Biblical Training Center

Biblically-based training designed to strengthen your faith and build God's church by equipping you for service.

Welcome to Biblical Training Center!

The Biblical Training Center is part of the Discipleship Ministry at FBC. Through a series of intentional classes, our goal is to establish a solid biblical foundation that fosters spiritual growth and deepens our relationship with Jesus Christ. We want to see lives transformed through God's Word and help people to apply Scripture in meaningful, lasting ways.

Upcoming December Classes: 12/7 & 12/14

9:00 AM - Real Marriage, Real Mercy

Hunter Mayo

Paul describes marriage as being much like Christ with His bride, the Church. In our fast-paced lives, we can easily become sidetracked and allow our marriages to take second place.
In this two-week class, we will explore several core principles for maintaining a strong and healthy marriage. We'll consider God’s purpose for marriage, our role as ambassadors of the gospel within our marriages, and other key principles for grounding your marriage in mercy.

10:45 AM - Discover Your Mission

Scott Santmier

You were created with a divine mission, a purpose breathed into you by God Himself. It’s in discovering and living out that mission that your days gain meaning, your work gains purpose, and you begin to change the world for Christ as you are being transformed by Him.
Your mission lies where your deepest passion meets the world’s greatest need. There, in that intersection, you find the reason you were placed on this earth, to live and speak the gospel with boldness and love, reaching those who have yet to encounter the truth of Christ’s gift of salvation and new life.

Bible Study Methods

Bo Spires, Joe Rossi, Tim Oakleaf -- Room 2-1

In our present day, there is a dire need for believers to be equipped to "handle accurately the Word of truth" so God's message can be understood and communicated rightly (2 Tim. 2:15). Bible Study Methods is a Starting Points class designed to equip believers with the essential skills for interpreting the Scriptures. You will learn simple principles of observation, interpretation, and application using a variety of study methods.  Join us as we explore powerful Bible study techniques that will transform the way you read and apply God’s Word, so that you can confidently study for the rest of your life.

1 Peter

Scott McManigle, Josh Patterson -- Room 2-2

Join us for a journey through 1st Peter, where we’ll explore how God’s grace empowers us to endure trials, live with purpose, and reflect Christ in a broken world. Discover the hope, strength, and identity found in the “true grace of God” (1 Peter 5:12).

10:45 AM

Discipleship Foundations

Tim Sanford, Drew Sanford, Hunter Mayo -- Room 2-1

What does it take in order to grow in Christ? In this class, we will look at the foundations that contribute the most to that maturing process. We will grow in our confidence that God can use each of us in the life of another person as we help them grow, even as we are growing too. We don’t have to be perfect but rather simply maturing in the Lord ourselves to be used by God in the life of another. Come join us as we discover what contributes to a healthy, mature disciple of Christ.

Ephesians

Greg Perkins, Ben Sanford -- Room 2-2

This class delves into the transformative message of Ephesians, a letter that reveals the incredible heights of God's grace and the power of unity in Christ. We will explore key themes such as our identity in Christ, the spiritual blessings we possess, the church as the body of Christ, and living in light of what God has done. This class will be a verse-by-verse study of this important Pauline epistle.

Why Does Doctrine Matter?

June 1 - August 24

Taught by:
Mike Thomas, Tim LeMay, Joe Houser, Greg Perkins, Jim Billman, Scott Crowley, Scott Newlin, Hunter Mayo, Jason Robertson, John Van Drunen, Curtis Pinkston
In a world filled with a constant flow of alternative beliefs and ideas, it’s easy to become uncertain about the truth. What we understand about God deeply impacts our daily lives and our walk with Him. In this class, we will explore the importance of sound doctrine— clear, biblical truth that forms the foundation for spiritual growth and stability. We’ll examine how a solid understanding of God’s Word helps protect us from being ‘carried away by every wind of doctrine’ and equips us to stand firm in our faith. Through studying essential doctrines, we’ll gain a deeper knowledge of God that strengthens our relationship with Him and guides us through the complexities of life. (June 1 - August 24)
