Facilities

Contact Stephen Johnson

The first impression a visitor has of FBBC is not the preaching, the auditorium or even the ushers at the front door. The first impression a new person has of FBBC are its facilities. Although the "spiritual" may take precedence over the "physical" in the mind of the church body, from the perspective of those who may visit, the facilities, and how they are maintained say a lot about the membership and the Lord they serve.

The Lord has blessed us with a beautiful facility and it is our responsibility to by good stewards with this property and building. The continual cleaning and maintenance of the facilities are an ever increasing challenge that can only be met by an army of volunteers. Their sacrifice creates a bridge to reach those who need to hear the Gospel.

Discipleship

Contact Mark Brown

Discipleship is, by definition, the "communication of life." A disciple is simply one who is a "learner."

Discipleship is the 3-year process that Jesus Christ completed in the life of his disciples that brought them to spiritual maturity. It is discipleship that prepares a disciple for the ministry God has for their life.

One-on-one discipleship is at the very core of FBBC. Our goal is that every member of FBBC become a minister. This starts with discipleship. God has designed this unique process to bring believers to spiritual maturity, and it is the responsibility of every believer to invest their life spiritually in the life of another.

There is a constant need for mature believers to disciple others, therefore FBBC offers training in the philosphy and implementation of a 16-lesson disipleship ministry. Belivers who are wanting to disciple other, as well as those desiring to be discipled, are encouraged to become a part of this ministry.

Requirements

    • Faithful in Attendance
    • Desire to Learn
    • Willing to be Accountable

Connections Ministry
