The Vision
First Church exists to glorify God by being a life-giving church to the Des Moines metro and the world that is Bible-Based, Gospel-Centered, Spirit-Empowered, and Family-Focused.
Our Core Values
At First Church we have simplified ministry – we are Bible-Based, Gospel-Centered, Spirit-Empowered, and Family-Focused! In fact, all of our worship services, ministries, outreaches, and events coalesce around these four elements, and they have helped us define and discern who we are, what we do, and why we do it! We have discovered when a church intentionally focuses its attention on the things that really matter the power of God begins to be unleashed, individually and corporately.
