What is an independent Baptist?
What does it mean to be an independent Baptist church? As an independent Baptist church, we are not affiliated with any Baptist denomination or ruling body. Because of this independence we can support our own missionaries, select our own leaders and support institutions that believe as we believe. In short, our church answers to the headship of Jesus Christ rather than a denominational body. There are currently more than 10,000 independent Baptist churches in America and thousands more throughout the world.
