	FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

“A caring congregation nurturing spiritual growth and demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ.”

Finally, my friends, whatever is true, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Philippians 4:8

Adult Ministries

Living with Integrity

This series, led by Dick Ramsey, is based on the book Integrity in a World of Pretense by Earl Palmer. As Earl Palmer digs into Paul's letter to the Philippians, he uncovers solid principles for steering a steady course through our world of hype, glitz and noise. Paul urges the Philippian Christians to live out their faith "worthy of the gospel." He is urging a style of living that is in keeping with and dependent on the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is this integrity of life as a Christian woman or man that Paul advocates, directly or indirectly, all through this letter.

NOOMA

NOOMA is a series of short films (10-15 minutes) on DVD. Each DVD uses experiences of our lives to teach about the fullness of life through Jesus by tackling issues like forgiveness, discipleship, anger, money, spirituality, and time, and others.

Christian Living is led by class members and is a great choice for those who enjoy lively discussion on a variety of faith topics.
