New! Secret Church Returns May 2 & 3 With "Who Is God?"
Join us on May 2 &3, from 6:00 p.m. until Midnight at Brook Hills for a powerful night of Bible study unlike anything you have experienced. Dr. David Platt leads an intense, 6-hour study on “Who Is God?”. This in-depth time will help you understand the nature and purposes of the God we worship--and how your understanding of God deeply affects not only how you worship Him, but how you live every day. You will be encouraged and inspired to dive into the Word more than ever before after this night of Secret Church.

This is the fourth series, and God is using this powerful time of study to enrich our knowledge of His Word even as we gain understanding of the state of His Church and the persecuted in our world. Do not come to Secret Church if all you want to do is learn for yourself--the objective is for you to pass along what you learn to others, so that you can be a disciple-maker for Christ, both locally and globally.

New! Tickets Required For Secret Church May 2 & 3

$3.00 Per Person--Purchase Online or at The Church at Brook Hills
Please note this important new information: Because of the tremendous popularity of Secret Church, we must make an effort to offset some of the expense involved. While the concept is still a simple and straightforward night of intense Bible study--it simply costs quite a bit to facilitate the study for more than 2,000 people! This time around you'll need to purchase a ticket to attend for $3.00 a person. This is to cover the cost of producing the study guide materials.

Tickets can be purchased online or through Connection Central in the lobby. Remember to bring your online confirmation ticket and present it as your ticket for entrance. If you purchase your ticket online and forget to bring it, stop by the Will Call Desk at least 30 minutes prior to the study. Due to limited seating we encourage you to register as soon as possible.

Water and snacks will be available on the evening of Secret Church for a nominal charge.
