"X" is an abbreviation for Christ in Greek, and it also signifies a Christian. "Factor" is "the difference". Since Christ is the difference in our lives, we can make a difference in the world around us by seeking, serving, and sharing the love of Jesus. We as a ministry want to be students who "Make the Difference".

X-Factor is a purpose driven ministry for high school students at Immanuel. Our ministry is based on a campus model, in which students are organized into four campuses by geographic location of their high school or residence. A Campus Director oversees each campus. Within the campus structure, students are organized into small groups of 5-10 members. We utilize these groups as part of our strategy to reach and disciple students.
