FBC Benbrook Student Ministry exist to disciple 7th-12th grade students* (see note at the bottom of the page) towards a life dedicated to knowing and serving Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. We believe our students are young adults in training and treat them with respect and patience as we seek to equip them into an intimate relationship with Jesus. Honesty and vulnerability are the foundation of how we grow in our relationship with God and deeper fellowship with the body of Christ. We desire to to show students their role in the body of Christ and the Kingdom of God.

Sunday Mornings @ 10:00am

The students engage in teaching from the Bible and community with others in the youth room. Bible study happens in small adult lead groups broken up between guys and girls.

Sunday Evenings @ 7:00pm

Our Sunday nights are a time when "Numb to known" (our guys group) and L.I.F.T (our girls group) meets. Typically we meet separately, however recently we started meeting together to read "The pursuit of Holiness" by Jerry Bridges. Students are required to read the assigned chapter for the week and come together to discuss. This is a student lead discussion with our adult leaders present.

Wednesday Nights @ 6:30pm

Each week students worship with each other and hear teaching from the Bible in the youth room. We journey through books of the Bible verse by verse. Currently we are studying the book of Colossians. Students are encouraged to come early and hang out and play games before we start at 6:30pm. Pizza is free and is served at 6pm.

This summer we will be taking our students to the hill country of Texas. We will be teaming up with mission-serve.com to help with the disaster clean up and rebuilding. Our students will have the opportunity to serve through working to rebuild after the devastating floods that hit this area in July of 2025. The days will be long and hot as our students work with students from other churches and adult team leads to complete pre-planned projects. In the evenings there will be worship and preaching.

This week is more like a mission trip and not like our traditional summer camp that we have taken students to in the past.

July 12th-18th 2026

Cost is $289 per student. (Cost includes food, travel, and lodging)

More information and registration will be coming soon.

*The transition from Children's Ministry to Student Ministry marks a major milestone of change in a person's life, the change from a child to a young adult.  While student ministry is listed as accommodating 7th through 12th graders, here at FBC Benbrook we have a minimum age requirement for promotion into the student ministry.  Regardless of “school grade” the student has to have turned 12 on or by September 1st before entering into Student Ministry for that calendar year’s promotion Sunday.  If the student turns 12 after September 1st they will be promoted into Student Ministry during the next calendar year's promotion Sunday.  The student ministry is a place where adult topics are discussed through a biblical lens that younger students are not ready to hear and discuss.  This policy starts January 1, 2025
