Harbor Youth exists to be a safe space for students to gather together and grow in Christ. We want students to explore their beliefs and develop a foundation that will carry their faith with them long after they leave Youth. We do this by weekly teachings, small groups, a weekly meal, fun nights out, retreats, and discipleship. We hope that you will join us on Sunday nights in the Family Life Center from 6-8:15ish pm!

Harbor Youth Code:

Intergenerational Relationships

Despite the age segregation that exists in our churches and broader culture, each young person is greatly benefited when surrounded by a team of five adults. We call this the 5:1 ratio.

Whole Gospel

Many young people see faith like a jacket: something they can put on or take off based on their behavior. We seek to help students develop a more robust understanding of the gospel, one that integrates faith into all aspects of life.

Partnership with Families

Research demonstrates that parents are the #1 influencers when it comes to spirituality in young people - yes, even teenagers. We help leaders develop new ways to partner with parents, empowering them to nurture faith in their families.

A Safe Place for Doubt

Doubt is not toxic to faith; silence is. Young people want conversations in response to their hardest questions, not just answers. We offer tools and training for these discussions that deepen the faith of everyone involved.

DIG DEEPER

Please check out Axis. This incredible resource is so helpful in navigating culturally relevant conversations with our students. We, as parents, are the biggest influencer in our children's lives. Research also proves that the people who introduce our children to a subject or topic become the authority of that subject who they typically turn to with questions.

Axis Conversation Kits and Parent Guides give us biblical wisdom with grace, truth, and love that will build bridges of trust and communication with parents and students.

Culture Translator sends a free email every Friday to spotlight 3 primary trends in the GenZ World as well as other helpful insights to help parents keep their fingers on the pusle of what students are thinking about.

Absolutely can't recommend enough!

Sometimes when you crack open scripture and read, it get's confusing and weird to the point you don't want to read because you're intimidated by the text.

The Bible Project makes some incredibly helpful videos that break things down so much nicer for us to understand the deeper context and meaning of scripture. Check out their website and Youtube channel for super helpful overview and topical studies.

P.O.T.S. Class Sundays from 10-10:50 am

Parents of teenage students is a small group of conversation, sharing, learning, and growing with other like minded parents who are wanting what's best for their family. Come make friends, learn and share your wisdom, and develop a community in love for God and love for each other. POTS is facilitated by Scott and Karen Haskins. In order for our students to turn out their best, we as parents are to model and disciple them with our best. Come grow in a community of grace Sunday mornings. They're currently in a series of discussions called "The Talks" that equips and prepares parents with the importance of how the "talk" isn't a one and done thing, but an ongoing conversation with our students.
