Men's Ministry
Every first and third Thursday
6:30pm – 7:30pm
Location: 1470 National Rd., Wheeling, WV 26003
Category: Men Coordinator: Darrin WrightBeginning in July 2026, the men of FBC will meet twice a month to study The Redeemed Man.
This practical study looks at how the gospel shapes every part of a man’s life—his walk with God, his relationships, his work, his service, and his perseverance to the end. Men of all ages and life stages are encouraged to join us as we consider what it means to live as men redeemed by Christ.
