CELEBRATING OUR 177th YEAR IN
2010
First Baptist Church has maintained a continual evangelical Baptist
witness in Wheeling, WV since 1833. The present Church building,
dedicated in 1960, consists of five floor levels, all easily accessible
by our state of the art elevator system, opening on each floor to
lobbies, three of which are flooded with natural light from the
outdoors. The church is situated along historic National Road in
picturesque Wheeling. Surrounded by the beauty of renown parks and
the Ohio River, our community is rich in tradition and resources.
At First Baptist, we continue to uphold our religious tradition through
a solid Bible based scriptural doctrine offering Worship services, Bible
studies, Sunday school classes and special events for all ages. This
church is affiliated with the Panhandle Baptist Association and the West
Virginia Baptist Convention.

COMING SOON TO FIRST BAPTIST WHEELING
March 19-21, 2010
Seminar presented by Rev. Dr. Don Whitney
Since 2005, Don Whitney has been Associate Professor of Biblical
Spirituality at The Southern Baptist
Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, where he also
serves as Senior Associate Dean. Before that, he held a similar
position (the first such position in the six Southern Baptist
seminaries) at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas
City, Missouri, for ten years. He is the founder and president of
The Center for Biblical Spirituality.

Don grew up in Osceola, Arkansas, where he came to believe in
Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He was active in sports throughout
high school and college, and worked in the radio station his dad
managed.
After graduating from Arkansas State University, Don planned to
finish law school and pursue a career in sportscasting. While at the
University of Arkansas School of Law, he sensed God's call to preach
the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He then enrolled at Southwestern Baptist
Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas, graduating with a Master
of Divinity degree in 1979. In 1987, Don completed a Doctor of
Ministry degree at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield,
Illinois. Currently, he is completing his Doctor of Theology with
Specialization in Christian Spirituality at the University of South
Africa.
Prior to his ministry as a seminary professor, Don was pastor of
Glenfield Baptist Church in Glen Ellyn, Illinois (a suburb of
Chicago), for almost fifteen years. Altogether, he has served local
churches in pastoral ministry for twenty-four years.
He is the author of
Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life (NavPress,
1991), which has a companion discussion guide. He has also written
How
Can I Be Sure I'm A Christian (NavPress, 1994),
Spiritual Disciplines Within the Church (Moody Press, 1996),
Ten
Questions to Diagnose Your Spiritual Health (NavPress,
2001),
Simplify Your Spiritual Life (NavPress, 2003), and
Family Worship (Center for Biblical Spirituality, 2006). His
hobby is restoring and using old fountain pens.
Don lives with his wife Caffy in their home near Louisville. She
regularly teaches a class for seminary wives, works from their home
as an artist, muralist, and
illustrator and enjoys gardening and beekeeping. The Whitneys
are parents of a daughter, Laurelen Christiana.
