Our theme for The LIFT Tour 23 is AWAKEN. This year, we are discovering what it means to step into the new life that Jesus called us to. Like Lazarus, before we can step into new life, we must first step out of the old grave clothes that are holding us back. Grave clothes that have us wrapped up in sin, hurt, anger, pride, or unforgiveness. AWAKEN documents the true story of Lazarus…that not only demonstrates a present freedom, but it is the foreshadow of a future eternal freedom! A story of how, what was once dead, can now be AWAKEN. It’s a story that reminds us of the truth Paul declares in 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV), “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” Thus, coming to a city near you, The LIFT Tour 23 wants to invite you to experience a four-part Docuseries-style journey through John 11.
