We believe in Jesus for salvation, and we also believe his word, the Scriptures. This begs the question—what do the Scriptures teach? We believe that the 1689 Baptist Confession is an excellent and accurate, though not inspired, expression of the teaching of the Holy Scriptures.
We affirm what orthodox Christians have confessed throughout the history of the church—the inerrancy and authority of the Bible, the Trinity, the full deity and humanity of Jesus, the fall of mankind, the saving work of Christ in his life, death, and resurrection, the future resurrection of all men, and the final judgement.
SUMMARIZED IN CHAPTERS 1-8 & 31-32 OF THE 1689
We believe the doctrines of grace and hold to the foundational conviction of the Protestant Reformation that the Scriptures alone are the final authority for faith and practice. They are sufficient to teach us how we ought to live all of life under the Lordship of Christ—as individuals, in our families, in the local church, and in society.
SUMMARIZED IN CHAPTERS 1 & 9-25 OF THE 1689
We believe that Christ has given direction for the ordering of his church on earth. We hold that the biblical form of church government is elder-led congregationalism. We also believe that Baptism can only be administered to credibly professing believers, and that local church membership and the Lord’s Supper are to be reserved for such baptized believers.

Corey grew up and came to know Christ in San Diego, CA. He married Rebekah in 2008 and together they have four daughters. They lived in South Asia for six years where Corey ran a web development company and trained men for pastoral ministry. It’s there that they gained a deepened love and heightened view of the local church. Corey had a growing and abiding desire to pastor, leading them to move to Virginia in 2021.
He and his family enjoy good books, coffee, hiking, camping, fishing, and most of all fellowship with the saints (Ps. 16:3). He is currently working on his MDiv at SBTS.

We meet at the Bradley Study Center.

We are located at 104 Faculty Street in Blacksburg, VA. Our worship service starts at 10:30 AM on Sunday mornings.
Our services tend to be pretty simple.
We pray, because we believe that God is our provider and that He desires us to seek after Him.
We sing, because God is worthy of our praise.
We preach God’s Word, because we believe that God gives life through His Scriptures.
We proclaim the gospel, because it is the message of salvation for those who don’t know God and the message of strength for those who do know Him.
We talk a lot about Jesus, because He is the only hope for the world.
We believe the songs we sing should be Christ-exalting, God-glorifying, and Scripture-saturated. We sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. We use instruments to encourage the congregation to lift their voices to Jesus with verve and strength. We also believe that there are many songs from various times in history that both honor God and build up the church. In light of this, it isn’t uncommon to hear a song from the 1600s in the same set with a song from recent years.
You’ll find all kinds of people wearing all kinds of different clothing. As long as you’re honoring the Lord with what you’ve got on, we don’t mind if you’re dressed casually in jeans or more formal in a suit.
We welcome and encourage children to join us in corporate worship. It may sound daunting at first, but we believe that over time much fruit will be born in as a result of including children in worship with the body of Christ. We plan to introduce children's Sunday School during a coming 9am Equipping hour. Until then we only have our 10:30 AM service.
First, we are a Christian church. This means that we are a group of Christians, believing the gospel, gathered together to worship God under the preaching of the Word and the right administration of the sacraments.
Second, we are Baptist. This means that we hold that only believers are part of the church. It also means that only believers should be baptized.
Lastly, we are Reformed. This is best summarized with three "C's." Covenental: We believe the whole Bible fits together through Covenants. Confessional: We hold to a historic robust confession of faith (1689), are doctrinal maximalists, not doctrinal minimalists, aiming to grow up into a robust body of doctrine. Calvinistic: We have a high view of God and a low view of man.
Come and visit us and find out more about what it means to follow Christ.
