BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH
UPCOMING EVENTS
WHAT DO I DO NOW?
SALVATION
God Loves
God created you, knows everything about you, and loves you. He loves you so much that He sent His only Son to this earth for you (John 3:16).
Sin Separates
God loves you but there is a problem – your sin. Your sin separates you from God. Your thoughts, words, and actions keep you from a holy God (Romans 3:23, 6:23).
Jesus Saves
Jesus came from Heaven, lived a perfect life, died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and rose again so that you could have a personal relationship with God. There is nothing you can do to earn God’s love and salvation, it is a free gift (Romans 5:8).
We believe that God desires to have a personal relationship with you. He has prepared the way for you by sending His Son, Jesus. You can have a personal relationship with Jesus by repenting of your sin, turning from your sinfulness, and placing your hope and trust in Jesus and what He did for you on the cross (Romans 10:9-10).
BAPTISM
What is baptism
all about?
Bible Baptist understands baptism to be a believer’s symbolic identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus (Romans 6:3-5). It is done by immersion as an act of obedience by those who have put their faith and trust in Christ.
We believe that baptism is an important step in the life of a believer. While baptism is not necessary for salvation, salvation is necessary for baptism and is crucial in the discipleship process of the believer.
If you are interested in baptism, please contact our church.
MEMBERSHIP
There are two essentials we require in order for you to join the Bible
Baptist family..
1. You must have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
2. You must be scripturally baptized either at Bible Baptist Church of West Union or transfer your membership from being Baptized in a like-faith church.
DISCIPLESHIP
Bible Baptist wants to help you grow in your relationship with Christ.
One of the best ways for you to accomplish this is to get involved in the life of the church. In addition, we also offer a variety of classes and courses to assist in your walk with God. Check our calendar and bulletins for times and locations.
OUR MINISTRIES
We offer a freshly-cleaned, fully-staffed nursery for each and every service at Bible Baptist Church. It is our goal to provide a safe and happy environment for your children, while you worship and hear the preaching and teaching worry-free in the adult classes and services. Each worker has been background checked and we have the nursery divided into two classes, for the safety of the children.
Infants – Our infant nursery is for children who are newborn up to two years of age.
Toddlers – Our toddler nursery is for children two and three years old. During the Discipleship hour at 9:30 a.m. they have a Bible lesson especially for them.
Discipleship – We have Sunday School classes available for all ages, every Sunday morning at 9:30 a.m. Every teacher has been background checked, for the safety of the children. The skilled teachers teach fun and exciting age-appropriate lessons where your children can learn about God’s Word and how to apply it to their lives, sing lively songs, and do many hands-on activities.
Jr. Church – This is a church service geared toward our younger crowd at Bible Baptist Church. Here they will learn a great Bible lesson, play games, and engage in other fun activities. We have a Junior Church going on during our 10:45 a.m. adult worship service.
Kids’ Club – This is a fun Bible-based club especially for kids. In our Kids’ Club, the members will have a Bible study or an object lesson, do some hands-on learning, make new friends, and engage in church and community service projects. The Kids’ Club meets every Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m. We offer age-appropriate clubs broken down similarly to our Sunday School classes.
Activities We have several activities for this age group throughout the year. One of our major events is:
-
- VBS (Vacation Bible School) – Held sometime throughout the summer, this is a fun-filled time of Bible stories, big games, food and lots more.
This is the youth group for our 7th-12th grade students. Want to find some Christian friends who are friendly, fun and interested in the same things you are? Then visit some of the IGNITE classes, groups or activities and you’ll find just that and a whole lot more. The youth leaders have been background checked, for the safety of the teens.
-
- Wednesday Night @ The MOD – This is a time for Bible study, fellowship, and fun. Come out for a relevant Bible study, some great snacks and awesome games. Check us out every Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m. in the teen modular.

- Activities -We love activities, and we have lots of them. This gives us a chance to invite our friends from school or work to a youth-oriented outing without the pressures of coming to an actual church service at first. Keep your heads up for announcements in class.

MEET OUR MINISTRY TEAM
TIM CARTER
SENIOR PASTOR
Pastor Tim Carter is a native of Adams County, having grown up in Seaman, Ohio. When he was sixteen years old, he accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. After graduating North Adams high school, Tim met Sherri Meeker while attending Southern State Community College. Tim began attending church with Sherri at Bible Baptist Church of Hillsboro. During this time, he was baptized and felt the calling of God to do something more with his life. He went on to graduate from the University of Cincinnati and married Sherri in the fall of 1990 and after a year, they moved to Mt. Orab, Ohio and began attending Bible Baptist Church, Mt. Orab. It was there that Tim surrendered his life to preach God’s Word. Tim and Sherri began working with the teenagers as the youth directors and served in this position for three years on a part-time basis and another year full-time. He received extensive practical and spiritual ministry training while on staff there, and eventually felt the calling of God to start a church in Adams County; specifically, West Union. In May of 1998, Bible Baptist Church of West Union was born. Tim and Sherri are the parents of two daughters, Ashley (1991) and Emily (1994). As of April 2, 2011 and May 17, 2014 they have added Josh Brock and Steelley Peters, their son-in-laws to their family.
