Teen Track – Testify: His Word, Our Witness!
Do you find yourself unsure where to turn when life’s challenges ask you of your hope? Are you at a loss for words when asked about your faith?
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear
1 Peter 3:15
Teen Track is just around the corner! Join us as we discover the life changing work of God. Know the security we can have in God because His Testimony is true! Lean, Learn, and Live the Hope that is within us before a lost and searching world.

Hear from others who are walking in belief in their daily lives. With sessions by John Feakes, Vanessa Brobbel, and Karl Wagenhoffer, and contributions from Pat Roy, Rob McLeod, Celeste Lawrenson, Summer Root, and more.

Using bold artwork, gripping storytelling, and interactive games, she builds a legit picture of what it means to stay unbreakable-no matter the pressure, no matter the crowd.
