Youth Ministry

Youth MinistriesAn intense battle is raging for the hearts and minds of America's 33 million teens. Statistics tell us only four percent of this next generation will be Christian when they reach adulthood.

Our purpose is to reach tweens, teens and young adults with the love and life-changing truth of the Gospel. We create resources, host events and partner with youth leaders to provide cutting-edge ministry tools to reach today's teens. Our prayer is that every IPHC teen be on fire for God and relentlessly pursue His will in their lives.

Through the power of the Holy Spirit, we can impact hunderes of teens across Oklahoma and north Texas. Join us today as we raise a new generation of leaders!

Conference Talent Quest: Saturday, April 21, 2012

Talent QuestTalent Quest and Excel help IPHC young people develop their ministry gifts and fine art talents for the glory of God. Talent Quest has been around for many years, while Excel is only in it's second year. With these programs, young people from ages 8 to 25 can pursue excellence and gain new ideas from their peers in other churches. Competition takes place on these levels:

  • Junior Talent Quest — ages 8-12, conference level only
  • Teen Talent Quest — ages 13-19, conference level and winners advance to national level
  • Beyond Quest: Excel — ages 20-25, national level only

There are many changes in both programs this year with new categories and new guidelines, specifically concerning copyright issues. Updated guidelines, as well as registration forms, are available here: Talent Quest Downloads. Please note, all registrations must now be accompanied by a Consent Waiver to allow photographs and videos of contestants to be used by the IPHC for promotional purposes.
