ABFs meet every Sunday morning at 9:30 AM. These electives act as the main educational ministry for adults. Our goal is to offer a variety of classes to foster and maintain growth in three crucial relationships: Our relationship with God, Believers, and Unbelievers. To do this, we have a four- track program: Bible track, Theology track, Christian Living track, and Church History track.
TRACK 1: Bible Track.
This track focuses on the exposition of Bible books with some emphasis on practical interpretation. We will attempt to cover each genre of biblical literature during our four year journey: law, history, wisdom/poetry, gospels, epistles and prophecy.
TRACK 2: Theology Track.
The theology track will include topics such as the basics of Christianity, God (His attributes, etc.), Holy Spirit, ethics and philosophy, apologetics, the church, baptist distinctives, and Scriptures.
TRACK 3: Christian Living Track.
This track includes studies on evangelism, marriage and family, money management, leadership, worship, prayer, and missions, etc..
TRACK 4: Church History/Current Events Track.
This track covers topics like Jewish history and culture, Roman history and culture of Bible times, the apostolic fathers, creeds, confessions, the early church, the Reformation, the Great Awakening and American church history, as well as current events.

Small Groups are essential for believers to get connected and to grow. This is a great opportunity to meet new friends and to be challenged in your walk with Christ. The goal of our small group ministry is to provide an environment for spiritual growth, ministry involvement, and outreach. Three groups are offered which focus on prayer, fellowship, and discussing in greater detail the Sunday morning message. The Small Groups meet every Sunday night at 5:30 pm.
Tuesday Morning Bible Study
This ladies group meets from 9:30-11:00 AM each Tuesday morning,
September through May. Kay McKinney leads
this Bible study. Babysitting is provided.
Thursday Evening Bible Study
Cyndi Messer leads this group that meets in the conference room
from 6:00-7:00 PM each Thursday evening.
Babysitting is provided. This Bible study will resume in the fall.
Men's Ministries
Thursday Evening Bible Study will meet downstairs at 6 PM. The desire of this group is to have an atmosphere where men can get to know one another a little better, and have practical discussions about allowing the scripture to impact their daily lives. This Bible study will resume in the fall.

Prayer AXIS
An axis is defined as something an object is centered upon or rotates around. In the same way, our church should be built upon and revolve around prayer. For this reason, we invite you to join our pastors during a group time of focused prayer on Wednesday nights. Ephesians 6:18 tells us to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests...and always keep on praying for all the saints." Since we are commanded to pray with all kinds of prayers and requests, we have divided our "Prayer Axis" points into four segments. If you can't attend all sessions, come for as many as you can.
Adoration 6:00-6:15 PM
During this time, we read a passage from the Word,
respond in prayer, and praise the Lord for Who He is.
Xpression 6:15-6:30 PM
This is the time where we take turns sharing the burdens,
concerns, and requests that are on our hearts.
Intercession 6:30-6:45 PM
In this segment, we divide into smaller groups and
spend time lifting each other’s requests to the Lord.
Spotlight 6:45-7:00 PM
Those who are not in worship choir will
close the night by specifically lifting up selected government officials, missionaries, church leaders, and ministry programs.
Worship Choir
Worship Choir is open to anyone from high school age to adult. Rehearsals are each Wednesday night from 6:45-8:00 PM, with a sound check each Sunday morning at 9 AM.
