Our core values at Battle Creek Baptist Temple

The Sufficiency of The Scriptures

When we speak of the sufficiency of the scriptures, we refer to the fact that the Bible is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. Therefore, we continue to make every effort to structure our church according to the biblical mandate.

A Biblical View of Conversion

Bring the lost to Christ. To seek and to save. (Luke 19:10) We desire to see true conversion. We constantly proclaim and explain the gospel, and take our time with people struggling to understand what it means to follow Christ.

Christ Exalting Worship

The Bible has little to say about worship styles. However, one thing is sure, we are to engage in Christ exalting worship through preaching, praying, scripture reading, singing, giving, honoring and obeying God.

Biblical Parenthood

God has given clearly defined roles to men and women in the home and in the church. While these roles have come under attack in our culture, God has not changed. While the church is called to make disciples, it is clear that God has given the family as the primary disciplining agent. We believe that children are a blessing from the Lord and are entrusted to their parents for their spiritual upbringing. We embrace, teach, and celebrate these distinct roles at Battle Creek Baptist Temple
