Dave & Christy McHugh & Sarah Hudson — This week Dave, Christy and Sarah wrap up our series with a look back over the series, sharing what has challenged them and also looking forward to the focus of our series for next term.

Dave & Christy McHugh & Sarah Hudson — In a world that promotes freedom and liberty, we are captive in a modern-day Egypt. The Prince of the Air writes a cultural script that presents an illusion of liberty—yet ultimately leads to enslavement. Throughout this series, we will attempt to unveil the illusion of liberty that culture promotes and explore the antidote that the ways of Jesus offer. As we unmask that which is enslaving us, may we journey from captivity to freedom.

Unveiled

Our heart is to raise up resilient disciples of Jesus who are committed to living as a community who carry His heart, and are a resting place for His presence. Uprising Youth is a community that rises, rises when things get hard, rises against injustice, rises against the world's standards, rises in leadership - we are called to rise higher than the world’s standards! The name ‘Uprising’ comes from a prophetic word from Dave Wagner in 2015 that states our Stairway youth will be a people that are set apart from the world that will pursue holiness, walk in righteousness, and be a witness to the great things God is doing in the world. Our focus is to help equip our young people to walk in their calling. Another prophetic word we have received over our youth is ‘If you want to see what God is doing, watch the young people’ so our goal is to create a space where they can encounter the love of God, and learn to be able to activate their faith in their everyday lives!
