NEXT is a community of young adults (ages 18-30, married and single) who choose to live according to God’s word. They embrace their identity in Christ as they grow in faith, meet new friends, and serve others. The needs of young adults are focused on with interactive discussion and time in God’s word.

NEXT studies are using RightNow Media Bible Study during the 9:30 a.m. Sunday School hour. All adults (18-30) are invited to join them in Room 106 in the Courtyard. 

Text or call Melissa Joyner (813.777.6342) or Trisha Shirey (813.244.3840) for information about the group. In addition to regular weekly meetings, fun social events and service projects are offered. Join the Facebook group NBCC NEXT group to connect with them.

Men! Every Tuesday @ 6:30 p.m. New Beginnings, along with teacher Kirk Beasley, wants to equip you for facing life’s giants. This weekly men’s Bible study will bring others throughout the church together for a time of fellowship, then deep devotional study, and finally Godly accountability. This ministry is designed to make bold in you the Spirit of the LORD and to equip you with the sling and stones you will need as a man to lead God’s church to victory. So join us in the Family Life Center (FLC/Gym) to prepare for life’s greatest battle and let us, as men, fight the enemy back with our very own “Stones Throw Men’s Ministry.” There will be food, fellowship, and study. 

They currently are using the study of Frances Chan’s The Gospel of Mark on RightNow Media. 

Our ladies generally meet at 6:00 p.m. on the second Thursday of the month. Our next Gathering is Thursday, October 14.
