PBF is a congregational, self-governing church under the headship of Jesus Christ and the leadership of elders. Since both Jesus and Paul appealed to the congregation as the final authority on matters of discipline, we structure ourselves congregationally (Matt. 18:15-20; 1 Cor. 5). The congregation votes on its leadership, admits and dismisses members, and stands accountable to God for its public teaching and preaching.
We strive to involve ourselves in each other's lives, holding regular members meetings and living in fellowship together as an expression of our bonds of peace (Eph. 4:3).
In the fall of 2023, we began a new ministry of Small Groups. We currently have two small groups that meet for mutual encouragement, instruction, and fellowship.
