• Don Johnson, Associate Pastor, Youth Co-Director
  Don was saved in May 1986 at the age of 28. He was called into youth ministry at the age of 30 and has been working with youth ever since. "Even though teenagers and young adults are living in a downward spiraling society, I believe the majority still want to do good and are searching for leaders to set the examples and help them along the right path. My goal as a teacher is to help them grow close to Jesus and hopefully lead them away from the mistakes I made as a youth of their age. I believe in the Scriptures where in Proverbs 22:6 it says, 'Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.' That is our goal at Bible Believers for every youth that has been entrusted to us. I hope and pray you will join us soon in worshiping God."
  
  
• Keith Gibbs, Youth Co-Director
  "In 1976 I accepted Jesus into my life, and I haven't been the same since. I had always strived to do what's right, but there have been many times when I had to ask for forgiveness and start over. In addition to leading the youth during Sunday School, I also help with Wednesday night J.A.M. time (Jesus And Me) where the youth study the Bible and share their thoughts and feelings with the group. God has been good to us, and He continues to bless us."
