In 2007 the Family Life Center was completed. It includes Sunday School rooms, a new kitchen, fellowship hall, basketball and volleyball court, Awana square, Youth rooms, and stage.
Our old fellowship hall has been remodeled to include new and updated nursery, Children’s Church area, SS Office, and Children’s SS room. The pictorial wall of the History of Antioch Baptist Church has been moved to the wall on the outside of the Sunday School Office.
Our Core Values
At Antioch Baptist Church we deeply value:
Love - Out of love for God we genuinely show concern for those inside and outside of our church as we would
our own family. We do this by fulfilling physical and spiritual needs, having fun, and enjoying fellowship with
one another. Matthew 22:37-40; Galatians 5:22 and 6:10; Philippians 2:1-3
Bible Centeredness - We recognize the Bible as God's absolute truth for all of life, therefore we preach and
teach its truth in order to become mature Christ-minded believers. Mark 13:31; John 1:1;
II Timothy 3:16-17; Hebrews 4:12; II Peter 1:20-21
Prayer - We believe that prayer is a foundational truth in that it is the way we communicate with God and express
our total dependence upon Him. We pray in order to obtain guidance, peace and closeness with Him.
Matthew 6:6, 9-15; Philippians 4:6-7; James 5:13-14, 16; I John 5:14-15
Great Commission - We are commanded to go spread the good news of Jesus locally and globally.
In fulfilling this purpose we continuously grow in our relationship with Christ personally and as
a church. Matthew 28:16-20; Mark 16;15; Acts 1:7-8; Romans 10:14-15
Teaching - We teach the truth of God's Word to people of all ages in every ministry we have so that
our lives may be transformed to more closely reflect Christ. Deuteronomy 6:4-9;
Proverbs 22:6; Colossians 3:16; II Timothy 3:16-17
Because we value the above, we treasure:
Relationships - We develop relationships through fellowship and quality time in small groups. We
grow and mature spiritually in an environment of openness and trust as genuine caring takes
place. Proverbs 27:17; Ephesians 4:32; Hebrews 10:23-25; I Peter 3:8
Spiritual Growth - We encourage personal and corporate spiritual development by teaching God's
Word. We do this through worship, Sunday School, and other small-group settings for people of
all ages. Colossians 3:16; II Timothy 2:2, 3:16-17
Meeting Needs - Our congregation strives to actively and compassionately provide help that will
meet the physical, spiritual and emotional needs of everyone the Lord brings to our attention.
Matthew 25:36-40; John 13:34-35; Galatians 6:9-10; Titus 3:14; I Peter 4:8-10
Teamwork - Each member doing his/her own part in cooperation and unity leads to godly outcomes.
Individuals at Antioch use their unique talents and gifts to bond together in accomplishing common
goals. Psalm 133:1; Ecclesiastes 4:9-10; Romans 12:4-6a; Philippians 2:1-4
As a church, we aspire to live under the:
Lordship of Christ - Recognizing God's sovereignty (supreme authority) our goal as Christian people
is to be completely controlled by Christ, our Lord and Savior. As such, we seek to faithfully follow
His direction in all aspects of life. John 14:15, 21, 23; Romans 12:1-2; Philippians 2:5-11;
Colossians 3:23; Revelation 4:11
