Given the temptations and confusion present in our culture, your children face numerous challenges: questions of identity, peer pressure at school, and competing worldviews. Therefore, parents have a daunting task as they seek reach their children with the gospel. And we think that a child’s parents are the most important component in any youth ministry (Ephesians 6:4). We seek to partner with parents in the following ways:
- We provide resources that help equip parents with a biblical perspective (e.g., Christian books, seminars, one on one discipleship, etc.).
- Pastoral counseling is available to parents. Here we can work through your unique challenges while offering biblical wisdom and encouragement.
- By saturating your children with the Bible, whether it be through Sunday school or small groups or the Sunday morning service. In gatherings like these, your children will learn how the gospel shapes our lives and brings hope and clarity when the heat comes. By being a Word-centered church, your children will encounter the truth which yields transformation.
- Through Sunday school classes. Teenagers are encouraged to join with adults for edifying biblical instruction that develops wisdom and character. Current Sunday School Class
- Through Small Groups. Teenagers are encouraged to join with adults as we meet in each other's homes on a regular basis to share our struggles and joys, to encourage one another, to pray for one another, to care for one another’s practical needs, to grow in wisdom and knowledge of the truth, and to work together to reach unbelievers with the gospel. Current Small Groups
- Through connection to the body of Christ, the local church. When your teenager interacts with the whole congregation, they’ll learn how to fellowship with people from diverse backgrounds, they’ll learn how to honor and submit to their elders, they’ll learn how to honor older men and women, and they’ll learn how to live out the one another commands of the New Testament. They can only learn how to do this in the context of the local church. As they engage and experience the local church in its fullness, they’ll have opportunity to value the local church and develop as disciples themselves.
