We're a church devoted to seeing God transform lives by the power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We believe the gospel informs, shapes, and fuels all that we do, from worship to children's ministry to missions. We believe the gospel offers the solution to the fundamental problem everyone faces: we are sinners in need of a Savior.
• Perhaps you feel incurable, that there’s no hope for you; you're
too bad and too broken for God to heal and restore. We want to help you find the mercy God offers in Jesus Christ, so you can say, "I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me" (Galatians 2:20).
• Perhaps you feel insignificant, that you don’t matter and don't understand who you are. Maybe you've been wasting your life or not making the impact God designed for you. We want to help you find meaning and purpose in your life as one wondrously made in God's image, to make an eternal difference, so that you can say, “For me, to live is Christ and to die is gain” (Philippians 1:21).
• Perhaps you feel isolated, that you're all alone; you have no tangible community around you. We want to help you connect with God’s people in the local church, to become members of the body of Christ who grow in grace together, so that you can say, "Now as we have many parts in one body, and all the parts do not have the same function, in the same way we who are many are one body in Christ and individually members of one another" (Romans 12:4–5). We believe the gospel provides us a cure, gives us a cause, and connects us with a community. So, whether you’re seeking hope in the midst of life's trials, searching for answers to life’s perplexing questions, or simply looking for a church home—whoever you are and whatever your situation—Arlington Baptist Church opens wide our doors and offers you welcome in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
