Youth & Young Adults
Excel Youth Ministry & 1 Way Movement
The JSBC youth and young adult motto is “Christ over culture.” We choose Christ over culture while engaging and loving the world we live in.
The JSBC youth and young adult ministry exists to meet the spiritual & social needs of the youth & young adults (13-30) at JSBC & in the community through regular Bible study & teaching, small groups, workshops, conferences, events, & other activities. This ministry is structured, but fun. We believe church should not be boring. We value community, consistency, unity, honor, and excellence in serving.
The youth and young adults’ ministry honors leadership and those who have laid the foundation before them at JSBC. While doing so, they take their place in the Church & in the community and serve as an examples based on 1 Timothy 4:12 – “Let no one look down on [you because of] your youth, but be an example and set a pattern for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, and in [moral] purity.”
Our mission is to establish a solid foundation for youth & young adults to become passionate, committed leaders of the Church through mentored, hands-on experience in the church that is done in excellence as well as creative, Bible teaching that is practical and causes total transformation. We use creative methods in a fun atmosphere where supportive, godly friendships can form and where spiritual growth & knowledge is encouraged.
