MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR
PASTOR BILL ROSE
At The First Church, our mission is simple: reach the lost, serve the least, and raise up the next generation of leaders. First Church College is an extension of that mission by creating a place where students can grow in their faith, discover their calling, and be equipped to make a difference wherever God leads them.
It is truly an honor that you would consider making First Church College part of your journey. We believe God has placed purpose inside every student, and we are excited to walk alongside you as you grow academically, spiritually, and as a leader.
Our prayer is that your time at First Church College would prepare you not only for a career, but for a life of impact.
Equipping Leaders. Training Disciples. Sending Difference Makers.
OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH
Through our partnership with Emmanuel University, First Church College combines the strength of an established Christian university with a personal, community-driven college experience at The First Church. Emmanuel University oversees the academic side of the student experience, including courses, faculty, curriculum, academic standards, and degree requirements. Emmanuel is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) to award associate, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees.
While Emmanuel provides the academics, First Church College focuses on what happens beyond the classroom through mentorship, leadership development, meaningful relationships, community connections, and hands-on training. Together, this partnership gives students the opportunity to pursue an accredited, Christ-centered education while being equipped, trained, and prepared to make a difference wherever God calls them.
