How do you review a church? The pastor is great from the pulpit, they use a lot of videos, and…read morethere's a variety of music styles at different services. The main campus is at 7th & Rangeline, but FPBC is a big church. I think they stay that way because they work really hard to continually reach out to people--not just their own people, but people in the community as well. And they're innovative; they have a campus in Carthage and plan to open another near Stone's Corner next month. If you're intimidated by the size of the main campus, you might want to try one of the satellites. They feature live music, with a pre-recorded copy of the sermon on DVD as well as coffee shops in the foyer. (Free donuts!)

Everyone was friendly and seemed so excited. I understand the staff is all new, within the last year. The pastor is a great speaker but the message goes straight to the heart. Very concerned about people's spiritual condition. The music leader-man, what a gifted voice and heart to worship. They had lots of people on stage, mostly contemporary with like a mini orchestra. sax, violin, trumpet, guitars, drums, etc. A huge facility that seats1000, but maybe 300 there. I understand it's like doubled in the last year. Also Kids liked the childrens and student programs. Obviously a really big congregation at one time, and now rebuilding. The place needs a little remodeling, but for spiritual growth, I'd highly recommend it. Wouldnt be suprised if it doubles again in another year.
