FIT Youth
We want your kids here, and we want them to want to be here.
A place for teens to connect as the people of YHVH, safe from the distractions chasing their hearts. Plenty of fun, and a bigger purpose underneath all of it.
Why it matters
Never before have there been more distractions competing for our time: the internet, television, social media. The need to connect as a community, as the people of YHVH, is as critical as ever.
Deliberate community
We pursue their hearts with passion.
Our teen class seeks this community every week. In the battle for our kids’ hearts, we have to be deliberate. Deuteronomy 6:5–9 tells us to love the Lord with everything, to speak of His Torah and teach it to our children when we sit, stand, walk, and play.
We’ll do plenty of play. But what we’re about is teaching, speaking, and talking about God’s word at every opportunity. In Luke 10:25–37, Yeshua spells out the whole Torah with the parable of the Good Samaritan, loving Him with everything also means loving others. That’s the community we chase after.
Purpose-driven
Planting purpose in their hearts.
Genesis 1 says, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” The Hebrew word for created is bara: to give purpose or function to. The way God gave purpose to the earth, we seek to plant that purpose in the hearts of our kids.
We’ll have fun, and tons of it. But we seek a bigger purpose: to follow after our King with everything, and to bring the life-changing news of our Messiah to our teens.
“Let no one despise your youth; instead, be an example to the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.”
1 Timothy 4:12
