Fairway Students
Our Mission
We believe the purpose of student ministry is not simply to provide age-appropriate activities or clean entertainment. Rather, Fairway Student Ministry exists to teach, shepherd, and cultivate deep affections for Jesus Christ in teenagers and young adults.
Our prayer is to see students who abide in Christ, who walk in a manner worthy of the gospel, and who grow into lifelong disciples of Jesus. We desire for every student who passes through our ministry to leave with:
-
A growing ability to read, study, and understand God’s Word
-
A clear understanding of the importance of the local church
-
A conviction to live out and help fulfill the Great Commission
We believe the gospel truly changes lives. Therefore, our singular mission in student ministry is to reach teenagers with the gospel of Jesus Christ and help them grow in faithful obedience to Him.
To pursue this mission, we focus our efforts on Sunday morning Life Groups, a Wednesday night youth Bible study, and intentional fellowship opportunities throughout the year—including camps, lock-ins, and other activities designed to foster community and spiritual growth.
Sunday Mornings
Sunday School (Life Groups) | 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM
During Sunday School, our students are currently working through a curriculum teaching them to read and apply the Scriptures.
The curriculum is walking readers through the Bible’s grand narrative from Creation to Christ’s return. Students learn why context matters, how to find Jesus on every page, and practical methods for applying Scripture to daily life.
Key features:
- Clear explanation of the Bible’s unified story
- Step–by–step guidance for observation and interpretation
- Practical “ABCD” framework for application (Affections, Beliefs, Conduct, Destination)
- Reflection questions for deeper engagement
Written in an engaging, conversational style, this guide helps students move beyond surface–level Bible reading to discover the richness and relevance of God’s Word for their lives.
Wednesday Nights
Bible Study | 6:15 PM – 7:45 PM
On Wednesday nights, students gather for in-depth Bible study centered on expositional teaching. Currently, we are walking verse by verse through the book of John, helping students see the meaning, context, and application of God’s Word.
Each Wednesday includes:
-
Christ-Centered Worship
-
Rich, Scripture-centered teaching
-
A focus on understanding the text as it was written
-
Breakout groups divided by age and gender, led by trusted adult leaders
These small groups provide space for discussion, questions, prayer, and practical application of the lesson.
Our desire is that Fairway Students would not simply attend youth group, but would grow into biblically grounded, gospel-shaped followers of Christ who love the church and live on mission.
