Daily Living in the Gospel - As the apostle Paul wrote to the churches in Asia (modern day Turkey) during his imprisonment, his primary focus was always the gospel. But for the individuals in these churches, he wasn’t trying to convince them of the truth of the gospel, they already believed! No, he was demonstrating to them that the gospel was not simply belief that Jesus was the Messiah for both Jews and Gentiles, but that the gospel was sufficient to navigate all the circumstances of daily life! How should we approach our relationships with spouses, children, bosses, employees, fellow believers, and strangers? The gospel! How do we stand firm in the midst of pain, suffering, loss, regret, disappointment, and abuse? The gospel! Paul connected the gospel to all of daily life and in this study through the books of Philemon & Ephesians, we will study not only how we can rely on the gospel in daily life, but also why the gospel truly is sufficient for every circumstance we encounter in life.

Starting Point Class - Men and Women
If you were asked, “Why does First Baptist Church of Washington exist?” How would you answer? In this 4 week class, we not only answer this question – To know God, enjoy God and make God known – but we also explain what these really mean and how we arrived at these priorities from the Word of God. So, whether you’re a recent visitor or a long-time member, get to know FBC a little more, and let us get to know you as well. Class starts September 6

Ladies
The Beatitudes - Over the next eight weeks, the ladies’ class will journey through the Beatitudes—the opening words of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. Though brief, these statements contain some of the most powerful and countercultural teaching in all of Scripture. They show us what life in God’s Kingdom looks like and describe the kind of people God is forming us to become. The Beatitudes are not eight optional traits we can pick and choose from, nor are they merely a checklist of spiritual achievements. Together, they paint a picture of Christian character—a portrait of a life being transformed by the grace of God through the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit. As we study these verses together, we’ll discover that the Beatitudes are deeply connected. They build upon one another, shaping us into people who increasingly reflect the heart, character, and life of Jesus. Ultimately, the Beatitudes are not just describing what Christians should be—they are describing who Jesus is, and what He is working to produce in us.
