What worship style will I find at FBCJ?

During the 9:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. services in the Sanctuary, the worship style is best described as “blended” - singing a mixture of contemporary praise choruses and traditional hymns. FBCJ offers a contemporary service called The Link at 10:30 a.m. in Fellowship Hall East. Our Madison Campus has a blended service at 10:30 a.m.

What do I wear?

Some people wear suits, others wear slacks and pullovers. Regardless of what you choose to wear, we encourage everyone to follow the Bible’s instructions to dress with modesty and decency.

Where do I park when I get downtown?

Parking spaces for visitors are reserved behind the Christian Life Center and in the parking plaza located to the north of the Main Facility. Special needs spaces are located in front of the sanctuary on President Street and the parking plaza north of the Main Facility. (A helpful hint: if you come to the church by way of High Street from I-55, you will see a sign directing you to visitor parking.)

What do you believe at FBCJ?

The Bible is the inspired Word of God and the integrity of the Holy Scriptures has been divinely protected through the ages;
In the Trinity - God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit;
In the deity of Jesus Christ and His virgin birth;
In the forgiveness of sin through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ;
That salvation is by grace through faith; and
That Jesus Christ will return.
