What We Are All About
8:15 AM Sunday Groups
Love God
9:30 AM Sunday Groups Worship Service
Love People
We love God by living a life of genuine worship, prayer and study of God’s Word. Loving God means being fully devoted to Him and living a life of obedience. Jesus said the world will know us by our love. We love people by first loving fellow believers in the church, and then loving and meeting the needs of people in Denton and around the world.
Jesus Loves Me: Sam Hernandez
Make Disciples
11 AM Sunday Groups Worship Service
Disciples are simply followers of Jesus Christ. We seek to make disciples through our worship services, Sunday Groups, Bible studies and one-on-one relationships. Our goal is to become fully devoted followers of Christ.
Parent Commitment: Maddox Joel Highfill, son of Zach & Susan Highfill
Share Jesus
At First Denton we believe everyone is called by God to share Jesus with those who are not yet believers in Christ. We are all ministers and God gives us unique opportunities to share the gospel message with those in our circles of influence.
