Sunday School isn't just for kids! At Trinity Baptist Church, we
believe that you never outgrow the need to immerse yourself in God's
word. The Apostle Paul instructs us to "arm" ourselves with the Word:
"Therefore
put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you
may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything,
to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your
waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your
feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace."
Ephesians 6:13-15 (NIV)
We look forward to having you
and your family join us in Bible study at 9:45 a.m. each Sunday
morning. Our classes are located in both our Main Building (Building A)
and the Family Fellowship Center (Building B). You can download
building floor plans below.

A Battle to fight. An Adventure to live. A Beauty to rescue. This is what a man longs for. This is what makes him come alive. Look at the films men love. For that matter, look at the dreams of little boys, the games they play. There is something fierce, passionate, and wild in the heart of every man. That is how he bears the image of God.
God designed men to be dangerous. Simply look at the dreams and desires written in the heart of every boy: To be a hero, to be a warrior, to live a life of adventure and risk. Sadly, most men abandon those dreams and desires - aided by a Christianity that feels like nothing more than pressure to be a nice guy. It is no wonder that many men avoid church, and those who go are often passive and bored to death.
This is a message about the recovery and release of a man's heart - his passions, which he has been given by God. To take that adventure, join one of the upcoming Biblically-based studies from 6:00-9:00 p.m.:
Monday evenings – Led by Greg Gomes in his home (begins March 10th)
Thursday evenings – Led by Andy McCorkle in Garen McDonald’s home (begins March 13th)
Copies of the book, Wild at Heart, by John Eldridge, will be available in the Trinity foyer for $5.00. You are also encouraged to purchase the Wild at Heart Field Manual (workbook) which is available at most Christian bookstores for approximately $15.00.
