Our 5 point Purpose
To Actively encourage people to...
1. Abide in Christ for Salvation
2. Adore Him in Worship
3. Affiliate with His People
4. Adjust to His Word, and
5. Act in His Ways.


1. How we Abide in Christ
We believe each of us must come to a specific time in our lives when we see our need to repent of our sins (not my way, but Thy way Lord!), and enter into a covenant relationship (like marriage) with Jesus Christ by giving Him all we have and all we are !

How to be Saved by Grace or Born Again for Eternal Life
Romans 3:23 ; 6:23 ; 5:8 ; John 14:6 ; 1:12 ; 3:16

Get the Facts. The Bible says:

1. All of us are sinful & separated from God. Ever Lied? Lusted? Hated? That’s sin!)

2. The price of sin is eternal Death & Hell.

3. Jesus is the only way to Life & Heaven.

Repent of your Sin. "Lord, I agree with You that I have lied, lusted, hated & must turn from my sinful, selfish ways to Your ways."

Ask for His Cleansing. "Lord, will You forgive me & cleanse me of my sin by Your blood?"

Covenant with Jesus. "Lord, since forgiveness only comes by covenant (like marriage), I say: "I do!" Everything I am, and all that I have, I give to You on this day & forever more."

Enjoy Him forever! "Lord, as Your new bride, I want to abide in You in baptism (a symbol of covenant like a wedding ring), prayer, Bible study, church & sharing Your message with others!"


2. How we Adore Him in Worship
Mark 12:28-31 ; John 4:24

Our Worship incorporates piano, guitar, and percussion in the service.

Our Music is a blend of our heritage of hymns and contemporary choruses.

Our Praise Style is a balance of three Biblical models focusing on three different aspects of God:

Majestic Praise

Isaiah 6:1-5

Worship God as King!

Celebrative Praise

Psalm 150:1-6

Worship God as Victor!

Intimate Praise

Romans 8:15-17

Worship God as Father!


3. How we Affiliate with His People
Matthew 28:17-19 ; Hebrews 10:23-25

Doctrinally we adhere to the Baptist Faith & Message statement of faith (free copies available upon request).

Nationally we are affiliated with over 36,000 churches and 15 million people in the Southern Baptist Convention.

Globally we support our International Mission Board, the largest missionary force of any denomination in the world.

Locally we are autonomous like every other Southern Baptist church in our non-hierarchical denomination, but have unlimited access to consultant services from our association, state convention, and all national agencies.

Personally anyone who “Abides in Christ” and is Scripturally baptized may become a member of our church by 1) Letter from their former church; 2) Statement of their Faith in Jesus Christ; or 3) Baptism by Immersion
