At First Baptist we believe a church should be:
With acceptance of wide-ranging opinion, with complete respect for the freedom of conscience of every member, and without dogmatic authorities or hierarchies.
With love for God and our neighbors and a sense of Christian responsibility for fairness, justice, openness, and the inclusion of all God's children.
With love and study of the scriptures, without using the Bible as a tool of coercion or a proof-text for narrow-minded dogma.
With serious spiritual commitment and loving community joining together on a journey of faith.
Come join us in building just such a church!
