Nashville First Baptist Church

The Bible tells us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). Senior Pastor Thomas West delivers a message that digs deep into the fruit of “faithfulness.” 

Bryan Barley delivers a message focusing on “goodness”—a fruit of the Spirit that points us toward lives marked by integrity, courage, and moral beauty.

Senior Pastor Thomas West speaks on "Kindness," the Spirit-shaped kindness that Jesus taught and embodied.

Today, we’re continuing our summer series, The People We’re Becoming, by looking at a fruit that’s both beautiful and hard—patience. Discipleship Pastor, Bryan Barley, is preaching. 

Pastor Thomas West explores what it means to become people of peace in an age of anxiety.

We're exploring the Fruit of the Spirit today, with a focus on "Joy." We hope that you encounter the joy of Jesus today in the music, in the message, and in the presence of this community.

As summer begins, we’re entering a new teaching series we’re calling “The People We’re Becoming.” Over the next nine weeks, we’ll explore the Fruit of the Spirit—beginning today with Love.

Welcome to worship with us today! We will complete our series, Fresh Wind & Fresh Fire, this Sunday. Bryan Barley, Discipleship Pastor, delivered our sermon today. 

Everyone has a role to play. No spectators. No spare parts. Just one body—fully alive when each part plays its role. Church is the place where you are needed and wanted. 

We’re in week three of our Fresh Wind & Fresh Fire series, and we turn to one of the most powerful promises Jesus ever made, “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you…” (Acts 1:8).

Fresh Wind & Fresh Fire, exploring the promised gift of the Holy Spirit — the presence of God with us and in us. We look at scripture from Joel 2:28-29 and Acts 2:1-21 today. 

Our new series, Fresh Wind & Fresh Fire, begins this Sunday. We’re stepping into the season between resurrection and Pentecost—when Jesus promised something even greater than His presence beside us: His Spirit within us.

Today, we celebrate the culmination of it all: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is the day that changed everything. Jesus has conquered sin and death; we have hope that never fades because He lives. Happy Easter!

This morning, we’ll listen in on the final word Jesus spoke from the cross—“Father, into your hands I commit my spirit”—a word of profound trust, perfect surrender, and deep rest.

This Sunday, our "Seven Words from the Cross" series focuses on Jesus' words, "It Is Finished."

Today, we continue our journey through the Seven Words from the Cross and hear Jesus’ cry, “I thirst.” Thank you for joining us online!

Today, we focus on the fourth word from the Cross: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Whether you need healing, salvation, or a renewed sense of God’s presence, don’t leave without responding to what He’s stirring in you today.

Let’s worship, let’s behold the Son, and let’s listen for His voice. He has a word for you this morning. Senior Pastor Thomas West looks in depth at "Woman, Behold Your Son"

This moment between Jesus and the repentant thief reveals the heart of the gospel—grace freely given, salvation assured, and a Savior who welcomes sinners into His presence. 

Over the next several weeks, we will journey together through The Seven Words from the Cross—the final, powerful words Jesus spoke as He bore the weight of our redemption. Today we look at "Father, Forgive Them"

Our teaching series on God’s Design for Relationships concludes today. Senior Pastor Thomas West turns our attention to marriage and God's plan for couples.

Bryan Barley, Discipleship Pastor, dives into a timely topic this Sunday: singleness and the gift of the life you’ve been given right now.

Proverbs and other portions of Scripture teach us how to be a friend, why friendship is so hard, and how Jesus is the true and better friend who never fails.

So glad you joined us today! Over the next few weeks, we will explore what it truly means to be human—to be made in God’s image, to reflect His glory, and to live as He designed.

We’re finishing up our series on the House of Hezekiah with an look at 2 Chronicles 32:24-33. The message focuses on how we can "finish well."
