Stories of great — and notorious — people and deeds from the Hebrew Bible. The Bible is more than just a collection of “feel good” or “do good” stories, and its people are multifaceted and complex. Joshua says “as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”.

During his tenure as First Church Senior Pastor, Tim initiated and recruited leadership for two major Long-Range Planning. Following Gil Rendel’s book, Holy Conversations, First Church adopted a process that involved the entire congregation. The discernment method focused on three questions: Who are we? Who is our neighbor? What is God calling us to do?

This community of faith began its journey together in 1853 when the first members of a Methodist Society in Fort Worth held its services in homes and the old Masonic Hall on Weatherford Street.

Tim knew that leading a faith community the size of ours came with a role and responsibility to occupy a presence in the surrounding community on behalf of the church.

Over the past 18 ½ years, we’ve already learned that a large part of Dr. Tim Bruster’s leadership role as senior pastor has been devoted to enabling, encouraging, and empowering his staff to find and follow their passion in ministry — with some stellar results for the church as a whole.

Among the many passions Dr. Tim Bruster brought to first church 18 1/2 years ago was a desire to enable, empower, and encourage outreach in this large downtown church with an already rich history of outreach ministries.
