God's Grace Changes Everything!
Loving and Serving our Community since 1841

The Archbishop of Canterbury once said, "The church is the only organization organized
primarily for the benefit of its nonmembers." We take these words to heart at First Baptist of
Madison. Our mission and vision is to be the presence of Christ to our friends and neighbors.
In this web site you will learn a few of the ways we do that. Thanks for visiting.  

Here are a few ways to describe our Christian fellowship:
A progressive, diverse, welcoming, and grace-driven Baptist Church.
A partner with Cooperative Baptist Fellowship
A Christian community that honors the intellect and inspires the spirit.
A fellowship of men, women, boys, and girls who love and honor Jesus.
Rev.  Dr. Charles P. McGathy, Pastor

On behalf of the people of First Baptist Church I welcome you to our web site. We hope you will
get a feel for the spirit and purpose of our fellowship. Thanks for taking a look at our unique
Christian family. You are welcome to
contact me if you have additional questions.
