Bible Preaching
Preaching Services -- The Word of God is the main emphasis. We believe and preach from only the old King James. (This is mentioned in our doctrinal statement.) We avoid formal worship services and maintain an old-fashioned emphasis. We sing from an old-fashioned hymn book and use no contemporary Christian music for any reason. Invitations are given at the end of every preaching service, and God's people are encouraged to respond.
Children's Church -- Our Childrens' Church Program is very well organized. The children, kindergarten - 3rd grade, are taught character lessons, special childrens' songs, hymns, Bible stories, and every week they hear a sermon on their level from one of our Childrens' Church preachers. The messages brought to the children are based on the Sunday School lesson taught that day in class. Repetition is the key to learning!
Sunday School -- Every class, from the Nursery to the Adult Auditorium class, is taught the same lesson. Each teacher takes the lesson material provided for them from the pastor and gears it to the age level of his/her class. No boy is taught by a lady teacher once he is in the 1st grade. Women teach the girls; men teach the boys.
Special Meetings -- Every year, special speakers are invited to preach. These meetings include revival meetings and missions conferences.
Missionary Speakers --
From time to time, guest missionaries will pass through and share
their field of calling with the Timberline Baptist Church family.
