Kingdom Culture
Let's face it. The 20s are puberty for adulthood... There are so many changes that can feel awkward as you navigate your newfound "adult" responsibilities. But are you ready? Are you ready to do so in a world that will perpetually cater to your sin and happily feed your ego? Society so often elevates the arrogant and the proud. Especially among our 20 somethings! And in its wake there are too many young adults floundering in their identity and purpose. If our hearts aren't under holy guard, we may believe the hype...
But how about a young man or woman who continues to abide in the ever faithful love of God? What would it be like for the Kingdom to influence and take over every trend, every workspace, every university, every household? We believe we're seeing it happen even now and it's coming on strong through this generation of young adults who are plugged into bible centered community and empowered by God's Holy Spirit. Come and join us!

About Clint
Not only does Clint have a killer stash, but the man has a beautiful heart for the Lord. He and his wife, McKenzie, lead our young adult ministry. Together they are equipping those in their 20 somethings by fanning the flame in hearts to burn with love for God. Through regular prayer and intercession they remain actively in-tune with God's heart and the Holy Spirit's leadership. Clint is an excellent bible teacher and family man, "mid" as a spikeball athlete, but a primo basketball player. (He could probably dunk on you and make the 3 pointers fall like rain.)
Clint doesn't just shepherd our young adults, but he is also Reliance's "Missional Pastor." Meaning he is helping keep us on track for what we believe God has set before us as a church body.

Mentor Couples
While this is a group to minister specifically to young adults, we would be foolish to write off the generations that have gone before us. Thanks to much of their labor and prayers, we have something to stand on. Our weekly gatherings take place in the homes of these described below. The aim is to bridge the gap of generations and recognize the well-spring discipleship available to us.
1 Timothy 2:2-13.
2 Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate,self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 3 not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full[a] respect. 5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil. 7 He must also have a good reputation with outsiders, so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap.
8 In the same way, deacons[b] are to be worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain. 9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience. 10 They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons. 11 In the same way, the women[c] are to be worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything. 12 A deacon must be faithful to his wife and must manage his children and his household well. 13 Those who have served well gain an excellent standing and great assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.
The aim is to bridge the gap of generations and create avenues for discipleship.
