We are a gospel-centered Baptist church in Simpsonville, SC committed to gospel faithfulness, biblical community, and intentional disciple making.

We make the gospel central.

We pursue gospel faithfulness by making Jesus Christ and His redeeming work for sinners the primary focus of everything we do. 

We live in biblical community.

Life is not meant to be lived alone. In fact, Christians are called by God to live in community with one another under the authority of His Word. 

we reproduce ourselves.

Following Christ means taking up mission and making disciples. We do this individually, through personal discipleship, and corporately, by planting and revitalizing churches. 

THIS SUNDAY AT SSBC - March 16, 2025


  • We strongly believe that the most important instrument in the room when we gather is the congregation's voice; therefore, we make intentional decisions about the songs we sing, the instrumentation we use, and the volume of the instrumentalists and singers on stage. 


    Take a moment to listen, learn, and prepare to sing loudly as we gather to proclaim Christ together!

  • John 3:22-36

    Jesus and John the Baptist

    22 After this, Jesus and his disciples went to the Judean countryside, where he spent time with them and baptized. 23 John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was plenty of water there. People were coming and being baptized, 24 since John had not yet been thrown into prison.  25 Then a dispute arose between John’s disciples and a Jew about purification.   26 So they came to John and told him, “Rabbi, the one you testified about, and who was with you across the Jordan, is baptizing and everyone is going to him.”  

    27 John responded, “No one can receive anything unless it has been given to him from heaven. 28 You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Messiah, but I’ve been sent ahead of him.’   29 He who has the bride is the groom. But the groom’s friend, who stands by and listens for him, rejoices greatly at the groom’s voice. So this joy of mine is complete. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.”

    The One from Heaven

    31 The one who comes from above is above all. The one who is from the earth is earthly and speaks in earthly terms.   The one who comes from heaven is above all.   32 He testifies to what he has seen and heard, and yet no one accepts his testimony. 33 The one who has accepted his testimony has affirmed that God is true.   34 For the one whom God sent speaks God’s words, since he gives the Spirit without measure. 35 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hands.   36 The one who believes in the Son has eternal life, but the one who rejects the Son   will not see life; instead, the wrath of God remains on him.
