Our edification, our service, our living together in a sanctified community, our families, and our individual lives should all be key means in making disciples of non-disciples, and assisting one another in growth in Christ.

Midweek Fellowship

Our men's and women's mid-week Bible studies at Summit Woods Baptist Church meet together Wednesday evenings at 6:30 pm for a brief teaching time before breaking into men's and women's discussion and prayer groups over our study. Books for the study are available in the resource room or in the office.

Our Beliefs
  • We believe that the inerrant word of God is sufficient for all the spiritual needs of the individual in matters of godliness, 2 Peter 1:3.
  • We believe that the word of God is able to change people, 2 Tim. 3:16-17.
  • We believe that as Christians we are called to holiness and obedience, 1 Peter 1:15-16; 1 John 2:3.
  • Because of the fall of man Gen. 3 he is in need of the word and the work of God, Col. 3:16, John 3:3.
