Who We Are

  • Our Vision

    Offering Christ from the heart of downtown for an awakening in Southwest Georgia.

  • Our Mission

    To cultivate and equip disciples of Jesus Christ through whole-hearted worship, accountable friendships, compassionate love, and humble service.

  • Our Core Values

    1) Biblically Rooted: The Bible, the written Word of God, is at the center of our life and ministry. We aim to teach, live, and celebrate scripture. 


    2) Faithfully Wesleyan: We are proudly Methodist, heirs of John Wesley. We faithfully hold the orthodox Christian faith in the Wesleyan way.


    3) Whole-life Discipleship: We live our faith in every aspect of our life, in every phase of life - from life to death, and in every phase of spiritual growth - from pre-Christian to sanctification.


    4) Bridging Generations: We treasure connections, fellowship, and investment across the generations. We are a church where people can be at home with people of all ages, and all generations intentionally invest in each other's lives.


    5) Authentic Hospitality: We believe in being genuine and authentic as we welcome people into our individual and shared lives so they can encounter the gracious welcome of God.


    6) Belonging: First Methodist is a true spiritual home, a community where people can let down their gaurd and meet Jesus in the deepest parts of their lives.
