First Baptist Church of Palmetto
About Us
Mission Driven:
Everything we do is driven by our mission.
Relevant Environments:
Our desire at Palmetto First Baptist is to create relevant environments for children and adults. To do this we must discover how to use culture to communicate what we need to say. Jesus modeled for us how to build a bridge relationally to turn on a light spiritually.
Strategic Service:
Applying our hearts and our hands to the place of greatest demand is strategic service. In order to continue to create excellent environments conducive to life change at FBCP, everyone needs to find a place of service.
Intimacy with God:
When we try to be religious, we tend to be polite and distant. If this is our routine with God, it will not encourage intimacy with Him. Intimacy in any relationship requires three things:
1) unrushed and unstructured time
2) transparency with our feelings and
3) mutual submission.
Biblical Authority:
We believe that the Bible is our instruction book from God. Even though no one likes having someone else tell them what to do, maximum freedom is found under the authority of the principles found in the Bible. Any time we try to operate parts of our lives outside of the authority of scripture, we lose freedom. As others watch us live under this authority, we demonstrate hope to those outside the church.
Relational Evangelism:
Relational Evangelism is investing in a friend for the sake of eternity and then inviting that friend to a safe environment. As long as we are investing in others, our hearts will stay in the right place.
