FSBCS Student Ministry

What We Believe

Our Core
Truth: we seek across-the-board integration of historic and classic Christian teaching into groups, lives, and activities.
The Bible is true, exciting, and meaningful for daily living
God as Father, Son, and Spirit in one essence is perfect love
Jesus is the eternal Son come in human flesh and personality
Salvation is eternal through personal commitment to Jesus as Lord, available because of His death, burial, and resurrection
Baptism is a beautiful symbol of faith and expression of obedience
Communion is a humbling portrayal of the believers’ unity with Christ’s Passion and spiritual body
Church is the body of local and/or universal believers through which Christ reveals His own love and care to the world
Kingdom is temporarily in the hearts of and revealed through believers, ultimately outward, eternal, and heavenly after Christ’s Second Coming
Heaven and Hell are the two everlasting destinies for those in Christ and outside of Him, respectively

Our Purpose
Becoming passionate followers of Jesus Christ.
Achieving this purpose involves participating in an Acts 2 People Movement Model.
Genuine worship (“Magnifying God”) happens through personal fellowship with God and his people (“Making Connections”), serious discipleship (“Maturing Believers”), authentic service (“Ministering to Others”) and lifestyle evangelism (“Multiplying our Faith”).

Our Philosophy
The one true God is knowable through a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Worship is to be prayerful, celebrative, and centered on scriptural truths. Worship also includes giving oneself away meeting the needs of others in order to expand the Kingdom.
