YOUTH

Welcome to J12 and Da Cru

We offer Sunday morning Bible classes (1st, 2nd, and 3rd Sundays at 10:30 a.m.) for youth and teens in grades 5-12.

The J12 group is for youth in grades 5-8. Da Cru is for teens in grades 9-12.

We utilizing the Holy Bible, the Foursquare Prayer Guide, Raise Up Faith curriculum, age-appropriate activities, and books (i.e., The Case for Christ). Our current focus is helping kids to learn how to connect with God in prayer.

By participating in these ministries, your youth and/or teen will:

Learn and grow in knowing who God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are.
Learn the role of the Holy Spirit’s help in living for Jesus.
Learn to better resist negative peer pressure by (1) knowing they have been created by God, on purpose; (2) knowing He has a good plan for their lives; and (3) knowing who they are in Christ.
Use the Foursquare Prayer Guide to learn to talk (pray) confidently for him or herself and others.
Use the S.O.A.P. Bible Study Method to learn to read, study, and apply the Scriptures to their personal life and share what they have learned.
Learn to serve and utilize their God-given gifts during the morning service on each 4th Sunday. (These activities may include ushering, taking offering, praying, etc.)

J12 IS STARTING SOMETHING NEW

Introducing TEN, an interactive video series helping tweens discover how Jesus fulfills the Law and invites them into a life of love.

Through Jesus’ finished work on the cross, the Ten Commandments are fulfilled in two — loving God and loving people.

WHAT IS TEN?

TEN is an engaging, interactive curriculum where Gregg and Stephen walk tweens through what the Ten Commandments are, why they matter, and how Jesus transforms them in the New Covenant. Each week includes video teaching, Biblical exploration, an Excite moment to inspire action, and an Enlist moment inviting tweens to respond to what they’ve learned.

WHAT J12 IS REALLY ABOUT

J12 is built on the testimony of Jesus at twelve — a template for reaching a generation before they need to be rescued. Our heart is not to entertain tweens, but to create a culture where they thrive. When the seven words of Jesus take root in their spirit, they don’t need programming to live like Jesus — they live like Him out of love for the Father and His business.
