About Us
We exist to glorify God in all our ways through gospel ministry.
Our mission is to make fully-trained disciples (Matthew 28:18-20, Luke 6:40).
We accomplish our mission of making fully-trained disciples by engaging in a multi-faceted discipleship model. As Jesus discipled different sized groups, we do as well. We believe discipleship happens in groups large and small. Small groups serve as our primary catalyst for discipleship. From our children and youth through our senior adults, we have ministries for every walk of life.
At First Baptist Church of Senoia, we:
- honor the Bible through Expository Preaching,
- magnify God through Christ-exalting Worship,
- invest in one another through Small Group Discipleship,
- transform our community through Strategic Evangelism, and
- obey the Great Commission through Mobilizing Missions.
