Weekly Guide

Every day, an invisible war rages around you — unseen, unheard, yet felt throughout every aspect of your life. A devoted, devilish enemy seeks to wreak havoc on everything that matters to you: your heart, your mind, your marriage, your children, your relationships, your resilience, your dreams, your destiny.

But his battle plan depends on catching you unaware and unarmed. If you're tired of being pushed around and caught with your guard down, this study is for you.

The enemy always fails miserably when he meets a woman dressed for the occasion. The Armor of God, more than merely a biblical description of the believer's inventory, is an action plan for putting it on and developing a personalized strategy to secure victory.

This Priscilla Shirer's 7-week study, "The Armor of God," September 12 - October 24 at Brookside in room 1305.

Mondays 7:00-8:30p & Tuesday 9:00-10:30a

Baptism is the outward expression of an inward decision. If you have accepted Christ, we would love to baptize you and share this special decision with you to go public with your faith!

To let us know of your interest to be baptized, complete the form below. We will get in contact with you to schedule you for our next water baptism. 

We are continually humbled and grateful for the work God is doing through the generosity of our Brookside family. Living a Jesus-centered life means living a life of generosity, giving our time, talents, testimony, and treasures. Your financial support means you are participating in God's work in the lives of His people and throughout the Fort Wayne community. You can give on the web at brookside.org\give, the Brookside App, the offering boxes located in the worship center or main lobby, mailed, or even through stocks and securities. For more information on financial gifts, see brookside.org\give.
