Ministries

Ministries at FBC Trussville exist to help people grow in faith and live out the Gospel daily. We equip every generation through discipleship, service, and community to follow Christ and make an impact.

Spiritual Growth

Are you in a small group? Studying God’s written Word, the Bible, brings us into a closer fellowship with Him. Doing so within a small group brings us into a closer Fellowship with other believers as well…something that’s critical to a healthy, active walk with God.
