If you've been at The Orchard over the last several months, or even if you've been following online, you likely have heard us talk about our initiative called "Impact Tomorrow." Our goal as a church is to Impact Tomorrow through work that we are doing today, whether that be through discipleship, giving, or mission work overseas or right here at home.

This week, we're excited to share a podcast episode all about this Impact Tomorrow vision featuring our three Location Pastors: Chip Parker, Matthew Pennington and Eddie Blalock. Listen in as they share a bit more about the Impact Tomorrow books, the heart behind the initiative, and the vision for the future impact of The Orchard on our communities. When it comes to impacting lostness, we are here for IT!

It’s an Orange takeover! Last week, a team of our next generation leaders spent a few days in Atlanta, Georgia, attending the Orange Conference. It was a time of learning and refreshing as they all dove into what it means to lead kids and students and learned from some of the best in the ministry. In the midst of that, we took the time to sit down with them and recap some of the most impactful moments from the conference for you!

Listen in as Pastor Chip Parker and a few of our student ministry and kids ministry leadership teams share what they have learned from Orange Conference 2025. You’ll find conversations centered around dealing with grief, the importance of intentionality in relationships, and the need to feel refreshed for ministry.
