"It is the ultimate deception to say Jesus can be my Savior and maybe later I'll make Him my Lord... Either you are in Christ or you're not in Christ."

If you are seeking a church in the Bakersfield area, we would love to have you join us this Sunday for one (or both!) of our worship services. You will hear God's Word preached, praises sung, and enjoy the fellowship of God's people.

We know many are hurting and looking for answers in our sinful, chaotic world. Now is the time to be in church, hearing the truth only found in the Bible and sufficient for all our problems, worries, and trials. It's never too late to begin attending church- we hope you can join us for worship of the true Lord and Savior!
