The Fruit Tree Leadership Initiative (FTLI) was started October of 2024 as a way for Youth to get involved in the global church by learning what it means to be a leader while gaining valuable experience. The initiative is paired with the Abide Youth Ministry, whose mission is to abide in the love of Jesus and His word,  glorify The Father, bear fruit, and prove to be His disciples. (John 15:1-11). FTLI was born out of Abide Youth’s objective: To establish a Biblical worldview before High School graduation that will impact their eternity. Coming alongside this objective, FTLI is the medium through which young leaders can learn to implement their Biblical worldview in leadership positions.  Believers' lives should not be divided by the secular and spiritual; rather, the Gospel should influence their entire lifestyle. Each believer is called to a vocational ministry. FTLI is a vocational ministry. Frequently, people are told to leave their beliefs at home; work is not the place for spirituality. The average person spends 90,000 hours working, meaning each vocation is an outlet for getting plugged into ministry. Youth who are a part of FTLI will be encouraged to give up the secular/spiritual model and consider a life entirely focused on their relationship with Christ, allowing Him to work through their lives in each field they enter.
