Student Ministry

(Sixth grade through 12th grade) The Student Ministry of First Baptist Church desires to see students come into an authentic, life changing relationship with Jesus Christ. He is the only means that can bring them into right relationship with the Father. We are geared to train up students through the Word of God, because scripture tells us that, “Faith comes through hearing, and hearing by the Word of Christ” (Rom. 10:17). So, we want these students to engage God transparently through His Word, and to be transformed by the blood of Christ which leads them to repentance as the Holy Spirit allows them to truly see their sinful nature.

We want students, and parents, to see how relevant the Word is for their lives and the world around them. Why? Because it is the living and active, God breathed Word, and not just another random chance arrangement of thoughts born out of the opinion of man (Heb. 4:12; 2 Tim 3:16). As this happens, we desire to be more like Christ, to be in community with the body of believers, and to live daily for His glory in light of what He has done to give us redemption and reconciliation.
