Our Definition of Ministry
The ministry is a faithful endeavor to meet the spiritual needs of others all to the glory of God.
Mission Statement of Faith Baptist Church
Faith Baptist Church exists for the
exaltation of the Lord Jesus Christ, the edification and equipping of
believers, and the evangelization of the lost.
You will find that we love to worship! There is
something that is very important to us
in our worship – we want our worship, in all of its expressions, to please an
audience of One – the Lord.
If you attend our services regularly, you will find we are
committed to expressions of worship in music that are traditional and yet
fresh. Over the years, God has given His Church a treasury of hymns to
convey the rich theological truths of the Christian faith. In a day when churches
are casting aside these hymns, we are committed to learning and celebrating the
good hymns and songs God has so graciously given to His Church.
We are equally committed to learning and celebrating the new
hymns and songs God is presently giving to His church. This is why when
you come and worship with us, you will encounter the best of the traditional
hymns as well as some of the new hymns that are part of God’s rich blessing to
His people!
So, when you come in to worship, we
invite you to join with us as we sing the rich hymns of the faith, old and new,
in a way that honors God, reflects our heritage as a church, and refreshes our
spirit before the Lord!
Our Preaching
Because the Bible is the inspired, infallible,
sufficient, and authoritative word of God, it should be understood and obeyed by
the Lord’s people. The best way to accomplish this in the corporate
worship of the church is to preach through the Bible expositionally (Ezra 7:10;
Neh. 8:8; Jer. 3:15; 2 Tim. 4:2). This is primarily done through
sequential, verse by verse, exposition of books of the Bible, but can also be
done through topical exposition (i.e. what the Bible says about any given
topic).
Our Ministry Capacity
Our goal here at FBC is not to be big! We are actively evangelizing our
community and regularly inviting people to attend our services, but
numeric growth is not our goal. We firmly believe that the growth God is
most concerned with is the spiritual growth of His people. Therefore we
have established what we call a "ministry capacity" number which we
believe best enables us to fulfill the goal of seeing people grow
spiritually. This philosophy is foundational to our missions philosophy,
building plans, and discipleship ministry.
