High School

On Sunday nights our HS students go to different host homes for a great time of food, fellowship, and small group Bible study. We leave the church at 5:30pm and return around 7:30pm. Transportation is provided. Currently, we are taking our HS students through the New Testament as they learn practical applications for everyday living.

On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights we have small intensive discipleship groups that are going through a variety of different materials that help them understand what it truly means to have an intimate walk with God.

Middle School

On Sunday nights our MS students meet on campus and then travel to Crooked Creek Park for an awesome time of food, fun, and small group Bible study from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. Currently, our MS students are learning practical applications for living godly lives in an ungodly world.

During the week we have small intensive discipleship groups that are going through a variety of different materials that help them understand what it means to walk with God, impact their campuses and live out their Christian walk in their everyday lives. We have four small groups that meet on Wednesday nights from 6:30pm to 7:30pm on the church campus.

Philosophy of Ministry 

We recognize that every student is at a different level in their walk with Christ. Because of this, we have a variety of ministry opportunities to reach every student at every level.

Community Level - Students who aren't involved in any church. Ministry Opportunities - Campus ministry. The student pastor and leadership are actively involved with the school campuses through lunch with students, supporting school activities, and just being a familiar face on the campuses.

Crowd Level - Students who are just there for the big stuff, fun stuff, our just because their friends are there. Ministry Opportunities - A student worship service geared just for teenagers dealing with the issues that they face on a daily basis. The format is high energy, multi-media driven, with crazy games that break the ice to help students become more receptive to gospel. Other ministry opportunities include: annual ski retreats, camps, summer Mission Trips, Disciple Now Weekends, White Water Rafting Trips, Spelunking (cave exploring) and all kinds of other crazy stuff that open the doors for students to hear the message of Jesus that can change their lives.

Congregation Level -Students who are interested in growing a little deeper in their walk with God, but still not at the point where they will "dig deep". Ministry Opportunities - Our Area Bible Studies (ABS) on Sunday nights is geared to move students into a deeper relationship with God. Our ABS is small group discipleship that deals with more than just the "issues" that students face. It deals with how God wants to be an intimate part of their lives and what He does to try to make that happen.

Committed Level - Students who are deeply interested in growing close to God. Ministry Opportunities - Weekly Intensive Discipleship Groups (I.D.G.'s). These discipleship groups dig deep into what God is wanting to accomplish in and through the lives of students. Studies include: Experiencing God for Students, The Mind of Christ, Masterlife for Students, Heaven - Your Real Home and a variety of other studies. Most of these studies require take home homework that students must complete prior to the next meeting.

Core Level - Students who have made it through the circles and are interested and ready to do ministry themselves. Ministry Opportunities - Students help lead other ministries as Table Leaders on Sunday morning (senior only working with MS students), worship leaders, and other leadership responsibilities.
