God’s greatest gift to you is His presence. God is love. God is light. God is a consuming fire. The Bonfire is a place for gathering, celebrating, and refining. The Bonfire is a place for community. The Bonfire is a place to experience Jesus and learn to abide with Him. God will meet you right where you are. He brings embers together and builds a bonfire.

You Have Talents

Walk-in Wisdom

Giving Up Control
Trusting Jesus isn’t always easy, but it’s in those moments of surrender, when we stop trying to run the show ourselves, that real freedom and growth begin. When we let go, just like Abraham, Moses, Paul, and even Jesus did, we make space for God to...

The Wind of the Spirit
Jesus describes the Holy Spirit like the wind—moving freely, powerfully, and beyond our control—reminding us that new life comes not from status or religion but from surrender. When we yield to the Spirit, the same power that transformed the Samaritan...

A Public Faith
Living out our faith means walking with Jesus in the quiet places and standing for Him when the world would rather we stay silent. When we look at Scripture, we see ordinary people like Moses and Bartimaeus who had every reason to shrink back, yet God...

Jesus is Mighty in Battle
