Youth Ministry Overview

Our Student Ministry assists parents in developing their teenagers to become God-centered, spiritually discerning, mature believers who love God, surrender to the Lordship of Jesus, and walk in the Spirit. We realize that the teen years are an age of opportunity to train and equip children like no other season of life. Therefore, we attempt to impact their lives through our teaching, our involvement, and our example.

We will also encourage parents to remain engaged in the life of their teens, to protect them from godless influences, and to rise to the special role they have in raising their children. We will strive to have an atmosphere in our ministry where it is natural for teens and adults to relate together. We desire to see more teenagers who are polite, respectful and friendly, having a desire to gain wisdom from Godly adults.

Goals

We believe that the years of transition from childhood to adulthood are not to be squandered in immaturity and rebellion. There is a high standard in the Bible; The Lord expects godliness in the years of our youth. Thus, we will help teens grow in their understanding of God’s Word while praying for God to bring heart change. We will earnestly pray for our youth to:

  • See God as more valuable than anyone or anything in the universe
  • Find their ultimate joy and satisfaction in knowing God
  • Turn to God’s Word as their guidebook for life
  • Realize that maximum freedom is found under God’s authority
  • Develop a Christian worldview
  • Believe that purity paves the way to intimacy with God and others
  • Establish and cultivate healthy friendships
  • Apply Godly wisdom to all of their choices
  • Live a life of humility and service that considers others before themselves
  • Love their families and seek to honor their parents
