Encouraging Faith - Knowing the Truth - Pursuing Godliness
We are created to worship. Everything about our lives is to worship Jesus Christ. We gather Sunday mornings @ 10:30am for that very reason. We would love to have you join us.
Consider this your "Invitation"
Also, you can follow us on Facebook to stay up with what's going on in the life of the church. Click the Facebook link at the bottom of the page.
Church Life
This Sunday we'll look at Matthew 6:19-24. In these verses Jesus teaches about the importance of priorities of the heart. He's going to show us that what's really in our heart is revealed by who or what we treasure. He's also going to remind us that we cannot have a divided heart - loving the world and loving God. Join us and see how having a healthy heart allows us to have the right priorities in life. See you there.
Enjoy time with family and friends this Holiday Season. We'll pick back up after the New Year.
Please make sure your gifts for the folks at the Madison House are in this Sunday, Dec. 8th.
We need time to organize everything and then we'll deliver them on the 15th. Thanks for loving on those wonderful people!
Dec. 15th we're headed to the Madison House to have a little Christmas fun. We'll sing, laugh, and make Christmas wreaths. Join us at 2:30pm for the fun!
Make sure to join us Dec. 15th for our last fellowship luncheon of the year. It will be a good one. We're having turkey, ham, and all the fixings! Please plan on being with your church family. See you then.
Who We Are & What We Believe
The Bible teaches that believers are to live out their lives together with other believers in the context of a local church body. The church is who we are, not what we do. What we do flows from who we are.
Everything about our Sunday morning service is geared to encourage you to participate in every aspect of the service, because every aspect of the service is worship. We are encouraged to worship through singing, praying, serving, giving, listening to God's Word being preached and applying it to our lives, and enjoying fellowship with each other.
We don't care about your background, your past, or what you wear; we simply desire to know you, love you, and to come along side of you to help you understand how the gospel applies to your life. Come as you are!
We are affiliated with the SBC. We also agree with the Baptist Faith & Message 2000. To see what that is go to www.bfm.sbc.net
Worship
Join us Sundays @ 10:30am. We meet in the chapel at Source of Light Ministries here in Madison. We are not affiliated with Source of Light; they simply allow us to use their facilities. For directions see the map at the bottom of the page.
Our worship is purposefully theologically rich, so it is a blend of contemporary & traditional songs. The focus is on Jesus Christ. Our preaching is expository, so you can be sure you will hear biblical truths, and it always includes how to apply what's being taught to your life.
Missions & Community
We strongly believe that the Church is to be a part of sharing the gospel. So we give to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering which benefits missions in North America. Every penny given goes to the missionaries.
We also give to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering which benefits missionaries all around the world. Again, every penny collected goes directly to the missionaries out in the field.
We also give to the Cooperative Program that benefits local and state associations as they equip the Church, as well as the other entities within the SBC. And locally, we also visit the residents and staff at the Madison House where we spend time just loving them, hearing their stories, and sharing biblical truth with them.

To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me. "
