Welcome to First Baptist Hendersonville!

Who We Are:

First Baptist is a church that desires to connect every generation to God, others, and service. With a generational emphasis and a next-generation priority, FBCHville strives for every generation to know God personally, to be the hands and feet of Christ, and to invest their lives in others.

What We Believe:

At the core, we believe that the Bible is God’s inspired and authoritative Word. We believe in God, Three-in-One, the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the Creator of all. We believe in Jesus, who died for our sins, and who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing. We believe in the Holy Spirit who guides us to spiritual maturity with a stature measured by Christ’s fullness. We believe in Christ’s return to claim His bride for eternal glory. As a Baptist Church we abide by the Baptist Faith and Message. Read more about it here.
