Inner City Evangelism


On a weekly basis, we try to reach young, enemployed men and women of the "rap" generation at College Hill Courts (the "Westside", at the corner of Main Street and Riverfront Parkway). We share Christ, Bibles and discipleship materials. We aim to become a friend and to meet needs, particularly by helping to locate a job. Racial reconciliation is best achieved by ministry together. Volunteers are quite welcome, and we provide on-site training.  Here is one of the friends at Westside:

Below is a picture of Church of the First Born (predominately black), Chattanooga, Tenn., and Grace Bible Church (predominately white), Dayton, Tenn., working in partnership to distribute NIV New Testaments and to share the great news of Jesus Christ. We worked in two Chattanooga housing projects, and follow-up was done by Church of the First Born.
