You become a Christian by accepting Jesus as personal Savior and Lord. To make Jesus your Lord means that you surrender control of your life to him. You make a commitment of your life to him, to serve and love him with all your heart, mind, and strength. Your Christian life begins with total commitment. And that’s how it continues.

All your commitments are demonstrated by your actions and habits. More than what you say, what you do reveals what’s important to you. Want to look at the strength of your everyday commitment to Christ? Look at your actions, your regular routine.

That’s why at First Baptist Church, we encourage members to accept the Triple 2 Challenge. It’s a commitment to examine each week’s routine in light of the highest priority—to Love and Serve God. The challenge is simple. We all aim to spend at least 2 hours every week actively worshiping God, usually at one of the church’s 3 weekly worship gatherings. We also strive to spend 2 hours a week in personal Bible study. One could be private, but we encourage the other hour to be spent eithier in Disciple Life Class or Purpose Driven Life Class.  We devote the other two hours of the weekly challenge in service to others, doing something good for a neighbor in the name of Jesus. Our church’s goal is to serve God "through worship, teaching, and everyday acts of service."   The Triple 2 Challenge is our way of keeping this purpose and our priorities in place. It gives individuals a way to aim for and measure a weekly commitment to loving and serving Christ.
Commit to the Triple Two!
