Matthew Wilbanks is the Youth Minister at Trinity Baptist Church.
My name is Matthew Wilbanks and I am excited to minister to your students and equip parents to better disciple their children. We must work together to create families that are grounded in Scripture. God has called me to minister to students through a three-pronged approach. First, I’m passionate about teaching them how to understand and apply the Bible. I believe that through the Holy Spirit, students can learn to discern truth and navigate the craziness of life by grounding themselves in Scripture. Second, I aim to meet students in their everyday lives whether at school events or around town. I want students and their parents to know they are loved and cared about. Finally, I want to work past the misconception that a Christian life is dull. I desire for students to experience the joy and blessings God offers, seeing God’s beauty in all of life. This student ministry will be grounded in constant prayer and diligent study of God’s Word. My goal is to guide students and their parents in a way that enables them to bring praise, glory, and honor to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In my free time, I enjoy any type of sports (especially soccer), reading, interacting with people, and working to better understand the world and how God impacts it.
