Re-Building a Christ-shaped Life

If you take the time to look, you never know what you might find. If you get off the interstate and drive the old highways, you’ll pass through mostly forgotten towns and see… well, you never know.

This is fallback content to display for user agents that do not support the video tag. Beginning on April 19, our worship services will be focused and themed around who we are as the Church.

COVID-19 Update 03.19.2020

Greetings from First Baptist Church! Social distancing can be isolating and… boring, if we’re being honest. In this email, we wanted to give you some resources and ideas how to keep sane while we all keep each other safe.
