Introduction to FBC
Welcome to First Baptist Church of Eaton Rapids
We are a body of believers saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, as revealed by Scripture alone, to the glory of God alone.
In God's grace He has built our church body with believers who eagerly wish to grow in their love, knowledge and application of God and His Word and be His hands and feet to the church body and our local community.
The ministries that take place at FBC give us this opportunity to be discipled, experience fellowship and serve one another throughout the week as we grow together in our common commitment to our Lord, Jesus Christ.
We invite you and sincerely hope you will join us!
What To Expect
Defining markers of our church & worship
Expository Preaching
Every word in the Bible is the perfect, sufficient and enduring truth of God and as such demands our diligent study. The goal of each of our Sunday morning messages is to walk through and expose the meaning of the Bible, verse by verse, so that we can humbly, joyfully and zealously submit to it & apply it to our lives.
Discipleship
The Bible is at the center of all that we do. We are committed to studying God's word together so that we can grow together in relationship and fellowship and encourage, challenge and help each other become the disciples God has called us to be.
Humble Prayer
We believe there is great power, not in prayer itself, but in God whom we are praying to. We take seriously our call to pray and are committed to growing in prayer individually, with our families, and with the church body.
Cross Generational
We are committed to multi-generational ministry which seeks to unite children and adults in worship and service. As much as possible, we seek to be family integrated while still including special times for age specific instruction.
