Jason and Amee Dukes lead this ministry to students 6th through 12th grade at Freedom River Church.  Different childhoods give these two ministers a combined dynamic for understanding and relating to youth from all walks of life, and their love for God provides them with the spiritual focus needed to impact youth with the Gospel.  They know teens’ needs for friendship and acceptance among their peers, but they also know the immeasurable value of encouraging youth toward a meaningful relationship with God and the courage to be different than their peers.  Along with a team of volunteers, they work together to call forth, from every young person, the potential they believe God has placed in each one.

The teenage years are such a critical age for young people to discover God's purpose for their lives and begin cultivating a more mature relationship with Him.  In addition, young people face strong cultural and peer pressures to participate in activities that are contrary to the things of God, so we feel that it is imperative to offer them loving support, Godly counsel, and spiritual direction.  Since this is true, everything we do with students is in an effort to provide these very things, planting seeds of truth and courage and power in the next generation.

Message from our leadership team to students:

This ministry is about making God real in your life and helping you find HIS purpose for you. We’re all about rooting you in the truth of God’s Word and encouraging you to believe that you can make a difference in your community.  T2F challenges the status quo, tears down walls, and seeks to build lasting relationships, so…come on in!
