The First Place movement has taken the nation by storm! Started in 1981as a ministry of First Baptist Church of Houston, First Place is a reliable, proven method of weight loss and balanced living. It continues to grow as a strong church program. First Place has had groups in 12,000 churches across the country—with over a half million members! The tremendous success of First Place is due to its biblical approach to weight management, which puts Christ first and improves every area of a person’s life: spiritual, physical, mental and emotional. This Christ-centered, balanced weight-loss program has guided hundreds of thousands of people to a healthy lifestyle and a closer walk with the Lord. The program includes Bible study, group support and accountability; a proven, common-sense nutrition plan; regular exercise; daily prayer; and Scripture memorization. The First Place program consists of nine categories, which make up the "commitments" that each member is asked to prayerfully consider and follow when joining a class:
• Attendance • Encouragement •
Prayer First Place offers a series of Bible studies. These studies address many issues of everyday life and provide opportunities for growth in Christ. Members complete a weekly Bible study which—combined with prayer and Scripture reading—helps to impart God's strength, empowering members to overcome temptation and make long-lasting lifestyle changes.
