Redemption Evangelical Church is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), being in friendly cooperation with it and contributing toward its causes. We thank God for the resurgence of biblical values in the SBC over the last three decades and the opportunity to contribute to its various ministries, including the efforts of the North American and International Mission Boards (NAMB and IMB, respectively) to take the gospel to every corner of the earth.
Many of our members, including some of our elders, have received solid biblical training from Southern Baptist seminaries. We appreciate the contribution of various SBC churches and agencies to our own lives as well as the SBC’s rich heritage of standing for biblical truth and carrying out the great commission.
