsey walks through the story of King Josiah in 2 Kings 22 to confront a struggle many believers quietly live with. It is not that we reject Jesus. It is that we try to follow Him while holding on to everything else. Josiah was born into a culture where worship of God existed alongside idols. The temple still stood. Sacrifices were still made. But false gods had been given space inside the very place meant for the presence of God. In the same way, many of us live with Jesus in our lives while allowing other things like culture, sexuality, comfort, and addiction to share the same space in our hearts. Everything begins to change when the Book of the Law is discovered during the renovation of the temple. Before idols were destroyed in the nation, something first broke in Josiah. It was not behavior modification that brought reform. It was a word from the Lord that changed him from the inside out. This message is a call to stop trying to mimic Jesus from a distance and start following Him with a surrendered heart. True transformation does not come from trying harder. It comes when God speaks and something finally breaks. Because before Josiah ever tore down an idol, he first encountered the Word.

  • "What's Your Issue?" | Markus McFolling | Premier Winterfest 2026
    Feb 21 2026

    Markus McFolling calls a generation to stop living around Jesus and start reaching for Him. Opening in Luke 8, he highlights a simple but piercing truth: family in the Kingdom is not built on familiarity or Bible knowledge alone, but on hearing God’s Word and doing it.


    Then he turns to the woman with the issue of blood and reframes the story for everyone in the room. Issues are not always visible, but they are real, and they don’t get healed through self-help, hustle, or hiding. After 12 years of isolation and disappointment, her faith finally breaks through the crowd. One touch. One moment. Immediate healing.


    Markus challenges students to stop letting labels define them. Jesus does not call her “unclean” or “the woman with the issue.” He calls her “daughter.” The encounter doesn’t just restore her body, it restores her identity.


    With raw honesty about anxiety, panic, pain, and the fight for freedom, Markus invites anyone carrying heaviness, depression, suicidal thoughts, or secret struggles to step out of the crowd and into an encounter with Jesus. Tonight is a call to get hungry again, trust God’s Word, and refuse to stay stuck in what has been bleeding you dry.

  • "Be the Answer" | Javaris Wright | Northeast Winterfest 2026
    Feb 16 2026

    Javaris Wright challenges a generation to stop waiting on someone else and become the answer God is raising up in this hour. Anchoring the moment in 2 Kings 23:25, he points to King Josiah and the power of one surrendered life in the middle of a collapsing culture.


    Judah did not fall overnight. Years of compromise, idols, and spiritual confusion stacked up under Manasseh and Ammon, but God responded by raising up an unlikely leader. Josiah was only eight, surrounded by darkness, yet he chose the Lord with all his heart, soul, and strength. God did not overlook the problem and God did not overlook the person. God saw. God chose. God sent.


    Javaris calls students to tear down the idols that keep revival at a distance. Lust. Pornography. Premarital sex. Hidden compromise. He reminds the room that the Holy Spirit is not only power to worship, but power to live right. The same God who transforms a nation can transform a home, a school, and a future.


    With personal testimony and a clear invitation to respond, he urges every student to move beyond emotional moments and step into real transformation. This is a call to be marked, to live holy, and to carry what God did here back into everyday life.
