The Discipleship Ministry aims to fulfill the mandate of “making disciples” by providing members and attendees with an opportunity to be discipled into Christ-like maturity while connecting, growing, and serving together. We achieve this through ongoing Bible studies, HomeGroups, and short-term Equip studies that provide a pathway to spiritual growth and maturity in Christ.
Bible Studies
are ongoing classes that study through books of the Bible. These classes meet on Sunday mornings from 9:00 – 10:15 am. Our ongoing Bible Studies reflect three key components: 1. Teaching the Word of God, 2. Caring for physical and spiritual needs, and 3. Reaching people with the gospel. Jesus said we are to continue in His Word (John 8:31-32). Simply put, you will learn more about the Bible when you participate in these classes.
Equip Pathways
What are Equip Studies?
They are short-term, 8 to 12 week studies that seek to provide a pathway toward maturing in Christ (Colossians 1:28).
Who are Equip Studies for?
Everyone! FBCTV’s goal is to have every adult mature in Christ, and we begin together where you are in your faith journey.
When do Equip Studies meet?
Co-ed studies meet on Sunday mornings from 9:00 to 10:15 a.m., and women’s studies on Wednesday mornings from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m.

HomeGroup Experience
is a great way to participate in a short-term HomeGroup. You will learn what occurs during a HomeGroup meeting: Bible Study, Fellowship, and Prayer. We’d love for you to discover what being part of a HomeGroup at FBCTV means. HomeGroup Experience meets three times a year, each lasting six to eight weeks and taking place at church on Sundays at 9:00 a.m. Register now and experience what a HomeGroup is!
Discover FBCTV Membership Class
Discover who we are, what we believe, and how you can continue to mature in Christ. Since you are considering membership, know that you would join a loving family of believers partnering to “Love God, Love Others, and Reach our World for Christ.” You can attend a three-week class on Sunday evenings at 5:00 pm at the Lindsay’s home to learn more about our church purpose and beliefs. During the classes, we will lay the foundation of what it means to connect and serve here at First Baptist of Tellico Village.
