Surge is an annual statewide collegiate retreat that serves as a catalyst for spiritual growth and a support to discipleship in the local church. At Surge, we accomplish this through the preaching of God’s word, worship, small group discussions, and connecting students to authentic community.

This year, the theme for Surge is Jesus is Better. Scripture teaches that Jesus is greater than everything. But sometimes, the word “everything” loses its meaning and we forget just how great Jesus is. Come dive into the book of Hebrews with us as we explore just how much better Jesus is. Dr. Brian Arnold, the president of Phoenix Seminary, will be our speaker.

Surge will be online this year, but our campus will be hosting a watch party both Friday and Saturday with games and some food provided. Meet us in the Christian Challenge building for a great weekend!
