Music Ministry

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly
as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom,
and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs
with gratitude in your hearts to God.”
(Colossians 3:16 NIV)

From earliest childhood to the grave, music is a major influence on our lives.  In concerts and on the airways, the music we hear is a powerful force in giving us personal direction and in the shaping of the morals of our nation.  It has been said that if one desires to take over a country he would be better served to rewrite their music rather than to rewrite their laws.  So strong is the influence of music on humanity.

The Bible tells us to “teach” and “admonish” each other as we sing.
At First Baptist Church, we try to use music that teaches, corrects and encourages all ages, as well as music that seeks to honor the Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus, as we worship Him.  We also try to provide special music group for almost every age group, where individuals can find a place of service while sharpening their musical abilities.  Some of our groups are as follows:
