First Christian Church

First Christian Church of Leisure World teaches from God’s word, the Holy Bible. Most often verse by verse. It is a friendly church that welcomes all visitors.

Message

Leadership is a necessity within any organization, but it really comes to the forefront when that organization is going through rough times. As apostle Peter prepares to end his first epistle in chapter 5:1-4, he lays out some requirements for elders, who are the spiritual leaders of the church. He exhorts them to shepherd the flock of God until the chief shepherd appears. This call for leadership continues to this day and will continue until Christ, the chief shepherd, returns.

Scripture of the Week

“Let the word of Christ richly dwell in your hearts, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts” (Colossians 3:16, NASB).
