Learning to Love as Jesus Loved
At Fairfield Baptist Church, we believe small groups are not an optional extra but crucial to our spiritual health. Acts 2:42–47 gives us a compelling vision: believers devoted to the apostles’ teaching, to fellowship (koinonia), to shared meals, and to prayer—and “the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.”
That kind of “white‑knuckled” devotion to Christ overflows into deep love for His people. It looks like sharing life, carrying each other’s burdens, practicing whole‑church pastoral care, and growing together in awe of God.

Love in action
When a cyclone rolls across our country, we’re abruptly reminded that so much of life is out of our control. Yet in weeks like this, Psalm 91 speaks more loudly than ever. It holds together more of God’s promises of protection than almost any other chapter in Scripture. But what does it truly mean to find refuge under His wings? This isn’t about living in a bubble free from trouble; it’s about discovering a deeper truth: nothing can ultimately separate us from His love. Join us as we explore the profound comfort and strength found in Psalm 91.

Three Great Events: The Easter Story That Doesn’t End
When we think about Easter, two monumental events typically come to mind: the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and His resurrection from the dead. But what if there’s a third event we should be celebrating? It’s the promised return of Jesus Christ, the rapture, when believers will meet Him in the clouds. This isn’t just theological speculation; it’s the hope that anchors our faith. Together, the sacrificial death, the victorious resurrection, and the glorious return form the complete narrative of our salvation story. Discover how these three great events shape our faith and give us hope for the future!
