Young Adults Retreat
October 30–November 1 | Lost Canyon Camp – Williams, AZ
Cost: $225
You weren’t made to spend your life just getting by. Between work, relationships, expectations, anxiety, disappointment, and the pressure to have it all figured out, it’s easy to settle for simply surviving. But Jesus offers something more: a life marked by freedom, purpose, and abundance.
Join other young adults ages 18–33 for a weekend away to slow down, go deeper, and explore what it looks like to actually live free in Christ. Through biblical teaching, prayer, honest conversations, and time together, you’ll discover practical ways to recognize what’s holding you back, replace lies with truth, and pursue the freedom Jesus offers.

Prepare for Marriage
Give your marriage the best beginning.
Planning a wedding is exciting, but preparing for a lifetime together is even more important. Whether you're engaged or seriously dating, we want to help you build a healthier, stronger relationship before you say "I do."
Over eight sessions, you'll have honest conversations about the topics that matter most for a lasting marriage, including communication, conflict, finances, expectations, spiritual growth, sexual intimacy, and more. You'll gain practical tools, strengthen your connection, and build confidence for the story you're creating together.
As part of the experience, you'll complete a Prepare & Enrich relationship assessment and meet with a Marriage Leader Couple to talk through your results. Together, you'll celebrate your strengths, identify opportunities to grow, and receive personalized encouragement and practical guidance as you get ready for marriage. Here's some of the material we'll go through from Merge.
Start preparing your marriage today. Cost is $100 per couple.

Each session includes dinner, a short video, and a discussion where you can talk about your thoughts and questions with people from all different backgrounds. Try it the first night and see if Alpha is right for you. No strings attached, no pressure, and no cost.

Join us for a time of biblical teaching, worship, and connection in a community where men are committed to building their faith together. This is the starting point for men at SBC to step into a deeper faith in Jesus. “Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another” (Proverbs 27:17).
God uses the unique challenges in each of our lives to shape us into His likeness as we walk with Him. And as we allow Him to shape us, we become useful instruments in His hand to carry out the unique purpose and design He has for our lives.
Livestream and video recordings are available on the Men’s YouTube Page.
