Our Vision         

The vision of Genesis is to experience the presence of God as he inhabits the praises of his people, to learn more about God by studying the Bible, Christian theology and church history, giving truth practical application in our lives, work, and relationships; and to be a Christian community that reaches for the lost and hurting in every creative way possible based on our gifts, talents, and resources.  We seek to have those we reach to experience God’s presence, learn and apply truth to their lives, and reach others by sharing their faith.

Our Purpose         

The purpose of Genesis Baptist Church is to reach up to God through worship, to reach in through Christian education and nurture, and to reach out through evangelical ministry.

Our Guiding Principles

 -We Believe
- Every human being is to be valued as a creature in the image of God with inherent worth, a candidate for redemption and eternal life without respect to age, race, gender, or socioeconomic status.

The Bible is the supreme guide in matters of faith practice. We believe it to be written by persons who were inspired by the Holy Spirit. - Only those who are connected to Jesus Christ by faith in his life, death, and resurrection and who are participants in his redemptive purpose in the world are truly the Body of Christ.- The gifts and calling of every believer in Jesus Christ without regard to cultural, biological, or social distinctions. We are obligated to encourage every person who believes to stir up the gift that is within him/her and to walk in his/her calling.-That genuine fellowship is one of the highest expressions of Christian community and nurture for the human spirit. We are obligated to participate in and to enhance such fellowship.-That the nurture of our children and young people is of utmost priority, that whole persons do not fall from the sky, but they have to be made through nurture, growth, and development. This is much of the church’s ministry.

-That we are sent to the world as witnesses for our Lord. A complacent disposition with regard to saving souls is contradictory to the teaching of our Lord. We must proactively find the lost, share with them the gospel, and lead them to the Savior, Jesus Christ.

Our Church Logo

GENESIS BAPTIST CHURCH is a new beginning. It is the light, the freedom, and the inclusiveness, that has emerged from behind dark mountains of misunderstanding, confusion, pain, and bondage in the mother church. GENESIS began with people who were willing to walk by faith and trust God to meet every need. At the center of the faith is the cross, the willingness to sacrifice and suffer the recognition that our Lord suffered for us. It is not a neat cross with smooth edges, but a rugged cross, a blood-stained cross. It represents being broken and shaped for the Master’s purpose.

Who We Are

                               Who is GENESIS? GENESIS is the community of those who are being crucified with Christ. Who is GENESIS? GENESIS is the community of those who are being resurrected to newness of life, hope for the community, rays of light as the sun rises anew from behind dark mountains over against a blue sky, a sky that symbolized God’s favor and God’s approval. Genesis is God’s working, God’s gift of love and fellowship, the freedom to respond to God’s call, to exercise our spiritual gifts, and to worship God freely.

Our History

Genesis Baptist Church is a gift of God.  The circumstances that brought us he into being are not arranged by mere mortals. We continue to be in awe and amazed concerning what the Lord has done.The first time together was a mountain top experience. The music and songs in our souls, enhanced by Pastor Headen's playing of his acoustic guitar. More than seventy people gathered for Bible Study. The first Sunday Services was held at a hotel with the first sermon "Beauty for Ashes" Isaiah 61:3

     Proverbs 3:6



We take this opportunity to thank the many members, family and friends of Genesis Baptist Church.
