No Takeover Leader’s Retreat
October 5
The Student Ministry is for 6th – 12th graders. We are dedicated to providing an environment that is safe, fun, engaging, and attractive to all students. We also strive to help our students grow in their relationship with Jesus, learn how to use and apply what is written in the Bible to their lives, learn how to serve and give generously, and connect with other students and adult leaders through authentic, nurturing relationships.
The students meet on Sunday nights. Doors open at 5:45 with a social gathering, games, and fun to provide a time for the students to interact and hang out. We begin our services at 6:00 which include music, bible teaching, application, and games. After the service, we break into small groups to connect with other students and adult leaders, discuss the lesson and figure out how to apply it to our lives, dig deeper into the Bible and prayer, and have fun with games and activities. We wrap up around 7:45 pm.
CURRENT TEACHING
In this series we will see how real faith draws us closer to God – and makes us more like Jesus. James says “faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.” Faith without action is like a boat without oars; it goes nowhere. But when faith moves into works, God leads us toward growth, transformation, and a life that reflects Christ.
Why This Should Matter to You:
Life is not easy. You already know that. Hard seasons will test your faith, temptations will challenge what you really believe, and the words you speak can either bring life or cause harm.
If your faith stays still, it is empty. But when you let God shape you through trials, action, and speech, your faith becomes real and changes you and those around you.
