Steve and Tyler Kindermann, Josh Harris
“Our mission and passion is to chase after God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength and to tell the good news of Jesus Christ to others, and guide/encourage those who believe, to full maturity in Him.”
Vision statement
“We envision a Young Men’s fellowship which in everything follows the truth of God’s Word and the leading of the Holy Spirit. In close relationship with God through prayer we reach others for Christ. God uses this group to develop people to pray, walk in obedience to God’s Word, serve others, and regularly and actively share the good news of Jesus Christ. The Young Men’s Group is made up of high school-aged young men who give their lives to Christ so that God will use them to impact His kingdom as He sees fit. We commit to complete surrender and undistracted devotion to Christ.
The REAL Young Men’s Group is working to develop healthy relationships with other young men. We connect to those who are following Christ as well as those who do not. The young men in this ministry are involved in serving the church and community. The Young Men’s Group becomes known for its wholehearted passion for Jesus, prayer, actively-building disciples and sharing the gospel. In short, we will influence this world for Christ—not be influenced away from Christ! We will not drift through life. We will fix our eyes on Jesus and run after Him. We will seek to have an answer for anyone who asks us about the faith we have in us.
