Convos is an app created by Christ in Youth to help small groups have meaningful in-person conversations. Rather than having one person lead the conversation from list of questions, Convos gets the entire group engaged through games, videos, polls, and open-ended questions. By passing the device around, everyone in the group gets a chance to lead and participate in the conversation, resulting in more engagement, better comprehension, and lasting memories.
Horizon CC

- Two distinct service styles
- Topical themes for new believers
- Verse-by-verse biblical teaching
- Participatory worship music
- Prayer and reflection times
- Community spiritual journey support

At Horizon, we recognize that a spiritual journey is personal and unique. The unifying goal is that all will grow into a deeper understanding and closer relationship with God. For that reason, we offer two different services distinctly shaped to reflect Horizon’s key values: Exploring and Equipping. The Exploring Service is designed for those who are recently returning to faith, new to faith or just beginning to investigate Christianity. The Exploring Service offers topical themes and spiritual questions relevant to everyday life. Down-to-earth teaching, upbeat music, and creative media help the audience wrestle with topics relevant to everyday life like parenting & relationships, world philosophies, decision making, ethics in the workplace, and the search for significance. Exploring Services are held on Sunday at 10 a.m. & 11:10 a.m. The Equipping Service is designed for those who are maturing in their faith, featuring participatory worship music, times of prayer and reflection, monthly communion, and expository verse-by-verse teaching focused on specific books of the Bible. Equipping Services are held on Saturday at 4:30 a.m. and Sunday at 8:50 a.m.
