The Philosophy of Ministry of Bible Baptist Church
The three most important questions any member of a church should ask are:
1 .Why do we as a church exist?
2. What do we as a church plan to do?
3. How will we as a church work the plan?
The first question defines our vision, the second our mission and the third our values.
