A NOTE FROM PASTOR RONNY…

It's time to welcome several things: time change, warmer weather, and spring break. I'm excited to turn the corner and leave winter behind. 

At the end of March, we'll welcome eight more pastors to our campus. I'm hosting another pastors' conference on March 31-April 1. 

These pastors are coming from several different states. God gave me a passion to invest in other pastors years ago. I thank the deacon body and the church for your support. God is using us to make a kingdom difference. One of our church-wide goals for 2025 is to invest in other churches and pastors. 

During the retreat, we'll cover the following topics: 

• A Pastor's Health. We'll talk about physical, relational, financial, mental, and spiritual health. Healthy churches require healthy pastors.  

• A Pastor's Marriage. The enemy wants to steal, kill, and destroy a pastor's marriage. I invite a guest speaker to lead this session.  

• A Pastor's Partners. Deacons are ministry partners. I love our deacons. I welcome several of our church's deacon chairmen to share in this session. 

• A Pastor's Enemy. God desires for pastors to start well, serve strong, and finish faithful. We'll talk about how to overcome the enemy. 

Who are the participants at the next pastors' retreat?

As we prepare for the retreat and the arrival of these servants, I invite you to pray for them, their families, and their churches. Specifically, please pray for:

1. Family Members. Pray for their wives and families during their absence, that they would experience peace and protection.

3. Safe Travels. Pray for safe travels as they travel to and from our campus.
4. New Relationships. Pray for the formation of meaningful new relationships that will extend beyond the retreat.

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS BEGINNING MARCH 19, 2025

WEDNESDAY NIGHT GROWTH GROUPS

6:00-7:15pm  |  Cost: $10

• The Meaning of Marriage - Bryce and Karen Powers - Room 2225 FH
  Modern culture would have you believe that everyone has a soul mate, that romance is the most important part of a successful marriage, that marriage does not mean "'til death do us part" but merely lasts as long as personal needs are being met, and that when serious differences arise, divorce is the best solution. However, all of these modern-day assumptions miss what marriage is truly about. Join Bryce and Karen Powers as they work through The Meaning of Marriage by Timothy Keller.

• 8 Money Milestones - Marshall and Beth Biter - Room 2208 Parlor
  Based on Art Rainer’s 8 Money Milestones, Marshall and Beth Biter discuss biblical financial principles with individuals and couples. Join them on the path to financial health and generous living. A milestone is an important marker on a journey. You can reach financial peace as you reach each milestone on your financial journey. Learn how to handle money God’s way!

• Prepare Your Heart for God’s Word (Part Two) - Steve and Rachel Megyesi - Room 2232 FH (Available for those that completed Part One)
  In the second book of the Navigator’s 2:7 Series, Deepening Your Roots in God’s Family, you will complete exercises that strengthen your spiritual foundation through enriching Bible study, Scripture memory, and group interaction. Join Steve and Rachel Megyesi as they guide your group in deepening your personal Christian life, exploring approaches to sharing your faith, and discovering fresh ways to experience extended time alone with God.

• Luke in the Land - Tabitha Dowdy - Original Fellowship Hall
  Join Women’s Ministry Director Tabitha Dowdy in this seven-session study on the Gospel of Luke, written by Kristi McLelland. This study will challenge the way you read the accounts of Jesus through teaching videos filmed on location in Israel—Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Gethsemane, Jerusalem, and the road to Emmaus. Along the way, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how Jesus, the Messiah, brought His kingdom to earth for everyone.

• 1, 2, 3 John - James Sanders - Room 2223 FH
  Join James Sanders for an Exposition Commentary study through 1, 2, and 3 John, written by Daniel L. Akin. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, this study presents key passages in an accessible and applicable way. You will learn to see Christ throughout Scripture and be encouraged by the devotional nature of this exposition.

• Women in the Word - Debbie Farrell - Room 2230 FH
  We all know it’s important to study God’s Word, but sometimes it’s hard to know where to start. A lack of time, emotionally driven approaches, and past frustrations can erode our resolve to grow in our knowledge of Scripture. Join Debbie Farrell in studying Women of the Word by Jen Wilkin. This study is designed to help Christian women stay focused and sustain their passion while reading the Bible.

Sign up at fbct.org/growthgroups.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT GROUPS

6:00-7:15pm | No Cost or Registration

• Revival and Spiritual Awakening (Large Group) - Pastor Ronny - Grace Worship Center
  Has God’s fire gone out? Join Pastor Ronny as we explore what God says about revival and spiritual awakening. This Bible study will ignite a passion in your soul for a fresh encounter with God. Throughout the pages of the Bible, the movement of God is revealed. His people drifted and sinned, leading to an urgent need for spiritual renewal. History unfolds many glorious examples of God’s activity, too. Is revival needed in our day? If so, will the Lord do it now? Let’s come together and ask the Lord to revive us again. May we experience a fresh movement of God, a downpour of His Holy Spirit! We hope you’ll join us for this timely study.

• Students - Cole McCartney - Student Space
  NextGen Pastor Cole McCartney will be looking at the life of David. If you are a student in grades 6 - 12, join other students, Cole, and student leaders for an inspiring time of worship, fellowship, and teaching.

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” (Mark 12:29-31, ESV)
