What To Expect

Welcome to First Christian Church! In order that your first visit with us be a positive experience, here are a few things you might like to know about our church.

Worship Services

Here are First we have two services that are designed to be identical so that whenever you choose to worship with us you will feel right at home.

  8:00am @ Sanctuary
 10:30am @ Sanctuary

A truly blended service, worship at First contains traditional and contemporary elements that bring the generations together in worship to our King. No matter your worship tastes, you can expect a familiar feel.

Both services last just at an hour, and nursery services are available for both.

Biblical Preaching

Here at First we put a heavy emphasis on Biblical preaching. However, that phrasing is thrown around a lot these days, so here's what we mean:

Biblical preaching is the delivering of God's Word to His people in a way that is both faithful to Scripture and relevant to the Church.

Each week, we deliver messages straight out of Scripture that are meant to encourage believers, bring searchers in contact with a Jesus that loves them, and inspire further study of God's Word. We say that Scripture is the highest authority on doctrine and conduct—this is reflected in our preaching.

The Lord's Supper

We take communion each week at First, and we welcome anyone who trusts Jesus as their Lord and Savior and has stepped in obedience to Him through baptism.

Baptism

Here at First we emphasize the original understanding of immersion—full-body submersion—in baptism. In our Greek and early church studies, this seems to be the mode that Jesus speaks of and that the Acts Church uses, so it is the mode that we use here. However, we welcome those from traditions where other modes are used.
