About First Southern Baptist Church

Our Motto Making Disciples, Making Friends, Making a Difference in Terre Haute
Our Mission We aim to be a biblically based community of believers dedicated to impacting lives with the Word of God.
Our Commitment We devote our lives to worshiping together, investing in each other through small groups and serving the needs of our community and beyond.
Our Core Values
The written Word of God - Scripture is our guide, authority, and conscience in everything. We submit to the Bible as the source and standard for what we believe, say, and do.
The embodied Word of God - Jesus is Lord and head of the church. If it does not exalt his name, we do not embrace it.
Disciple-making - Jesus' last commandment on earth was to make disciples. We strive to follow Jesus in every area of our lives and to lead others to do the same.
Relationships - Jesus came to show God's unmatched love for people. We share each other's burdens, rejoice in each other's victories, and consider others more important than ourselves.
Commitment to the uncommitted - Jesus came to seek and save the lost. People who are not yet His followers are our priority.
Service - Jesus didn't come to be served but to serve. We believe that all of God's people are uniquely gifted to build up the church and to affect their world.
Collaboration - Jesus was passionate about the unity of his people. We work together with like-minded churches to expand God's kingdom on earth.
