About Us

A Family of Friends on Mission with God

A local church is all about relationships. At First Baptist, we desire to create an atmosphere like that of a loving, multi-generational family. Yet we recognize that as a church, we are given a mission much greater than ourselves.

People avoid church for all kinds of reasons. Too often worship is like a high school pep-rally, the messages are based on Dr. Phil or Oprah, and the people just see you as a stranger who took their parking spot.

First Baptist, South Lebanon is different! We ’re friends with people of every generation. We believe the worship and the messages should be biblical and relevant. We work hard at getting a “thumbs up” from every child and an "amen" from every grandparent.

What to Expect

What are services like?
Our services feature a blend of contemporary songs and hymns with a southern gospel song thrown in from time to time. We have a worship leader who leads from the piano most of the time with a choir, praise team and a small praise band (electric drums, keyboard, guitar) backing him up. Our worship leaders are various ages. Our pastor's messages are practical, biblical and easy to understand. He uses humor and often tells stories to help communicate his messages. The entire service from start to finish lasts about 55-65 minutes.

What is the community like?
We are made up of various generations. We like that idea and think it is a biblical concept to have a church with older and younger members. Our people come primarily from the village of South Lebanon and the surrounding suburbs. We strongly encourage our people to become part of one of our small groups that meet on Sunday morning at 9:30, so they will have stronger connections with each other.

What if I'm not a Christian?
We welcome guests who are seeking to know more about God and how to have a relationship with Him. We will not put you on the spot or call you out in any way. You will find our morning service is filled with easy to understand terms and descriptions that you can relate to. We won't water down our beliefs, but we will make them easy to understand. Some of our people prefer to dress up and some wear jeans and a t-shirt--it doesn't really matter. We don't ask you to introduce yourself in front of a bunch of people, but we will try to get to know you on a personal level if you are open to that. You can simply observe, or get as involved as you would like. It's your call.
