Christmas in July
Christmas in July: Operation Christmas Child
Christmas in July is here! Each year, Northport Baptist Church begins preparing early for our November Operation Christmas Child Packing Party, and this is a simple way for our church family to help make a big impact.
Suggestion cards for needed shoebox items are located near the Missions Wall. Stop by the display, choose the items you are willing to provide, and return the items — along with the card — by the end of August.
Every item collected helps us share God’s love with children around the world through Operation Christmas Child. Be sure to check out the display today and help us get ready for this year’s packing party!

Jesus is Better
Jesus is Better: A Journey Through Hebrews
Co-Ed Bible Study
Leader: Joseph Givens and Derek O’Quinn
Location: Room 104
What if the greatest challenge to your faith isn't suffering—but settling for something less than Jesus?
The book of Hebrews was written to believers who were tempted to look back instead of pressing forward. Through every chapter, we're reminded of one life-changing truth:
Jesus is better.
He is the better Savior, the better Priest, the better Sacrifice, the better Covenant, the better Hope, and the better King. As we journey through Hebrews together, we'll discover why Jesus is worthy of our complete trust, wholehearted worship, and lifelong obedience.
This isn't just another Bible study. It's an invitation to deepen your faith, strengthen your confidence in Christ, and encourage one another to persevere in a world full of competing voices and distractions.
What to Expect
Each week, we'll discuss one chapter of Hebrews and explore how its timeless truths shape our daily lives. Our goal is not simply to gain more biblical knowledge, but to allow God's Word to transform our hearts.
Participants Are Asked To:
Read the assigned chapter of Hebrews before each class.
Actively participate in class discussions and encourage one another.
Prayerfully decide how you will respond to what God is teaching you through His Word.
Whether you're new to studying the Bible or have walked with Christ for many years, you'll find practical encouragement, meaningful discussion, and a renewed appreciation for the greatness of Jesus.
Come discover why Jesus truly is better.
Revelations from God’s Word
Revelations from God’s Word
Leader: Laura Sprayberry
Location: Room 424
A Co-Ed Bible Study
Have you ever read a familiar passage of Scripture and suddenly seen something you've never noticed before? Throughout our walk with Christ, God continually reveals new truths through His Word that deepen our faith, strengthen our understanding, and transform the way we live.
Revelations from God's Word is a co-ed Bible study that explores biblical insights and life-changing truths discovered through years of studying Scripture. Together, we'll discuss practical lessons, encouraging discoveries, and timeless principles that help us know God more intimately and follow Him more faithfully.
Whether you're new to studying the Bible or have spent years in God's Word, this class offers an opportunity to grow alongside others as we uncover the richness and relevance of Scripture together.
Join us as we learn, discuss, and discover the incredible truths God continues to reveal through His Word. Everyone is welcome!
Come Home
Home – A Women's Bible Study
Leader: Judy Hall
Location: Room 105
Every heart longs for a place to belong—a place of peace, security, and lasting hope. In Home by Caroline Saunders, you'll discover that this longing is ultimately fulfilled not in an earthly place, but in the presence of God.
This 7-session Bible study traces the theme of home throughout Scripture, from the Garden of Eden to the promise of our eternal home with Christ. Along the way, you'll see God's faithful plan to dwell with His people and learn how every chapter of the Bible points us toward the hope found in Jesus.
Through weekly group discussion, personal Bible study, and video teaching, you'll explore what it means to find your true home in Christ. Whether you're navigating seasons of change, carrying the weight of an imperfect home, or simply desiring to know God more deeply, this study offers biblical encouragement and lasting hope.
Join us as we discover that our longing for home is not misplaced—it is a reminder that God has prepared something far greater than anything this world can offer.
Women's Study | Our Covenant God
Our Covenant God Bible Study
Join us for an eleven-week study through Our Covenant God by Kay Arthur, beginning Tuesday, September 8, from 9:30–11:30 AM, and concluding on November 17.
In a world where faithfulness can feel rare, this study will help us see the unshakable truth of God’s covenant love. Through Scripture, we will discover how God keeps His promises, how His covenant shapes His relationship with His people, and how knowing Him as our Covenant God brings stability, freedom, and deeper trust in Him.
