sozo yOUTH

No church has a future if it does not focus on making an engaging and safe place for young people. As we look at the world that we live in it is clear that we need to focus our energies on making sure they develop a firm foundation of faith. This faith foundation is a starting point that will make their journey through life that much more fruitful and productive. 

This is why we focus on:

  • Teaching from and understanding of the Bible

  • Awareness and experiencing the Spirit of God

  • Understanding of the dynamics of family and their spiritual growth within them

In the same way that we recognize GOD wants each of us to understand HIS plan for us, GOD also wants us to understand HIS blessings in our lives by way of our families. The family was God’s design and we believe it contains the secrets to spiritual growth. We do not believe it is our job to be responsible for the spiritual growth of children but to help parents in that endeavor. 

We realize that some people come back to church in order to raise their children even when they have departed from it. This is what God promises and we will continue to honor Him with a vibrant and very biblically based ministry to young people. That area of focus has a few different parts based upon providing spiritual development in an age-appropriate way. 

SOZO YTH (YOUTH)

Our teens (13-18) are also very special. Their ministry times are full of worship, teaching, prayer, and outreach. The enjoy outings together and have multiple times a year where we take them to special events. What is the value of that? A place where a young person can not only express themselves but they can ask questions. Many times young people simply get told what to think when they need to learn to think on their own but with a biblical foundation. We want to prepare these kids for a world full of controversy and inconsistency by giving them the understanding to make good choices. They engage in the families as vital members who can have as much spiritual insight as any adult.

We are currently looking for more SOZO Youth Servant Leaders, email us if this is something you feel God calling you to be a part of.

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.

1 Timothy 4:12
