ABOUT OUR STUDENT PROGRAM
TeamStudents: A Wednesday night Bible study (an extension of our TeamKid program) led by church volunteers where students will develop a Biblical worldview, and how to apply that worldview to their everyday lives. The overall goal is centered on equipping families to follow Christ.
Our Student Program Mission:
Developing a Biblical worldview starts at home, but we are here to help. Our mission is to build your student's worldview by studying the Scripture, prayer, and fellowship. All of our meetings, special events, retreats / camp session, are geared toward this mission.
Meeting Times:
The youth group meets on Wednesday nights at 7 P.M. (Led by church volunteers)

developing a biblical worldview
Encourage your child to place God first
Parents, as the primary faith trainers, I am praying for you in the challenge of encouraging your children to worship and place God first in their lives. Please help reinforce these Truths below that we are covering during our Bible Fellowship classes at BBBC.
We as parents must be convicted of the reality that the content being viewed on these devices is shaping their worldview.
Exodus 20:2-3 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. “You shall have no other gods before me."
The Lord commands us not to worship false idols. We have made many idols in 21st Century America including social media, video games, sports, entertainment, politics, etc. While these things can be tools, when we prioritize them above our relationship with God (reading His Word and prayer), we have made them idols.
What does it look like to place God first in today’s culture? What are the consequences of putting other things before God? (Please ask this to your student: again, what is the consequence in our personal lives and as a society if we place other things before God?)
So how do we do this? How can we encourage a teenager to do this?
We cannot force worship from our children, or for ourselves. While we can encourage and pray for them, there must be a desire to want to grow in their faith. However, as parents we can and should enforce a family worship time. Even if done out of obedience vs. desire, it plants seeds of conviction, encouragement, knowledge, and discipline to walk with the Lord.
Your brother in Christ,
Pastor Steven

So how do we do this? How can we encourage a teenager to do this?
- Realize apart from God's help you or your child cannot and will not pursue God. Psalm 16:1-2 says: Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.”
- Pray for God to give you and your family the desire to know Him better. Psalm 37:4-5 says: Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act.
- Implement a family worship time in your household, if you have not already. Enforce it. Proverbs 22:6 is our prescription and mission statement as parents (not a guarantee from God, but a guiding principle and we should do our part).

A Biblical worldview is viewing the world, the beginning of the world, people in the world, the problems in the world, governments in the world, issues in the world, solutions for the problems in the world, and the future of the world -- through God’s Word.
A biblical worldview requires that you know what the Word of God teaches!

Our church sends our youth to Carolina Creek Christian Camp near Huntsville, TX. We have been in partnership with CCCC since they started their camp, and it has become one of the biggest Christian camps in Texas. There are MANY activities to keep your youth entertained, and most importantly, there are many opportunities to open the Word and grow in their relationship with the Lord.
Because of our long-term relationship with CCCC, members of our church receive a massive discount on the price of camp. Additionally, our youth do several fundraisers to lower the cost per student to attend camp.
