About.

ENRICHED SPIRITUAL LIFE.

Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. – 1 Peter 3:15

The Bonita Christian Forum was launched in 2005 by First Presbyterian Church of Bonita Springs to enrich the cultural and spiritual life of the Bonita Springs area. Its intent is to raise the visibility of the Christian message in our community and present the life-changing work of Christ to people who have not yet met Him.

Over 19 previous seasons, the Forum has welcomed some of the most notable voices of our time from multiple disciplines, sharing their Christian testimony.
