MINISTRY THROUGH RELATIONSHIP

The basic methodology of our Student Ministry is discipleship that centers on:

  1. Teaching that shows Christ, leads to a deeper relationship with Christ and his Word.
  2. Intergenerational shepherding that disciples our students toward growth in Christ.
  3. Opportunities for students to share in the life and mission of the church.

Opportunities in our Student Ministry seek to "put feet" on our methodology through:

  • Sunday School: an emphasis on showing students Christ through Scriptural and Doctrinal teaching, with a benchmark of deeper understanding and knowledge. For middle school students, we aim for an understanding of Scripture as one unified story and a basic grasp of doctrine. For high school students, we aim for fluency with Scripture and Doctrine.  

  • Midweek: an emphasis on shepherding through Intergenerational Discipleship, with a benchmark of deeper relationships with mentors and peers. For middle and high school students, we aim for deeper integration of the Gospel in a student’s life through this discipleship.  

  • Corporate Worship: an emphasis on sharing in the life of the larger Body of Christ, with a benchmark of faithful attendance and engagement in worship. For middle school students, we aim for a growing grasp of the elements of worship. For high school students, we aim for thoughtful engagement and participation in corporate worship.  

  • Special Events: an emphasis on students sharing their faith, practicing hospitality, and serving others, with a benchmark of students proclaiming the Gospel in word and deed. For middle school students, we aim to see increasing evangelism and invitation of friends to church events. For high school students, we aim to see practices of hospitality and increasing participation in outreach ministries of the church.
