Common Questions
How can I become a Christian?

What can I expect at First Baptist?
We never want to give the impression that we are perfect and without problems. Like everyone else, we get angry and upset, we have our desires and preferences, we laugh and cry, and we have our hopes and dreams. With all this being true, we know that Jesus is the answer to all of our problems and is the source of all our joy. We are people who have been forgiven of our sins. We desire others to be forgiven as well and live their lives for the glory of Jesus Christ
