Welcome to Berean Baptist Church

Together on the Journey

Who Are We?

Our mission at Berean Baptist Church is to teach from the Bible to cultivate: love from a pure heart, a love for God and people, a good conscience, an attitude of service, an emphasis on making disciples, a sincere faith, and obedient living.

1 Timothy 1:5

About Us

Our Mission

Teach the word and on that foundation, cultivate love expressed to God in obedience, and in service to the church, and to the world.

Explanation:  If our beliefs are to be believable, there must be behavior that issues from our beliefs. The church finds its mission as it listens to the Word of God. It finds its purpose as it lives out and displays the Word of God. What does the Word say, what does it mean by what it says, and how does that apply to me?

Our Purpose

Matthew 22:37–39 (NASB95)

And He said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ “This is the great and foremost commandment. “The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’

Matthew 28:19–20 (NASB95)

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Our Goal

1 Timothy 1:5 (NASB95)

 But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.

Colossians 3:16–17 (NASB95)

Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.

Our Name

The term “Berean” is derived from the New Testament passage Acts 17:10-12 (NASB).

“The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so. Therefore many of them believed, along with a number of prominent Greek women and men.”

Our Home

We were organized in May of 1985. In November of 1987, our current facility was completed. Berean was established to be a self-governing, evangelical, independent Baptist Church.
