Next Level

4th - 5th Grade

Next Level Bible Study

Preteens in grades 4 and 5 have the opportunity to grow deeper in their faith at Second. Each week in Next Level, God’s Word is taught to inspire spiritual growth, and guided discussions help connect faith to everyday life and the challenges of growing up. After the Bible Study lesson, students join small groups to reflect on and apply what they’ve learned in meaningful ways.

Next Level Worship

At this age, we encourage kids to attend Next Level for one hour and worship with their family for the other. It’s a meaningful step toward owning their faith and becoming part of the church community.
