Whatever Ministries
"Whatever you do in word or deed,
do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus…" Colossians 3:17

     As part of God's church, Whatever Ministries exists to bring glory to God by striving to be God-centered and student transforming in whatever that we do.

     In gathering we praise Him in song, are transformed by His word, bow before Him in prayer, and build up His people in true fellowship and service.

     In spreading we strive to lovingly serve those around us and to proclaim the gospel of Christ to a lost world.

What is Whatever Ministries?
     Whatever Ministries is the high school and junior high ministry at First Baptist Church of Auburn. This ministry is simply a practical way that we can seek to minister to junior high and high school students. We are here because we believe God desires us to minister to junior high and high school students for His honor and glory.

What is it that Whatever Ministries is trying to do?
     We seek to pursue the biblical goal of seeing every believer the Lord has put in our fellowship growing in sanctification and Christ-likeness. We will also persistently seek the salvation of those who are not saved but who still happen to be involved in the ministry.
     We seek to focus on the biblical ministry methods of genuine worship in music, expository preaching of the Scriptures, corporate prayer, discipleship and equipping. In addition to this we seek to consistently facilitate outreach and service activities.
     We believe that “fun” activities can be beneficial for building relationships, sharing life together, and providing a context for deep and real fellowship to take place.
     Our goal is not to be overly complicated or excessively programmed but to simply be biblical in what we do.

What is the Relation of Whatever Ministries to the Rest of the Church?
     We believe that student ministries should inseparably attached to the church, that believing students are a vital and working part of the church and that student ministries is dependent on and in need of the church. We believe that students need to interact not only with believers of their own age but with believers of all different ages and maturity levels (1 Corinthians 12:12-18, Matthew 16:18, 1 Peter 5:5, Titus 2:1-8).

What is the Relation of Whatever Ministries to the Family?
     We believe that student ministries is and should be only a supplement to what is going on in believing families. Involvement in student ministries is a way that student can begin to display their independent commitment to the church and its role in their lives. As a student ministries we are currently working towards our role in exhorting and training parents in their responsibilities as the primary shepherds and disciplers of their students (Ephesians 6:1-4, Colossians 3:20-21, Acts 2:42-47, Hebrews 10:24-25).
