What to Expect

Biblical Teaching

Our teaching on Sunday mornings and throughout the week is rooted in the reflection and discussion of God’s Word above any other sources of opinion or commentary. Our pastors and teachers will always elevate the Word of God and His supremacy in it.

Personal Connection

We are delighted by every visitor and seek to create a personal relationship with you that makes you feel connected from the start, whether you are speaking to our pastors or chatting with one of our members.

Comfortable Atmosphere

We want to remove any barriers that prevent your worship of and connection with Jesus Christ and that begins with creating an atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable and open to engage with our body of believers while feeling encouraged to participate.

Our Beliefs

(Excerpts from The Baptist Faith and Message)

  • The Scriptures

    The Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired and is the record of God's revelation of Himself to man. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth, without any mixture of error, as its matter.

  • God

    There is only one living and true God. The eternal God reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.

  • Humanity

    Humanity was created by the special act of God, in His own image, and is the crowning work of His creation. Humanity sinned against God so Christ died to make humanity acceptable before God.

  • Salvation

    Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, who by His own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer. In its broadest sense salvation includes regeneration, sanctification, and glorification.

  • God's Purpose of Grace

    Election is the gracious purpose of God, according to which He regenerates, sanctifies, and glorifies sinners. All true believers endure to the end. Those whom God has accepted in Christ, and sanctified by His Spirit, will never fall away from the state of grace, but shall persevere to the end.

  • The Church

    The New Testament church of the Lord Jesus Christ is a local body of believers who are associated by covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel ... and seeking to extend the gospel to the ends of the earth. This church is an autonomous body. The New Testament speaks also of the church as the body of Christ which includes all of the redeemed of all the ages.

  • Baptism & The Lord's Supper

    Baptism is the act of obedience symbolizing the believer's faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior, the believer's death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus. The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members memorialize the death of the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming.

  • The Lord's Day

    The first day of the week is the Lord's Day. It commemorates the resurrection of Christ from the dead and should be employed in exercises of worship and spiritual devotion.

Let us pray for you.

No matter where you are or what you are going through, we are here to pray for you and offer our encouragement, sympathy, or care.
