Pillar – Youth-Ed Ministry
Reaching and discipling the next generation.
We are committed to seeing every student in Northeast Ohio encounter Jesus and grow in biblical truth. Through partnerships with local churches, Released Time Bible Education (SMART), and All School Assembly Programs (ASAP), we help ministries and schools work together to reach youth in legal and spiritually impactful ways.
Expressions of this pillar include:
- SMART for NEO: Released Time Bible Education — bringing weekly Bible classes to public schools (legally enabled by House Bill 8 in 2025).
- ASAP America: Assemblies that share the Gospel and inspire hope across schools and communities.
- Partnerships connecting churches to their local schools for discipleship and outreach.
Scriptural foundation: Psalm 78:4–7; Proverbs 22:6; Matthew 19:14
