Candlelight Apologetics Institute

Monday, September 14, 2026 - 6:00 PM

The Candlelight Apologetics Institute continues this fall with Semester Two, begining September 14.

Taught by Christian apologists Dan Fry and Dr. Jason Murray, CAI is designed to form thoughtful, grounded, and confident Christians who want to develop a clear, biblical understanding of what they believe and why.

Throughout Semester Two, participants will continue examining the foundations of truth and knowledge, evaluating competing worldviews, and learning to defend the Christian faith with clarity and conviction. Through study, discussion, and reflection, the course equips believers to think carefully, engage thoughtfully, and apply biblical truth faithfully.

CAI is designed to shape not only what Christians know, but how they think—preparing them to engage the culture with discernment and communicate the truth with wisdom and grace.

Mondays @ 6 PM in the Upstairs Chapel. Don't miss it!

Men's Quarterly Event: Pizza & Movie Night

Friday, September 18, 2026 - 6:30 PM

Every quarter, Candlelight Men’s Ministry gathers for fellowship—and this time, they’re shaking things up!

Instead of the traditional Saturday morning Men’s Breakfast, join the men of Candlelight on Friday, September 18 at 6:30 PM for pizza and a movie night. Pizza will be served, followed by a screening of Show Me the Father.

Fathers, bring your teen sons, and men, invite a friend from Candlelight to join you. This is a great opportunity to connect with other men in the church, enjoy the evening together, and welcome some new faces. Don't miss it! 


New Class: The Sunday Series

Sunday, September 20, 2026

This September, Candlelight is launching something new.

The Sunday Series is a monthly intensive designed to help equip Christians for the real-life challenges facing believers and families today. Led by Dr. Jason Murray, along with carefully selected guest speakers, each module will take a timely issue and examine it through the clear teaching of Scripture.

We’ll begin with two of the areas under some of the greatest pressure today: our children and our marriages. The first module will look at parenting, co-parenting, and grandparenting in an increasingly immersive digital world, including the influence of AI, online culture, and competing ideologies. The second will address how Christians can build, protect, and strengthen their marriages in a culture that increasingly treats relationships as disposable.

Future modules will tackle evangelism, politics, Bible prophecy, competing worldviews, and more—all with the goal of helping believers think biblically, stand faithfully, and stay mission-ready.

Join us beginning Sunday, September 20 at 10:30 AM in the Upstairs Chapel

Tuesday Women's Bible Study

Tuesday, October 6, 2026

Our Tuesday Women’s Bible Study is a place for women to gather, open God’s Word together, and grow in their understanding of Scripture alongside other women.

Led by Brenda Van Noy, this verse-by-verse study through the Book of Romans combines solid Bible teaching with worship, fellowship, and time for Q&A. Each week is designed to help women not only understand what Scripture says, but see how it applies to everyday life.

Women of all ages and life stages are welcome, whether you’ve been studying the Bible for years or are just getting started. It’s a warm, encouraging setting to learn, ask questions, and build friendships along the way.

Complimentary, structured childcare is available for birth-6th grade, so moms can participate fully.
