A Word From Our Elders
Welcome to September 2025! It’s hard to believe that it is September. Where
has the year gone. The students and teachers are back to school, football is
starting back, and fall is in the air. We will start to see pumpkins and fall decorations around. At OGBC we will start our new Sunday School classes on the first Sunday in September. Bro Adam, Bro Hootie and Bro Brent will be teaching this quarter so pick you out a class and join us on Sunday mornings. We encourage you to try a new class or you can stay where you are at.
We will also have First Sunday lunch and Bible studies continue with Small Group
and Men’s and Women’s classes on Sunday night at 5:00pm. Join us each and every opportunity we have here at OGBC. Please pray for fellow members that may be going through difficulties this time of year. Many have health concerns or situations they are dealing with. Prayer helps more than you may realize.
With the changing of the seasons, we may be reminded of scripture in God’s
Word. We pray that you have a blessed month. May God meet each and every need you may have.
Gen. 8:22
While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.
Daniel 2:21
He changes times and seasons; he removes kings and sets up kings; he
gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding;
Psalm 1:3
He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and
its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.
Acts 1:7
He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed
by his own authority.
Habakkuk 2:3
For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie.
If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.
Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever
Psalm 104:19
He made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows its time for setting.
Bro Michael

Statement of Faith
What We Teach
From the time of the Apostles to today, Christians have laid out doctrine (beliefs) in brief, definitive statements. As those who know God, we believe it necessary to set forth in a concise fashion the cornerstone truths that our church teaches as guided by Scripture. Our Doctrinal Statement summarizes essential Christian beliefs, shows unity in Christ, and affirms our belief in the Christian truths which have been held by the church throughout the ages and particularly since the Protestant reformation, including believer’s baptism, and congregational polity (government).
The Freeness of Salvation
We teach that the blessings of salvation are freely offered to all by the gospel, that it is the immediate duty of all to accept the gospel with a glad, obedient faith and Godly sorrow, and that nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner on earth other than his own inherent depravity (sinfulness) by which he refuses to listen and suppresses the truth in unrighteousness thereby rejecting the gospel which makes him wholly responsible for his just condemnation.
Grace in Regeneration
We teach that in order to be saved, sinners must be regenerated, or born again. This results in the mind being spiritually and savingly enlightened to understand the Word of God which is accomplished in a manner above our comprehension by the power of the Holy Spirit and the divine truth of the Word of God. This is done in a way that brings about voluntary obedience and faith which is evidenced by fruits worthy of repentance as demonstrated in righteous attitudes and conduct.
Faith and Repentance
We teach that faith and repentance are required by Scripture and inseparably linked graces that are granted to us as a gift by the regenerating Spirit of God that deeply convince us of our guilt, danger, and helplessness, and of the way of salvation by Christ. We then turn to God with true repentance, confession of sin, and pleas for mercy while whole heartedly receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as our Prophet, Priest and King, and relying on him alone as the only and all sufficient Savior.

THE CHURCH
We are a church that believes in Jesus & loves God and His people
Adam joined the elders at Oak Grove Baptist Church in August of 2022. Prior to that, he served as the Associate Pastor at Sardis Baptist Church in Swansea, SC. Before entering full-time ministry, he taught social studies and coached football in both the Bismarck and Sheridan public school districts.
Adam grew up just outside of El Dorado, AR, graduated from Ouachita Baptist University with a bachelor’s degree in secondary education, and eventually went on to complete both a Master of Arts in Theological Studies and a Master of Arts in Religion/Biblical Studies from Liberty University Online.
He and his wife Kelly have three children (AJ, Eddie, and Halle), and they all enjoy spending time doing anything outdoors, whether it be hunting, fishing, gardening, hiking, or working with the dogs or horses. They are always up for an adventure and see the greatest adventure of all as having their lives spent in service to the savior.
