Expect great food, ridiculous competition, unnecessary trash talk, and grown men celebrating like they just won the Super Bowl after tossing a beanbag into a hole.

Ladies Night: The Scripture Table

Ladies Night: The Scripture Table

Come, slow down, and make space for God’s Word. The Scripture Table is a gentle and relaxing night for women to gather, enjoy coffee, tea, and snacks, listen to peaceful music, and spend intentional time writing Scripture by hand.

Each woman will receive a beautiful watercolor book featuring the Book of Psalms, where you’ll personally write out the Psalms. There’s something powerful about slowing down and putting God’s Word on paper, so we can meditate on it and hide His Word in our hearts as we carry His truth with us wherever we go.

Your $20 registration includes your watercolor Psalms book, all writing supplies, coffee, tea, and snacks.

Come as you are, bring your Bible, and join us around The Scripture Table as we make room for God’s Word and for one another.

Guys Night

Guys Night

Legends are not born. They are smoked.

On a night soon to be etched into church history, the men of Authentic Church will gather for real food, real talk, and the kind of stories that get more heroic with every retelling. At the center of it all: Marty Hoffman — husband, father, and now, rib whisperer — will step up to the smoker and unveil his award-winning ribs upon the masses.

This is not just a guys night. This is a summit. A council of men. A brotherhood forged in pork smoke and bad jokes.

Bring your appetite & an empty belly. Leave your excuses at the door.

One night. One legend. One rack of ribs that will be spoken of for generations.
