Every local church matters. When churches choose cooperation over competition, we can focus on building God's Kingdom, not our own. We are thankful for the network of churches across Tuscaloosa County committed to strengthening one another and pursuing God's Kingdom together.

"Could you make me somebody who sees things in people before they see it in themselves?"

That's a prayer Drew Chapman prayed after God used someone in his life to encourage him toward his calling. While not everyone is called to full-time vocational ministry, each of us has a purpose where God has placed us and gifts He’s given us to accomplish the work He’s prepared for us.

What if someone is waiting for your encouragement to take their next step toward their calling?

The guys took this picture of pick up tonight which went to three wide before we finished!!! God has really blessed!

We are tired but overjoyed!!! One of our leaders came around the corner to see me just a boohooing! She had just prayed with two girls to accept Christ.

We are still working through decisions, but we may have 7 decisions to trust Christ tonight!!!

Keep praying…God ain’t done!

The latest episode of Outside the Walls is here! We sit down for coffee with Drew Chapman, Senior Pastor of FirstTuscaloosa (First Baptist Church Tuscaloosa), at The Alamite in the heart of downtown Tuscaloosa.

In our conversation, we explore God's leading in his life, from art student and entrepreneur to pastor, how faithful believers invested in him along the way, and why local churches have a responsibility to identify and encourage the gifts God places in others.
