Main Session: Strengthened
Join Robin Houston and Nancy Tuttle for an honest and encouraging conversation about following God through the many seasons of life.
Drawing from their own experiences of faith, family, ministry, leadership, challenges, and change, Robin and Nancy will share what God has taught them about developing a faith that is deep, resilient, and continually growing.
Together, we’ll explore what it looks like to trust God when the path isn’t clear, recognize His faithfulness along the way, and live with bold purpose right where He has placed us.
Choose Your Breakouts
You’ll have the opportunity to attend two breakout sessions during the conference. Whether you’re looking to grow deeper in your faith, find practical encouragement for the season you’re in, or simply try something new, there’s a place for you.
You’ll select your two breakout sessions when you register.
Breakout Session 1

Hearing God Through His Word
Have you ever read a passage of Scripture and wondered, What does this mean—and what does it have to do with my life? You’re not alone. In this breakout, we’ll explore practical ways to better understand what we’re reading, recognize the context and purpose behind a passage, and discover how God’s Word speaks into our everyday lives. Whether you’ve studied the Bible for years or sometimes struggle to know where to begin, you’ll leave encouraged and better equipped to open Scripture with confidence, understanding, and an expectation that God has something to teach you.

When You Don’t Have the Words: Building a Prayer Life for Every Season
Prayer isn’t only a rescue plan for moments of crisis—it’s an ongoing conversation with God. But what does that look like when you’re overwhelmed, distracted, grieving, or simply unsure what to say? This breakout will offer simple, practical ways to build an honest rhythm of prayer in everyday life and continue coming to God through every season—even when the words won’t come.
Leader: Joanne Forbes
Who God Says You Are
It’s easy to let our roles, accomplishments, relationships, or even our failures define who we are. But our truest identity is found in what God says about us. In this breakout, we’ll explore the truth of Scripture and learn how knowing who we are in Christ can bring freedom from comparison, insecurity, and the pressure to prove
Find Your Place: Using Your Gifts to Serve and Belong
God has uniquely gifted each of us with something to offer. Discover how to recognize your gifts and find meaningful ways to use them at Point Harbor. We’ll explore how serving is more than simply filling a need—it’s an opportunity to grow in your faith, build genuine relationships, and experience a deeper sense of connection and belonging within your church family.
Planting Seeds: Taking the Pressure Off Sharing Your Faith
Sharing your faith doesn’t mean you have to lead someone to Christ in one conversation. Learn to recognize your role—planting, watering, inviting, encouraging—and trust God with the results.
Leader: Cathy Gallahorn
Getting to the Heart of Your Child
It’s easy to focus on stopping bad behavior, but what is happening underneath it? Learn how to look beyond obedience and consequences to help children recognize what’s happening in their hearts and grow in character, responsibility, and faith.
Leader: Candace Delia
Breakout Session 2
You will select one during registration.
You Don’t Have to Carry It All
When your mind won’t slow down and you feel responsible for keeping everyone else happy, life can become exhausting. Learn to recognize anxious thought patterns and people-pleasing tendencies, set healthy boundaries, and understand the difference between loving others and carrying what was never yours to carry. Explore practical, biblical ways to renew your mind, trust God with what you can’t control, and find freedom in living for His approval instead of everyone else’s.
Leader: Brandy Bluitt
Loops of Grace
Learn the basics of crochet in this relaxed, hands-on breakout designed for beginners. As you practice simple stitches, you’ll discover a beautiful reminder woven into the process: mistakes don’t have to be the end of the story. Sometimes we simply go back, begin again, and keep moving forward. Come enjoy creating something with your hands while reflecting on God’s grace, patience, forgiveness, and the new beginnings He gives us.
Leader: Amber Silva

Healthcare can feel overwhelming, whether you’re managing your own needs or helping care for someone you love.

You’ll leave better equipped to advocate for yourself and others and approach healthcare decisions with greater confidence.
