180 Youth

Wednesday Nights | Grades 7-12 | 7pm - 9:30pm

Wednesday nights at 180 are all about showing up, having fun, and being part of something real. Whether you’re playing video games, shooting pool, grabbing a snack, or jumping into the chaos of games and challenges, there’s always space to hang out and be yourself.

But it’s more than just a good time. We create space to talk about real life and real faith—even the hard questions about God, life, and everything in between. No topic is off-limits, and you don’t have to have it all figured out.

Every night includes a short message and small groups where you can be honest, ask questions, and build genuine friendships with people who actually care.

Here’s what’s going on this month: check out our schedule below to see upcoming themes, events, and everything you won’t want to miss.

SUMMER SERIES: FINDING BIGFOOT

Finding Bigfoot continues into August as we keep searching for some of the most common things people think are in the Bible—but actually aren't. Each week, we'll put another popular "Bible verse" under the microscope, uncover the story behind it, and discover what Scripture really says instead.

Along the way, we'll continue learning how to spot the difference between cultural Christian sayings and God's actual Word, building a faith that's grounded in truth—not just what we've heard repeated.

• Everything Happens For A Reason (August 5th)
  This week, we're tackling one of the most common phrases people quote during difficult seasons: everything happens for a reason. Is that actually what the Bible teaches?

  We'll explore what Scripture really says about suffering, God's sovereignty, and how He works even through life's hardest moments. It's an honest conversation about pain, hope, and the promise that God is with us no matter what we face.
  

• God Won't Give You More Than You Can Handle (August 19th)

  We're back with another week of Finding Bigfoot, taking a closer look at the phrase God won't give you more than you can handle.

  Many people believe it's found somewhere in the Bible—but is it? Together we'll discover what Scripture actually says about trials, temptation, and why God never intended for us to carry life's burdens alone.

August 12th - Water Wars! 🔫

Get ready to cool off because Water Wars is taking over 180 Youth! Bring your water blaster (if you have one), wear clothes you don't mind getting soaked, and prepare for an evening of epic water battles, and plenty of laughs.

Whether you're dodging streams of water or leading the charge for your team, this is one summer night you won't want to miss. Invite your friends and get ready to get drenched!

August 26th - ACTIVATE!

We’re wrapping up the summer with an exciting night at Activate!

If you’ve never heard of Activate before, it’s an immersive, real-life gaming experience where teams work together to complete fast-paced physical and mental challenges. Think of it as stepping inside a video game! Each room offers a different mission that will have students running, climbing, jumping, dodging lasers, solving puzzles, and working together to earn points. It’s active, exciting, and a ton of fun!
