Youth Ministry

Dear Parents & Students,

The youth at Midtown Baptist Temple are some of our most cherished and beloved members in our church. We believe that they are not only the future of our local church and the kingdom of God advancing, but we also believe they are presently able ministers of the gospel. Our youth come from different places in the KC Metro and from different walks of life, but our church body strives together for one thing in these students' lives: fostering relationships between them and the Lord Jesus Christ.

As we all know, the life of a student today is a complex and often confusing one. The counselors, parents, and pastors at MBT know this and strive to support and encourage all of our students through the trials of their faith and to charge and challenge them to stand in that faith in the midst of a perverse and crooked world. Our church knows that the world wants to capture the hearts and minds of every student, so we are praying, laboring in love, and trusting God for His Word, His Spirit, and His Church to lead the students to a victorious Christian experience. We believe that every student is capable of being victorious over their circumstances, over the world, and over the confusion of the teenage years. That victory, we know, happens in Christ.

- Pastor Jeff Grasher / Youth
