The most influential
group in any church are the adults. They are the ones who touch the lives of
every person in the community. That is why First Baptist Church Madison has
a strong emphasis on adult ministry. The following areas of ministry help
adults in their growth.
Sunday School is at the
center of growth and ministry for adults. Adults are encouraged to be in
small group Bible studies on Sunday and during the week. These Bible studies
are designed to help them grow in their Christian life. It is also designed
so the individual or families will have a group that is responsible to help
meet ministry needs.
