Our 2Twelve Youth Services are designed to create a safe place for teens (ages 11-18) to connect with God, each other, and the world around them. Our full youth service gatherings are held on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of each month right after the 2nd service ends. Our programming also provides room for Small Group Hangouts to happen in the off-weeks. Each youth service features a free lunch, a time of praise & worship, group games, a relevant message that challenges students to activate their faith weekly, and a Small Group connection time to help students dig deeper into the message and ask questions to help clarify their faith.
Our Current Series:
IF YOU ONLY KNEW
by Andy Stanley
Have you ever felt a little crazy? Maybe you cheer for a sports team that no one else likes. Maybe you’re the only person who doesn’t love the new band everyone else is talking about. Maybe it seems like everyone understands what’s going on in Spanish class expect you. When you’re in a situation where it seems everyone agrees or understands—and you don’t—it can feel like you’re losing your mind. You wonder, “Am I missing something?” Honestly, a lot of us have felt that way at church. We hear people talk about praying or reading the Bible in a way that sounds like it’s the most exciting thing in the world, except . . . for us, it isn’t. In fact, when it comes to the habits that are supposed to grow our faith the most, they’re actually the ones we want to do the least. And maybe that’s just how it is. Since prayer and Bible reading and church are good for you, maybe you’re just supposed to just suffer through them. But what if you’re missing something? What if the people who do these thingsjust see something you don’t see? And what if a single piece of missing information could completely change the way you interact with God, His Word, and His people? Maybe you’d go from “have to” to “want to,” if you only knew.
