H.A.B.I.T.S.
Unfortunately, there's a statistic out there that says: "Close to 80% of students who graduate from high school (who have been churched) stop attending church through their 20 - somethings and don't return until they have their first child".
We don't like that statistic and we want to change it.
We believe that students need to develop Godly habits in their lives if they are to stay connected to Christ through those post-high school years. HABITS (we have found) is a highly successful way to get students to remain true to their God.
Our Program called H.A.B.I.T.S. helps students do the following: H - Hang time with God (daily quiet time) A - Accountability with other believers (we pair students up and help them grow together in a spirtual friendship). B - Bible Memorization... we've chosen several verses we think are a great start to hiding God's Word in our hearts. I - Involvement with the Church Body. This is geared to help students live out their faith and serve in this local church. T - Tithing. God is interested in our time, talents and treasures. S - Studying the Scriptures. We have several New Testament books broken down verse by verse to help your teen understand what God's Word is all about.
