First Christian Church is boldy seeking God
To say we are boldly seeking is to understand faith as a journey and not a destination. We are a people who do not claim to have this faith thing figured out. We are faithful followers but not the only ones faithfully following.
-
We are a fundamentally inclusive
community of faithOur denomination describes itself as a movement for wholeness in a fragmented world. The First Christian Church community encourages all people to spread the table of welcome in their daily lives through tangible acts of hospitality, justice, generosity, hope and healing.

FCC is fearlessly loving in Christ
We look at the sacrificial love of Jesus. He spoke with frustration about those whose love is extended only when it is easy. Jesus called us to love those who are difficult to love... and to do so in tangible acts that require risk, sacrifice and vulnerability.
Table Centered Worship
Learning the grace-filled life.
Many people will request the church’s statement of faith, and though First Christian Church has an identity and vision statement, we point to the table in the center of our worship experience as a tangible expression of belief. Each Sunday morning we gather around the welcome table, and the entire community shares in the Lord’s Supper. Followers, seeker and doubters are all welcome. Many denominations have a written creed, while our creed is shared and tasted in the bread broken and the cup offered.
Traditional Service
Our traditional service uses hymns and choral music from the rich history of Christianity.
Worship X
Worship X uses a rich diversity of music, but our band puts a wonderful energy into the liturgy.
About Worship
Sunday Mornings
- Traditional Service 9:30am
- Worship X 11:00am
Each Sunday morning, First Christian Church offers two distinct worship experiences. Though our denomination historically celebrated worship in a more traditional format, FCC recognizes that God is experienced through different music and rituals.
Our traditional service uses hymns and choral music from the rich history of Christianity.
Worship X uses a rich diversity of music, but our band puts a wonderful energy into the liturgy.
In both services, we look to inspire and encourage all people through relevant application.
Narrative Style
- Rev. Bruce Frogge preaches in what is known as a narrative style which means the sermons use a great deal of story for the purpose of engaging the listener.
- Worship is never understood as a spectator’s sport, but an opportunity for those who attend to fully engage themselves for the sake of spiritual development.
Testimonials
“FCC Naples is the first church I've attended that let's me be me, and actually enhances my relationship with God, without bashing the belief systems of other faiths.”
