Ken Turner has been in full-time youth ministry since 1987. After twenty-one years of full-time youth ministry Ken Turner established a ministry in 2008 with a key focus on reaching high-risk youth in the community of Indianapolis, Indiana. The result was an immediate invitation to develop key programs in the Marion County Juvenile Detention Center. Approximately 2000 youth are detained each year in the MCJDC. They key programs our ministry has developed are: The Man Up study for teen boys who are “fatherless.” 80-90% of the young men that participated in the weekly study were “fatherless” and many others were being raised by a “disengaged father” so they expressed a great need to understand God’s plan and purpose for them as young men. The Mentor Outreach Team for troubled youth. Recruiting, training and managing a team of adults in the community to become engaged as mentors to troubled youth. High Impact Parenting is our outreach to parents of teens. Our parent outreach provides training and support for parents of teens and pre-teens from a Biblical foundation.
