Come, Grow, Serve
Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ: (Philippians 1:6), we believe that all true Christians grow spiritually. This is an indication of spiritual life. Without a pattern of spiritual growth, there is little evidence of spiritual life. However with spiritual life and growth comes the need for spiritual food and spiritual exercise.
God likens His Word, the Bible, to milk and meat. "As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: " (I Peter 2:2, Hebrews 5:13-14). We believe the Bible will cause Christians to grow spiritually. The church has a partial role in that growth through
preaching, teaching and proclaiming biblical truth.
Working, serving, laboring and walking are all action word implying exercise. (1 Peter 4:10-11, Eph. 4:11-16, Col. 4:12) All of this exercise of using our lives to serve others helps us grow spiritually as well.
At Olivet Baptist Church, we have many areas where our members can be involved in learning more about the Bible and exercising their faith through ministry opportunities. From our adult ministries, to college ministry, to our school ministry, there are many ways to grow and serve.
We invite you to join us and grow with us. Scroll through and visit the ministry pages under the "Grow" menu above for details.
