At First Baptist Church of Pinetop, a Purpose Driven Church, we have adopted a simple plan for helping people GET CONNECTED and GET INVOLVED by growing spiritually, by exploring their gifts for ministry, by discovering their Purpose in Life and fulfilling the Great Commandment and the Great Commission of Jesus Christ.
Join me, "Arizona Jones" on the beautiful Trails of the White Mountains and discover what it means to be a Christian and a member of God's family; experience the excitement of leaning how you can grow spiritually in your daily life; discover why you are valuable to God and to us here at FBC Pinetop and how God can use you in helping others; explore the world in discovering your purpose and mission in life; and join us at the summit as we learn what it means to worship God for all He has done for anyone who will trust Him as the Savior and Lord of their life!
You can begin the adventure through five Life Changing Trails with your guide, "Arizona Jones."
- Membership Trail (CONNECTING)
- Maturity Trail (GROWING)
- Ministry Trail (SERVING)
- Missions Trail (REACHING)
- Magnification Trail (HONORING)
