What is Lifeline?

Lifeline is the student ministry of Ada Bible Church. Our goal in Lifeline is to help students ground their identity in Jesus. We do this through teaching students from the Bible, providing each student with a small group and an adult leader to mentor them in faith, and through transformational experiences like retreats and mission trips.

Through all of this, our hope is that coming to Lifeline would be hilarious, fun, and life-giving. Our desire is that Lifeline would be a place where every student is known, respected and has a chance to grow in their faith.

Lifeline exists to ground student's identity in Jesus.

We go about this through truth, relationships, and experiences.


Truth

Each week our staff help our students open up the bible and explore what it has to tell them, allowing our students to discover the Bible and how it applies to their every day life.

Relationships

Every student is connected with a caring adult who loves Jesus and a group of other students to share life with!

Experiences

Experiences are an accelerator to learning and growing together! We want our students to enjoy meaningful experiences together whether during a trip, an event, or a night of Lifeline at a campus.
