Our Story: Founded on the Rock of Scripture
A Church Born from Biblical Conviction
On July 4th, 1993, eight faithful believers came together with a shared vision: to establish a church that would stand uncompromisingly on the authority of God's Word. Located in the heart of Auburn, Massachusetts, Bible Way Baptist Church has earned the affectionate title "the church in the valley" from our community.
For over three decades, we have remained steadfast in our commitment to Christ-centered, Scripture-driven ministry. Our growth hasn't been about numbers—it's been about depth, faithfulness, and the transforming power of God's Word working in the hearts and lives of His people.
Expository Preaching That Transforms Lives
At Bible Way Baptist, we believe that God's Word is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword. This conviction shapes everything we do. Our preaching ministry is built on careful, verse-by-verse exposition through entire books of the Bible, allowing Scripture to speak for itself with power and clarity.
Every sermon is an opportunity to behold the glory of Christ as revealed in His Word. We supplement our expository series with topical and doctrinal messages when needed, but always with the goal of magnifying Christ and building up the saints in their most holy faith.
Worship That Honors God
Our worship services reflect our deep reverence for God and His Word. We begin with responsive Scripture reading, allowing God's voice to set the tone for our gathering. Our congregational singing lifts hearts to heaven, and our preaching opens the treasures of divine truth.
We believe families should worship together as God intended. You won't find children's church during our morning service because we're convinced that children benefit from hearing God's Word proclaimed alongside their parents and the broader church family.
Committed to the Great Commission
Our obedience to Christ's command in Matthew 28 and Mark 16 drives us beyond our church walls. Bible Way Baptist is actively engaged in various outreach ministries including street preaching, tract distribution, door-to-door evangelism, nursing home ministries, and our radio broadcast. These efforts have been instruments of encouragement and Gospel witness in our community.
We firmly believe that strong families build strong churches, and strong churches contribute to a strong society. This conviction shapes our emphasis on biblical family life and our commitment to supporting parents in their God-given role as the primary disciplers of their children.
A Place to Grow, Serve, and Fellowship
If you're seeking a church where you can grow in grace and the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, serve according to your gifts, and enjoy sweet Christian fellowship, we warmly invite you to visit us. We have vibrant young families, Sunday School classes for all ages, and a heart for both the mature believer and the seeking soul.
We're not interested in political agendas or worldly entertainment—our passion is Christ, our foundation is Scripture, and our goal is the glory of God. We endeavor to cultivate a Christ-centered, God-honoring, Holy Spirit-adoring atmosphere where believers can feast on the Word of God together.
