Parenting Teens

As the primary faith developers of their children, parents may find that raising their teenagers in the Christian faith and in today’s culture is a challenging journey. There are the blessed moments, milestones, triumphs and joys. Along the way, there are also the feelings of confusion, frustration and anxiety.

The youth ministries at St. John seek to equip parents navigating through these years. In addition to the ministry opportunities provided by St. John for students, below are online tools that assist today's parents with raising teenagers in today’s culture.
