A Bible-believing church on North Beale Road
Bible Baptist Church sits at 2787 North Beale Road in Marysville, California, an independent Baptist congregation that centers its life on the preaching of God's Word. The church describes itself as a place where "Jesus is first and people are loved" and where the Bible is taught in every worship service, every group, and one-on-one through its discipleship program.
Worship on Sunday morning, Sunday evening, and Wednesday night
The church gathers three times a week around the preaching of Scripture. Sunday morning worship begins at 11:00 a.m. and Sunday evening worship at 6:00 p.m., with a midweek service on Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. All three services are streamed live on the church's YouTube channel, and a sermon archive is available for anyone who wants to catch up later.
Spanish-language ministry in the Fellowship Hall
Spanish-speaking members of the Marysville community have their own gathering on Sunday mornings at 9:40 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall, with an additional Spanish Bible study on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. in Room 107. The two languages share one church family while meeting in their own settings and rhythms.
Sunday school for every age, in every building
Bible Baptist runs a full slate of classes on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. Firm Foundation, led by John and Charell, meets in the Main Auditorium and serves the adult congregation. Legacy Builders, led by Andy Schneller, gathers in Modular 1 and serves the senior adults. Children ages 4 through 12 meet in the Educational Building, and the teen ministry meets the same hour. Nursery care is provided for children from birth through age three during every public service, and a Toddler Church runs alongside it.
Continue Discipleship: a fourteen-lesson journey
New believers and longtime members alike are invited into the Continue Discipleship program, a fourteen-lesson study that walks through the foundational doctrines of the Bible and shows how to apply them in everyday life. The office can be contacted at info@bbc4me.org for more information on joining the next round.
55 missionaries around the world and next door
Bible Baptist supports 55 missionaries, a mix of local and international workers, and frames missions as a core expression of the Great Commission. The church partners with these workers through prayer, giving, and service, and treats outreach as a responsibility that belongs to every member of the body.
What the church believes
The statement of faith, rooted in the King James Version as the only translation used in the church's ministry, lays out seven core convictions. The church confesses one God who exists eternally in three Persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - and affirms that Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God, born of a virgin, truly God and truly man. Salvation comes only through faith in Christ's substitutionary sacrifice on the cross; all who reject Him remain condemned. The Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of God and the final authority in faith and practice. On the last days, the church holds to a literal interpretation of Scripture, a pre-tribulational rapture of the saints, a seven-year tribulation, the pre-millennial return of Christ to reign for one thousand years, the Great White Throne judgment, and the new heaven and new earth that follow. The local church, in this view, began when Jesus called out the twelve apostles and was empowered at Pentecost, and is made up of saved, baptized believers who unite for worship, fellowship, service, and the ordinances of baptism and communion.
A path from salvation to baptism to community
Bible Baptist outlines the Christian life in three concrete steps. Step one is believing in Jesus, the moment of heart-trust that the Bible calls being "born again." Step two is following Jesus in baptism, a public declaration that does not save but identifies the new believer with Christ's death, burial, and resurrection. Step three is connecting with other believers in a local church family, the place where a new Christian grows in grace alongside others.
A safe place for every child
Every volunteer who serves in Bible Baptist's Children's Ministries is required to complete a background check, a policy the church describes as part of its commitment to a "safe, caring, and Christ-centered environment" for the children entrusted to its care.
How to find a place to serve
The church actively invites members to discover and use their spiritual gifts through outreach, missions, and care. Serving opportunities are available on the church's website for anyone who wants to step into a role in the life of the church.
Giving, prayer, and staying connected
Online giving is available through Pushpay, and the church stays in touch with members through a public calendar, a Facebook page, and an Instagram account. The church office can be reached at (530) 742-2495 or at office@bbc4me.org for questions about doctrine, ministry, or visiting.
