Pleasant Beach Baptist Church - Independent

If we could take six words and describe Pleasant Beach Baptist Church to you it would be "This is the place for you!" We are a fundamental, Independent Baptist church that has taken a firm stand on the King James Version of the word of God in the past and will continue to do so in the future. We believe that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever(Hebrews 13:8) and we find no reason to change or be any different. The old fashioned preaching and the old fashioned singing of days gone by that many of us are accustomed to, still fill our services every time that we meet together. There is a Sunday School that is designed to meet the needs of everyone that attends from the nursery all the way to the senior adults. We are a church that still believes in taking the gospel of Jesus Christ locally to a lost and dying community as commanded to do so in the scripture(Matthew 28:19-20). The great commission of Jesus Christ is extended through support of foreign missionaries in lands where out foot may never reach but the gospel still needs to be heard. There is a bus ministry that believes in going in to the highways and hedges(Luke 14:23) to compel people to be in the house of the Lord! Every worship service there is an old fashioned, Christ centered message by our pastor, Bobby Stout, which is held in the main auditorium. On Wednesday night we have Master Clubs available that minister to 4 - 6th grade.
If you want your heart touched, your life changed, your life challenged and a place where the Holy Spirit is present in every service, then "This is the place for you!".
