Discipleship

Our Discipleship Process

Mature disciples worship Christ, walk with Christ, and work for Christ.
We emphasize a quality of discipleship, not a quantity of disciples.

WORSHIP CHRIST  Experience the sufficiency and express the supremacy of Christ through a lifestyle of worship.
WALK WITH CHRIST – Faithful reading of God’s Word, prayer, and fellowship with other believers in Small Groups.
WORK FOR CHRIST – Minister to one another and serve in the capacity each person has been gifted with.

Small Groups

Small Groups are regular times of meeting together where the Bible is opened, lives are shared, and prayer and accountability takes place. All of our small groups are cross-generational, a balance of male and female, married and singles and various life stages. We believe this most likely resembles the early church in Acts. We currently have 12 small groups spread across the Northern Virginia area.

Church membership is not required to be in a Small Group and groups are always open.

Safety is our priority!

Fairfax Bible Church is proud to partner with Ministry Safe. Ministry Safe is a trusted, third-party organization that equips churches with training, screening, and policies designed to protect children, students, and volunteers. Their resources help create a safe, accountable environment while reducing risk and promoting best practices in ministry settings. For more information, please click HERE. If you have any questions, please contact operations@fairfaxbible.org.

Children's Ministry

We believe discipleship starts early! That’s why we offer dedicated classes for kids during the second half of our worship service.

Each Sunday, your kids will enjoy singing songs that are directly from God’s Word. (You can find and purchase the full collection of songs that we sing by going to the Seeds Kids Worship website.) Our lessons come from Treasuring Christ, a 4 year chronological study of the Bible which allows repetition for our preschool and depth for our older students.

We also provide free RightNow Media access to all families which contains biblical content and kid-friendly shows to continue family discipleship at home.

Student Ministry

If you have a student in 6th to 12th grade, our Student Ministry is the perfect place for them to learn and grow in their relationship with the Lord with a like-minded community. Our Student Ministry meet as a large group every other Monday night. Each student is also paired with a discipleship mentor that they regularly meet with throughout the year. There are other group outings and day trips planned during the school year and in the summer, such as a winter retreat, holiday parties, and a trip to King’s Dominion.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the Student Ministry leaders.

Women’s Ministry

The vision of our Women’s Ministry is that every woman would flourish in the image of God by growing in union with Christ. We pursue this vision by providing our women opportunities for spiritual formation, which is rooted in God’s Word and activated in discipleship and fellowship. For this reason, our ministry opportunities are centered around diligent study of God’s Word and fostering an intentional culture of discipleship and fellowship amongst our women. 
 
Our women meet for Spring and Fall Bible Studies, and a variety of events, moms’ meetups, retreats, and leadership equipping opportunities. We also run a monthly Connection Ladder to help women from different walks of life connect with each other. Events and opportunities are announced throughout the year and available for signups on the Next Steps page.

Men's Ministry

We desire to help every man take one step closer to becoming more like the perfect Man–Jesus Christ. We do this through seasonal fellowship events, retreats, and discipleship cohorts. While our Small Groups provide the bread-and-butter of relational accountability through male-specific breakout times, we are excited to provide additional opportunities for men to grow and connect together as we pursue becoming more faithful disciples and leaders at home, in the workplace, in our community, and for our church family. You can find out more about our next seasonal event or joining a men’s cohort at our Next Steps page or email Pastor Matthew here.

Local & Global Outreach

We care about reaching our local community through our Go Beyond initiatives and we are involved in church planting around the world through the Great Commission Collective. 

Go Beyond is our church’s initiative to encourage, organize, and mobilize people to better our community through acts of service. We want to make our community a better place to live and shine the light of the gospel through our good works so that God would be glorified in Northern Virginia. 

The GCC is an international family of churches and strategic partners that exist to glorify god by planting, strengthening, and multiplying great commission churches around the world.
