About the series...

Join us in-person or online for our Doomsday Prep series from August 4 - August 25!
If the world ended today, would you be ready?

Both believers and non-believers alike have many questions when it comes to the topic of the end of the world. Some of the ones we hear most frequently are:

  • Are we living in the end times?
  • What are the signs that will warn us of the times?
  • Will there be a rapture? And if so, will we know about it?
  • How should a Jesus follower live IF we ARE living in the end times?

If you’ve ever been curious about any of that, the Bible gives us clear instructions on what the last days will look like, and how we can prepare ourselves.

Are you ready?

THE END IS NEAR

GET READY, STAY READY

FEAR IS NOT MY FUTURE

THERE WILL BE A DAY

Signs of the times:
Refers to Jesus's first coming, not predictions of the end times. (Matt. 16:1-3)

The Last Days:

The Battle of Armageddon:
A battle that is never fought, but symbolizes the ongoing fight between Jesus followers and the forces of evil.(Revelation 16:13-16, 19:11-21)

WHAT TO EXPECT

At Victory, it's come as you are. You're welcome here!

We understand showing up at a new place for the first time can be nerve-wracking, so here's more information about Victory and what you can expect. Every environment at Victory is designed with YOU in mind. And whether you're planning to join us in person or online, we can't wait to connect with you!



FIRST TIME GUESTS

Something we celebrate every week at Victory is our first time guests! Be sure to stop by our Connection Center during your visit for a free gift and more info about our church. Plan Your Visit to let us know you're coming!

WELCOMING ENVIRONMENTS

From the parking lot to the auditorium and everywhere in between, our First Impressions team is here to welcome you, guide you, and answer any questions you have.

ENGAGING WORSHIP

We believe the songs we sing affect the lives we live. All of our services have a live band that leads us in engaging worship. During this series, you can expect to hear a mix of new and familiar songs.

RELEVANT TEACHING

Throughout this series our Lead Minister will teach from our Franklin campus, and the sermon will be broadcasted to our other locations and online platforms. Each week you can expect biblically based teaching with real-life applications.

WHAT TO WEAR

Whatever makes you comfortable. Most people wear jeans and a t-shirt. If you feel more comfortable in a suit or a dress, wear that! At Victory, it's come as you are! Everyone is welcome here. 

VICTORY KIDS

Victory Kids offers age appropriate environments and programming for children all the way from newborn to 4th grade. Our Victory Kids environments consist of Early Childhood (birth-Pre K) and Elementary (K-4th Grade). Your kids will have a blast learning about Jesus in these environments, allowing you able to focus on our main gatherings in the Auditorium. Be sure to fill out our family pre-registration below before you get here for a quick, easy check-in process! (Please note: There is no kids or students programming during our 8:00am service).

MIDDLE SCHOOL GATHERING: 5TH-8TH GRADE

Our 5th-8th grade students meet on Sunday mornings at the same time as our adult worship gatherings at 9:30 & 11:00am. (There is no kids or students programming during our 8:00am service). During the gatherings, students will enjoy fellowship, worship, games, small group discussion, and a message geared toward the lives of 5th-8th grade students.

HIGH SCHOOL GATHERING: 9TH-12TH GRADE

High School Gatherings begin August 11, and will take place most Sunday evenings from 6:00p-8:00p. There is a time for everything, and we believe that the time to gather with other high school students is one of the most important times of the week. Our goal is to create and provide a relationally engaging environment. At our gatherings we allow for plenty of time to hang out, have fun, eat dinner, and talk about the stuff every high school student goes through and how God has purposely designed us to go through it.

WAYS TO INVITE

Invest and Invite. Don't ever underestimate the power of an invitation. Sometimes all it takes is a simple invite to build a meaningful relationship and jumpstart someone’s spiritual journey. We get that inviting someone to church may feel like a challenge, but it doesn't have to! Below we've included ways to help you invite others to Victory with you.

  • Watch this video about who to invite, and how.
  • Casually ask a friend, family member, neighbor or colleague to join you at our Franklin Campus location or to watch with you online through Victory Everywhere.
  • Host a watch party or invite someone over social media using one of our sharable invites on this page.
  • Text a friend and invite them to next Sunday's service.
  • Share the Victory Everywhere livestream link on your social media pages.

HAVING THE CONVERSATION

To invest and invite, you have to help other see what Jesus is offering. Simply put "Come and See." But maybe you're not sure what to say, or how to even start that conversation? Maybe you're afraid they'll ask a question that you won't be able to answer?

But, guess what? You don't have to be perfect. Just be real. Just be yourself. Your faith and your story will speak volumes when it comes time. Let God do the rest.

Just get them talking. Tell them your story and get to know theirs as well! It's amazing what God can do in this moment and where He will lead your conversation. Try to say something like this:

  • "Hey, do you have a church? I'd love for you to join me at Victory!" (Or, join me on my watch party!)
  • "Would you like to attend church with me? I attend Victory and our gathering happen at [insert gathering times]. You pick the time that works best for you and we can go together!"
  • "My church has great music and relevant messages each and every week. If you would like to check it out in person let me know, or here's the link to our livestream. You can watch it from home to see how you like it!"
  • "I'd love you tell you sometime what God has done in my life. Attending Victory has changed my life, and I'd love to share my story with you."

BUT WHAT IF THEY SAY "NO"?

At some point, we're going to get turned down, but that is okay! You've started a conversation. You've started a connection. You've let someone know that you care. Now, allow God to work in their life. Don't get discouraged. Continue to pray for them and try again later.
