Let’s face it, we tend to mess up what God intended for our good. Ecclesiastes 7:29 states, “God created people to be virtuous, but they have each turned to follow their own downward path” (NLT). That’s the story of Solomon in the Old Testament. God richly blessed Solomon, but over time Solomon took his eyes off God and became obsessed with what this world had to offer him. As a result, Solomon wrecked his life. His book, Ecclesiastes, warns us not to make the same mistakes he made. As we study it, we’ll see how to live life God’s way, with true meaning and purpose.

Because of Jesus, we have victory and light in the midst of darkness. Join us at First Church next week onsite or online for our normal service times of 8:15, 9:45, & 11:15AM. Whichever you choose, we're so glad to worship with you.  

In late 2021, First Church entered a new season of ministry. Our church family boldly trusted God's calling on us for 100% engagement. We named the journey, "Unstoppable."  Unstoppable is Kingdom expansion rooted in our sincere desire to impact the 918 and beyond with the life-changing message of Jesus. In the last two years, attendance, serving, giving, and most importantly, the number of people baptized at First Church reached an all-time high in our 117-year history. Through Unstoppable generosity, we've been able to support, and in some cases, expand support for ministry partners locally and globally all while expanding our N. Garnett Road campus. We are currently in the largest phase of expansion for the Unstoppable initiative. When it's complete, we will have a larger elementary ministry facility to teach future generations the good news of the gospel.
