Welcome
The North Central Independent Baptist Fellowship exists to facilitate fellowship, sharpening, and church planting among churches and pastors who are unified around shared biblical conviction and Historic Baptist Distinctives.
We desire to be a help to faithful servants of God in our region by encouraging communication, strengthening relationships, and fostering cooperation where it can assist local churches in their God-given work.
Our Purpose
Fellowship
One purpose of our fellowship is, well, the fellowship. We need the encouragement of others in ministry.
- There is plenty of opposition to serving God.
- It is helpful to be encouraged by those in the trenches.
- It is a blessing to fellowship with those unified around shared doctrine.
Sharpening
There is always room for improvement in ministry, and one reason for fellowship is to allow others of like faith to sharpen us.
- We should be willing to invest in others as well.
- Let us never become unteachable.
- We can work together to perpetuate Historic Baptist Distinctives.
Church Planting
If we are to reach the North Central region for Christ, more churches must be planted.
- New churches need to be planted.
- Established churches need to be strengthened.
- We can network churches, resources, and personnel to help train leaders.
The Nature of Our Fellowship
The North Central Independent Baptist Fellowship is a loosely organized, voluntary fellowship centered around shared doctrine and mutual cooperation.
The fellowship does not function as an authority structure over churches or pastors. We believe that Jesus Christ left His authority in one entity: the local church.
The fellowship exists only to facilitate effective communication and organization as we work together for fellowship, sharpening, and church planting.
