They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.  While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed light lightening stood beside them.  In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground,but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?”  He is not here; he as risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: “The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.”  Luke 24:1-7

Maundy Thursday Service begins at 7:30 pm.

Who Am I? Discovering Who You Are in Christ

How would you answer that question?

We often define our identity in terms of our roles in life, such as your family relationships or career choice. It is also tempting to define ourselves by the world’s standards of beauty, money, power, and popularity. Identity is a major issue. It informs how we view ourselves and the world around us. Too often, unfortunately, we find our identity in things that are doomed to fail us. We will find true joy, peace, and fulfillment when we find our identity in Christ.

Join us at First Church during Lent as we study what the Bible says about us and discover who you are in Christ.

Series runs March 10 – April 7.  We are located at 200 W. Bremen St. in New Knoxville, OH

Join Sundays, February 3 – April 14 for a NEW bible study Jesus Among Secular Gods written by Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale.

We will be studying the secular prevailing worldviews such as atheism,  scientism, pluralism and many more that are drastically different than what Jesus preached.

This study will seek to help us as Christ-followers to engage and have meaningful conversations with people that believe in these secular worldviews.

This study will be an 11-week bible study led by Jake Breitigan on Sundays at 10:15 am in the Ministry Center.  All are welcome!

Questions sometimes arise as you are listening to the sermon on Sunday mornings or reading a passage in the Bible.
