To be used to advance God’s Kingdom in Mountain Rest and around the world.

Core Values

1. Advancing the Kingdom of God is why the church exists.

2. The Bible is God’s inerrant, sufficient revelation of Himself to humanity, and it must be the foundation of the church and of the Christian walk.

3. All people everywhere are valuable to God. The church exists to be a lighthouse, pointing others to the glory of God regardless of their backgrounds, culture, or lifestyle.

How Do I Become a Member?

1. Make sure you have put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ and asked God to forgive you of
your sins and give you the the gift of eternal life.

2. At the end of the message from the pastor, come forward and share your decision with the
pastor at invitation time.

3. Follow Christ's example of baptism by immersion. If you have been baptized as an infant or by
sprinkling, you can be a fellowship member, but we encourage everyone to follow Christ’s example of baptism by immersion.

What We Believe

Our officially adopted statement of faith is the Baptist Faith and Message, revised in 2000. We are a Southern Baptist Church, supporting the partnership of Great Commission churches to advance God’s Kingdom to His glory.
