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 is happening. 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 use RightNowMedia, a streaming library of Bible studies for our small group content. We currently have 10 small groups spread across the Northern Virginia area.
Church membership is not required to be in a Small Group and groups are always open.

At check-in you’ll get printed name tags for your children and a parent receipt with a matching, randomly generated code. You’ll show this parent receipt to pick up your children at the end of the service. Every volunteer is required to go through a thorough background to ensure our kids utmost safety.
Each Sunday, the kids 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 Family Worship website. We also provide free RightNow Media access to all families which contains biblical content and kid-friendly shows to continue family discipleship at home.
Treasuring Christ is a 4 year chronological study of the Bible which allows repetition for our preschool and depth for our older students.
OUR VALUES
Parent-led discipleship (Deut 6:4-9) through our weekly family devotional and monthly reading plans
Equipping parents (Eph 4:11-3)
God-given worth of children (Matt 18:10)
Gospel centered discipleship (Col 3:1-3)
If you have a student grades 6 - 12, our Student Ministry is the perfect place for them to learn and grow in their relationship with the Lord and with a like-minded community. Our Students meet as a large group every other Monday night and each student is paired with a one-on-one discipleship mentor that they regularly meet with throughout the year. There are other group outings and day trips planned throughout the year, such as trips to Kings Dominion, weekend retreats, park gatherings, etc.
Women’s Ministry
The goal of our women’s ministry is to study the Word of God, foster fellowship and service with spiritually like-minded women and to give our women opportunities for connection in larger group settings and one-on-one relationships. Our women gather throughout the year for fellowship and social events and we meet during the Spring and Fall for a Bible study. We also run a monthly Connection Ladder which is always open - you can read more or sign-up here. For all our moms with kids, we have monthly meet-ups.

Making Fairfax Bible church your home
MEMBERSHIP
Membership is designed for those ready to commit to Fairfax Bible Church. It’s an agreement to spiritual accountability, and the beginning of a continual part of your spiritual and relational growth as you make Fairfax Bible Church your home. It's the step that never stops.
In our two-part membership class, we'll discuss our mission and vision, values and pursuits, and church leadership, long-term direction, discipleship, and doctrine. After the membership class, you'll sit down with one of our elders for a member interview.
