What do you believe?

We believe that we're here to bring glory to God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. We passionately desire to worship Jesus Christ, to instruct and encourage Christians to become like Christ and to share Jesus, our savior and Lord, with the world.

Should I bring a Bible?

Yes. But we also include all of the text on the screens for your convenience.

Your campus looks big--how do I know where I should go?

Feel free to ask any of our members or greeters or stop by an information booth and tell them what you're looking for. We have greeters and information booths at every entrance. The buildings are also labeled with large letters.
- Building A contains our Worship Center and some senior adult classrooms.
- Building B contains our Administrative Offices and Chapel.
- Building C (at the back, NE corner of the campus) contains our Garage for Students, Great Hall, and Kitchen.
- Building D (at the back NW corner of the campus) contains our Children's Event Center and First Baptist Academy. The second floor is primarily Adult and Children's Classrooms.
I like FB Forney, how do I join?

Joining is simple! During each service, Bro. Jim will extend an invitation for new members and new believers. Simply walk down to one of the staff members present and inform them that you would like to join. You will be taken to a separate room to complete the process. Also, once a quarter, we have a new member's class called Explore First Forney; check the worship bulletin, look on the website calendar or watch the screen announcements for the upcoming dates.

Grow

As members of the body of Christ, we all share a special relationship and significant role together. You are needed in the church, and your opportunities for service are unlimited. The greatest fulfillment in life comes from your discovery of God’s plan and purpose for your life in His church and from your obedience to serve Him.

There are three questions that every Christian must answer when it comes to fulfilling God’s Great Commission:

Why should I participate? Because Jesus called us to make disciples of all nations...
Whom should I tell? Everybody, not just some. All nations...
How do I start? Share your story!

If you have any questions about your Next Steps as a Christian, please contact the Church Office. In the meantime, we have put together a booklet that might help.
