I'm New Here
"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God." 1 John 4:7

Welcome to First Baptist Church Mount Sterling!  We’re glad you’re interested in finding out more information about our church family.  We hope you will be our guest at a weekend worship service and that you’ll choose to make FBC your church home.  To assist you in preparing for your first visit, we have put together and few “frequently asked questions” that can help you prepare.  As you will see through our website, there are many other opportunities for you to become involved at FBC.  We hope to see you this coming Sunday morning!
What are the service times?
Sundays: We have two Sunday morning worship opportunities.  The 8:30am worship service is our Classic Worship where we sing the classic hymns every week.  The 10:55am worship service is our Modern Worship where we sing modern worship songs each week. We also serve breakfast each Sunday beginning at 9:00am until 9:45am in the Fellowship Hall.  We have Sunday School Based Small Groups for all ages beginning at 9:45am.  We have greeters in the lobby of our church to assist you in finding your way around.

Wednesdays: During our Fall & Spring Semesters we have discipleship programs for all ages (children, youth, and adults) which begins at 6:15pm.  See our homepage for the current semester schedule and times.
What’s available for my kids?

Families are a high core value at FBC.  We believe children are a blessing and heritage from the Lord (cf. Psalm 127:3).  Parents are accountable to Christ for raising, training, and preparing their children to honor the Lord with a life of service to Him.  For this reason, our children and youth ministries are not viewed as “glorified babysitting services,” but are partnerships with parents for the purpose of bringing honor to Jesus Christ through the family.  We have Children's Sunday School Small Groups (9:45am) and Children's Worship (10:55am) on Sunday mornings as well as discipleship opportunities during the Fall & Spring Semesters.
What is the preaching like?

We believe the preaching of God’s Word should promote life-change that produces Christ-likeness.  Jesus accomplished this by using simple language and telling stories to make His point.  Our pastor’s desire is to preach messages that present the inspired Word of God with such faithfulness and sensitivity that God’s voice will be heard and His people obey Him.  Click here to listen to recent sermons.
What is the worship music like?
We believe worship music should be engaging and honor Christ regardless of "style."  We offer two Weekend Worship services with different music styles.  The 8:30am worship service is our Classic Worship where we sing the classic hymns every week.  The 10:55am worship service is our Modern Worship where we sing modern worship songs each week.   Click on the links below to listen to music samples from our recent worship CD or visit out Worship page for more samples.
How should I dress?

What people wear to church is a cultural issue, not a theological one, so we don’t make a big deal about it.  In fact, a survey in GQ magazine revealed that only 25% of American men even own a suit.  You will find some attendees in dresses and suits, while others will be wearing jeans.  In fact, our Lead Pastor will most likely be wearing jeans.   We don’t want your attire to be a reason that prevents you from attending our church.  We're more focused on Jesus than how people are dressed.
