This ministry centers on developing and fostering a family ministry that focuses on the spiritual health of the family unit as a whole, with a particular emphasis on families with teenagers. An important goal of such a ministry is to supplement and aid the parent’s own ministry to their children. To accomplish this task, OBC molds this ministry toward building relationships between and among the family unit (including parents, children, and youth), minister, volunteers and the local church.
In short, relational ministry reflects a key foundation to this ministry's philosophy and methodology. Furthermore, this foundation is determined by the theological commitment to the Great Commission (discipleship), with the ultimate goal of families growing in their relationship with Christ.
Ultimately, we at OBC desire to fulfill the Great Commission within the context of the youth ministry. In other words, we desire to see each individual come to a saving knowledge of Christ, growing in their relationship with Christ, and becoming disciple-makers themselves.
