Fort Worth | For Good Update
2024
Update
It's hard to believe it's been nearly two full years since we first came to you with a vision for our church (and from our church) called Fort Worth | For Good: A multiplying model of church where different congregations with unique expressions of the same DNA serve as hubs to develop and deploy Christ-centered neighbors toward every neighborhood in our city. And a great big investment in a local school that's just a short walk from Doxology Southwest where some kids (for a variety of reasons) need a little extra support to thrive and flourish. That feels like just yesterday. Until you begin to look at what's happened since that time. Watch a short video from Chris below to hear what's been happening with our vision to bring Good to Fort Worth. And to find out where we go from here.

More detailsBaptism
Sundays
9 & 10:30am
Baptism is an external celebration of a change that has happened in you. When you connect with Christ, you have a new identity in Christ and you are forgiven from sin and its eternal results. The image of baptism connects you with the death and resurrection of Christ, and the water represents the “washing away” of your sins as you trusted Christ. In baptism, you have the opportunity to publicly express your commitment to Christ and share with others the change that He has brought about in your life. Ready to take that step? Use the Connection Card link and check "I want to get baptized."

More detailsCommunity Groups
Various Days
Various Times
We were made to belong. We each have a longing and void that can only be filled when we experience community. In the New Testament we see the followers of Jesus living in close fellowship, generously sharing what they had, and eagerly serving one another. It was a beautiful picture of the community that God has designed for us to experience. We dream of a church where everyone can experience that kind of belonging, support and spiritual growth in community groups. We envision a time when there is a Community Group in every neighborhood in Fort Worth, so that every person in our city would live within walking distance of a group of people who love God, love each other, and love their neighbors. So whether you are interested in joining a group, or would be willing to host a group we would love to connect and help you find that place to belong here at Doxology.
