Growing Together in Christ
Spiritual growth is more than gaining biblical knowledge. It is becoming more like Christ as His Word shapes what we believe, how we live, and how we love one another.
At First Baptist, we want to help one another grow through Scripture, discipleship, prayer, and the faithful practice of following Christ in everyday life.
the foundation for growth
Rooted in the Word
We believe spiritual growth begins with God's Word. As we study Scripture together, we come to know Christ more deeply, understand His truth, and learn to apply it faithfully to everyday life.
Bible study at First Baptist is simple and relational. We study God's Word, explore biblical teaching together, ask questions, learn from one another, and encourage one another toward greater maturity in Christ.
Women's Bible Study — Mondays, 12:00 PM
A weekly time for women to study God's Word and grow together in faith.
Prayer & Bible Study — Wednesdays, 6:30 PM
We gather as a church family to pray together and study God's Word.
discipleship & mentoring
Growing Alongside One Another
Following Christ was never meant to be done alone. God uses other believers to encourage us, challenge us, pray with us, and help us grow toward greater maturity in Christ.
At First Baptist, we want discipleship to be more than another church program. We want to cultivate relationships where believers can learn from one another, share life together, and intentionally help one another follow Christ faithfully.
"Iron sharpens iron,
and one man sharpens another."
— Proverbs 27:17
the rhythms of discipleship
Practicing the Faith
Spiritual growth doesn't happen by accident. Throughout the Christian life, God has given us practices that keep our hearts and minds focused on Him and help shape us into the likeness of Christ.
Throughout the year, The Practices provides opportunities to explore some of the ordinary disciplines of the Christian life—prayer, Scripture, worship, service, fellowship, and others—and consider how they become part of the regular rhythm of following Christ.
These practices don't earn God's favor. They are ways we intentionally make room in our lives to seek Him, listen to His Word, and grow in faithfulness.
