Adults
Adult Bible Studies and Spiritual Formation
No matter where you are in your faith journey, there is a place for you at First Methodist Midland. We believe following Jesus is something we do together—growing in community, encouraging one another, and becoming more like Christ.
From the beginning, God created us to walk closely with Him, care for one another, and reflect His love in the world. Through Jesus, we are invited back into that life, and every opportunity to worship, learn, serve, and grow helps us take another step on that journey.
Whether you’re exploring faith, returning to church, or have followed Christ for years, you’re welcome here. Adult Ministries offers Bible studies, Sunday classes, small groups, support ministries, special events, and service opportunities designed to help you build meaningful relationships, deepen your faith, and live out God’s calling.
We invite you to explore the ministries and groups below and discover a place to connect, belong, and continue growing as we walk together in returning with Jesus to the goodness of the Garden.
