Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech,
in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity - 1 Timothy 4:12

We will stand out
We will not focus on ourselves
We will serve others
We will not hate
We will love
We will defy
We will defy expectations
We will defy the odds
We will defy our generation
We will defy darkness
We will defy the things of this world

Because of Christ, we will defy
We will defy

Wednesday Nights
Bible Study @ 6 p.m.
We invite both Middle School and High School students to our weekly Bible Study in the Chapel. It is a great time of study, group discussion and encouragement in a more casual setting. We promise you a night that contains Jesus, laughter and junk food. This semester, we will be exploring the book of Genesis together.
With every study we choose, we make sure that they are relevant and foundational for teens in following after the Lord. Feel free to come early and stay after, as this will surely be a night that will transform your week.
Sunday Mornings
Sunday Morning Discipleship @ 9:30 am
Here students will find Godly adults who have a heart for teens guiding them through difficult times and challenging them with the truths of God’s Word.
Our format for Sunday mornings starts out in large group to watch the brief video, then break up into girls and guys for a time of teaching. We then want to spend some time in small groups for discussion and prayer. This should be a powerful time of discipleship as the students have each week's lesson reinforced from 3 distinct perspectives: from the video, their teacher and their peers. Hope to see you there!
