When I survey our culture and society I see students who, in ten to twenty years, will be our nation's doctors, educators, fathers, mothers, politicians, CEO's, police officers, city developers and much more - that alone is cause for great concern in today's world. So what do we do? The missionary Paul writes to Timothy and says, "Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe."
Our students CAN be the thread of transformation and change. In today's technology-filled culture, I strive to take a dynamic and unique approach to youth ministry, while at the same time utilizing current events in pop culture to convey God's standards for life. My view for ministry is one that empowers students to see the BIG picture in life - that life is more than the here and now and what we have, that Christianity is not just a crutch but a launching pad and a firm foundation for living life to its fullest and for overcoming addictions and sinful behaviors that are detrimental to body, soul and mind.
