The mission for each person at FaithPoint Church, whether child, student, or adult, is the same – “Being followers of Christ who make followers of Christ for the glory of his name.” (Matthew 28:18-20).
FAITHPOINT ADULTS
ADULT BIBLE STUDIES (ABS) AND EQUIP NIGHTS
For adults, we offer classes on various topics each Sunday morning in ABS from 9:00-9:45am and on Equip Nights (generally the 1st and 3rd Sunday evenings of the month) from 5:30-7:00pm.
In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus gave his followers the mission to make disciples; in order to make disciples, Jesus said we must teach people to observe all that he commanded. Thus, one aspect of discipleship is life-long growth in the knowledge of our Lord (2 Peter 3:18). But the goal of FaithPoint Church’s Adult Bible Fellowships (ABF) and Equip Nights isn’t just head knowledge; but knowledge that results in love for God and sacrificial love for others (Philippians 1:9-11). Jesus summed up the whole Christian life like this: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:37-39). With Jesus’ instruction in mind, we break our classes into three simple divisions: Head, Heart, and Hands. Here’s what we mean:
Head: Learn the story of the whole Bible and how it shapes your beliefs. Head classes introduce Bible doctrine, Bible overview, church history, and church essentials.
Heart: Focus on growing your love for the Lord and for your neighbors. Heart classes cover the spiritual disciplines, family and relationships, and finances.
Hands: Learn how to use your strengths and gifts to serve God and love others. Hands classes cover evangelism, counseling, teaching, and apologetics.
Classes utilize a variety of formats including lecture, video, and book studies. Participants may be asked to cover the cost of books.
