Bible Preaching & Teaching
Our services are centered on the Lord Jesus Christ who purchased our salvation. Since Christ must be preeminent, we place a great importance on the preaching and the teaching of the Word of God. Pastor Knickerbocker primarily preaches in an expository way through books in order to fulfill his responsibility to preach 'the whole counsel of God.'
Bring your Bible with a heart ready to be challenged and encouraged by God's Word. If you do not have a Bible we would like to give you a copy.

Music that Honors our Lord
Our church loves to sing the great hymns of the faith! First State Baptist Church is a place that seeks to honor God in every aspect of the services, and that includes the music. The singing and music is all geared to prepare our heart with a sincere humility before our Mighty and Holy God.
The Lord has blessed FSBC with gifted musicians who have a desire to use their gift for the glory of God.

Nursery Provided for Every Service
Many of our ladies volunteer on a weekly basis to help care for the smaller children in our newly renovated nursery. All nursery workers and volunteers are vetted before they are given a place of service in the church. Our desire is to encourage and help families as the parents fulfill their God given responsibility to bring their children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
The nursery is available for children who are three years old and younger during Sunday school and all other church services. All other children have the joy to participate in the regular service of the church.

Sunday School for All Ages
Every Sunday at 10:00am everyone is welcome to come to Sunday School to learn existing truths from God's Word. Sunday school is a great time to deepen your knowledge of the Word of God in a more classroom-type setting. In the children's Sunday School, children (ages 3 - 12) will learn Bible songs, Bible verses, and Bible stories. The children also have the opportunity to come before the congregation as a class and recite the verses they learned and sing the Bible songs.
A Friendly Atmosphere
First State Baptist Church is a welcoming and friendly church. The folks at FSBC love the Lord and love to reach the community with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. FSBC exists to reach everyone with the saving Gospel of Christ. The members of the church as simply servants of the Lord.
