The Purpose Driven Lie
Who are we?
Small Church Big Love
- Many churches only welcome certain people
- But Jesus never turned anyone away.
- God is exactly like Jesus – not exactly like the church
- But Jesus-shaped churches do exist that offer people hope, not hype.
- We are one of those churches.
- And whoever you are, You’re welcome.
What we do?
Our goal at EBC is simple – to connect people to a loving God and each other through a relationship with Jesus. Whether you are a Christian looking for a church to call home or you’ve never attended a church before in your life, we hope you will find the place that God wants you to be. We are all about Jesus. We offer opportunities for you to connect with him as well as others.
Statement of Faith
The purpose of our church is summarized in a single sentence.
“We believe a great commitment to the great commandment and the great commission will grow a great church.”
Our History
Our little church was established in 1951. Since that time, we have been through various changes. Emmanuel Baptist Church is our official name. For those who may not know, the definition of Emmanuel is “God with Us”. Our legacy reflects that truth. As a Southern Baptist Church, we have an obligation to bear a faithful Christian witness to Jesus Christ, the living reality at the center of the Church’s life and witness.

Pastor Anthony
The church is more than a building...
"In summary, the church is not a building or a denomination. According to the Bible, the church is the body of Christ—all those who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ for salvation (John 3:16; 1 Corinthians 12:13). Local churches are gatherings of members of the universal church. The local church is where the members of the universal church can fully apply the “body” principles of 1 Corinthians chapter 12: encouraging, teaching, and building one another up in the knowledge and grace of the Lord Jesus Christ."
