Charles Spurgeon once quipped: “Visit many good books, but live in the Bible.” The leadership at FBC believes that there is no substitute for studying God’s Word. As we corporately gather Sunday after Sunday our prayer is for God’s people to dig deeper into the Bible throughout the week using sound, helpful tools in their further personal study.
