SBC Link

The Southern Baptist Convention is the largest association of Christian churches in Alabama and in America! One out of every 10 churches in America is affiliated with the SBC (50,000 churches and 16 million members — more than many other denominations combined).

It is the most diverse association of churches - SBC churches include every race, nationality, and ethnic group. Each Sunday, services are held in over 80 languages in the U.S.

Every SBC church is completely independent. There is no denominational control or hierarchy, as there are in most other denominations. Each church is self-governed and determines its own affairs.

Every SBC church:
♦ chooses its own pastor ♦ owns its own buildings and assets ♦

♦ determines its own programs ♦

Affiliation with SBC allows us to identify with other Christians around the world who are known for their commitment to the Bible. The SBC has no man-made "creed". Scripture is our only authority as we are guided by the Holy Spirit. It also allows our church to participate in the largest missionary organization in the world. Through the SBC "Cooperative Program" we help support over 10,000 missionaries in North America and in 120 countries around the world
