Marriage Mentors Needed

Consider serving by joining our marriage mentor team.  Our marriage mentor team builds into the lives of other couples to strengthen marriages today.  Marriage Mentoring Team members receive training and resources to focus on either helping newly married couples, couples who desire to strengthen their marriage, or couples who are working to repair their marriage.

Being a marriage mentor does not mean your marriage is perfect, but it does mean that you are striving to have a healthy marriage and you desire to help other couples to strengthen their marriage. 

How do I sign up or get more information? 

If you and your spouse are interested in making a difference in the lives of other couples, please complete the Marriage Mentor Application and email it to Tevis Austin or get more information by emailing Tevis Austin or call Tevis at 740-258-3001. 

 

Gather Around - helping families live their faith

  


Instead of Kid City focusing on a ministry for kids, Student Community only focusing on ministry for students, and everyone else focusing on their ministry, we have decided to focus our energy on coming together to build strong homes that live out their faith.

Does that mean we will no longer have Kid City or Student Community?  We still believe in the importance of designing worship and activities that are age appropriate for kids and students, but more importantly, we realize we need everyone to come together so that we can make a lasting difference in the lives of our kids and teens.   

We want to help families live their faith by creating a family environment that supports the home in faith development.  We want to partner with families.  We want to come along side them to provide support, encouragement, and resources for marriage, parenting, and mentoring kids and students today. We want to equip families with spiritual formation and family life skills, and we want to equip families to serve.

Our hope is that together we can learn how to share in God’s Story.  Together we can learn how to serve, and together we can live for God. 

If Jesus Were a Parent - Coaching Your Child to Follow Jesus

If Jesus were a Parent - Hal Perkins

If Jesus were a parent, would He use the same principles He used with His disciples? 

Exploring the principles found in the Gospels, Hal Perkins helps parents put them into practice.  He shows how to lead a child's heart into obedience through a constant context of parental grace and honesty.  With illustrations on how to establish God's truth - about Him, about right relationships, about abundant life - parents will discover how to empower their children to connect with Jesus and follow Him with passion.
