Who We Are
Winning Side Baptist Church was founded on July 30, 2023, with one mission: to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with our community. We are an independent, fundamental, missions-minded church that believes in the power of God's Word to transform lives.
We believe the church should not only minister to the needs of people who attend, but also give those people the opportunity to minister to the needs of others. We make no apology for our conservative beliefs in areas including music, social issues, dress, and behavior.
Pastor Todd Herbert
Pastor • Hyles-Anderson College Graduate (2000) • Army Veteran • Law Enforcement Chaplain • Married to Lidia for 31+ years with four children
Do You Know You're Going to Heaven?
The Bible says that every person is a sinner, and the penalty for sin is eternal separation from God. But God loves you so much that He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to pay that penalty for you.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
John 3:16 — King James BibleSalvation is a free gift — not earned by good works or religion, but received by faith in Jesus Christ alone. Watch this short video to learn how you can know for certain that you are going to Heaven.
I Have QuestionsWhat We Believe
Our faith is rooted in the unchanging Word of God. These core beliefs guide everything we do.
The King James Bible
We believe that the King James Bible is God's perfect, preserved Word for the English-speaking people. It is our sole authority for faith and practice.
Jesus Christ
We believe Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as payment for our sins, and rose from the dead on the third day.
Salvation by Grace
We believe the only way a person may go to Heaven is to place faith in the payment that Jesus Christ provided with His shed blood on the cross. Salvation is by grace through faith alone.
Soul Winning
We believe every Christian has the responsibility and privilege to share the Gospel with others. We are committed to reaching our community and the world with the message of Christ.
Missions-Minded
We believe the local church should support missionaries around the world, planting churches and spreading the Gospel to every nation and people group.
The Local Church
We believe the church should minister to the needs of those who attend and equip them to minister to the needs of others. We are independent of any denomination.
