What is the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC)?

It is the largest association of Christian churches in America. One out of every 10 churches in America is affiliated with the SBC (more than most other denominations combined).

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

It is one of the fastest growing groups. The SBC baptizes over 1,000 new Christians a day in the U. S. and begins nearly five new churches a day!

 

Why Affiliate with the SBC?

It allows us to identify with other Christians around the world who are known for their commitment to the Bible. Unlike other groups, the SBC has no man-made "creed." The Bible is our only authority.

It also allows our church to participate in the largest missionary organization in the world. Through the SBC's "Cooperative Program" we help support over 5000 missionaries in 153 countries with 60,000 churches, mission churches and preaching points on the foreign fields. The Home Mission Board now has more than 5,000 people that they count as Home Missionaries.
