First Baptist Covington Youth Ministry LIFT Student Ministry serves to advance the vision and values of First Baptist by sharing the gospel and making disciples of the next generation. Through all of our regular meetings and special events, our goal is to present the gospel, help students to grow and thrive in God’s Word, draw families into strong discipleship, and enjoy the incredible blessing of fellowship and community. We offer lots of opportunities for students to connect, including Sunday Morning Bible Study groups at 9:45 am in our Education Building. Our main weekly gathering time, called LIFT, is offered on Wednesday nights from 6:00-7:30 pm for Middle and High Schoolers. LIFT is centered around God’s Word, and while we may play some wild games or just find interesting ways to create unique memories together, the main goal of the evening is to worship together, learn about the truth of the Bible, and be challenged afterward in small groups.”

Sermons over time
Every audio sermon week across the years we have — a filled cell is a week with an upload, darker blue means richer topics. A steady weekly cadence shows as a solid band across years.
LessMore·no upload·known, not transcribed
Each cell is one week · darker blue = richer topics (clean, sermon-only audio scores higher) · pale = thin, faint = no upload · gold outline = known, not yet transcribed · red outline = broken/failed file · uploaded in 31 of 328 weeks across the span (9%).
Video released
Weeks with a video upload (YouTube or livestream). These aren't transcribed, so this only marks presence — no topic coloring.

Turn your video into a podcast
It looks like First Baptist Covington has shifted from audio to video. Divining can turn the video you’re already posting into a hosted podcast — we handle the audio, transcript, and feed; you just list it once. See what Divining does for churches → or ask us to set it up.
