Singles Ministry

If you are a young single adult, in college or starting a career, the singles ministry will help you to grow spiritually as you learn more about God and spend time with other Christian singles. Our singles meet on Sunday mornings at 9:30 and Wednesday evenings at 6:30 p.m. for Bible study and fellowship.

If you would like to know more about ministry and fellowship opportunities for singles at FBCJ, contact Steve Barrios by phone 615-400-4513 or email.


SUNDAY MORNING BIBLE STUDY

Collegiate
Join us for a discussion-driven Bible study on Sunday mornings called Collegiate. It is part of Lifeway's Threads offerings, and we believe you will find it to be fresh, engaging and relevant. (Note: Despite what the name implies, it's not just for college students. The studies cover a wide variety of subject matter, relevant to all young adults.)

Collegiate is presented in a magazine format that provides a refreshing combination of Bible study and feature articles centered on biblical truth and issues. With biblical depth and practical advice for the realities of daily life, students will be challenged to study God's Word, make a difference in the world, and deepen their walk with Christ. Collegiate’s daily devotionals give students the opportunity to stay connected with the topic of their Bible study throughout the week and encourage the disciplines of daily Bible reading and prayer.

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS


A Call to Die book cover

On Wednesdays we have embarked on a journey of fasting from the world and feasting on God. Join us at 6:30 p.m. in Room 121.

Death. For many, the very mention of the word can conjure feelings of fear and uncertainty. In the Christian life, we are called to pursue a daily death as though our lives depend on it. The Scriptures are filled with such paradoxes. To be set free, you must become a slave. To be filled, you must hunger and thirst. To become greater, you must become less. And the hardest of all … to live, you must die. This is what the apostle Paul meant when he declared, “To live is Christ, and to die is gain … ”

A Call to Die, by David Nasser, focusesg on what it means to live for Christ by daily dying to self. It is an intensive devotional, beckoning the reader to dare define Christ's radical call. Full of raw honesty and relentless passion, this forty day journey is not for the faint of heart, but for the one who longs to answer the call — the call to die.
