Unstuck: Moving Forward With God

Moving Forward with God
A One-Night Spiritual Growth Workshop
Have you ever felt stuck spiritually?
Maybe you’re exploring Christianity and wondering what it actually looks like to begin a real relationship with God. Or maybe you’ve been following Jesus for years — and if you’re honest, you feel tired, dry, or stalled out.
Unstuck is a 90-minute workshop designed to help you take a clear next step. We’ll talk honestly about why we get stuck, what growth with God actually looks like, and how to move forward — whether you’re just starting out or starting again.
Come hungry. Leave moving forward.
New City Membership Class
If you’ve been attending New City and wondering what your next step might be, our Membership Class is a great place to start. You’ll hear the story of how God began this church, meet our leaders, unpack what we believe, and discover how you can meaningfully engage right now. More than a class, it’s an invitation to belong—to step into the life of this church and take ownership of the mission God has entrusted to us. If you’re ready to move from attending to investing, we’d love to have you join us.
