Beliefs

We recognize the Holy Bible as the inspired, inerrant, infallible, authoritative, and sufficient Word of God.

We rely on the teachings of the Bible as the basis for any statement of faith.  We accept and uphold the truths outlined in The Baptist Faith and Message, as adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in the year 2000, as a confession of our faith and an instrument of doctrinal accountability.

Each member of SGBC is called to believe and uphold these truths as an expression of our shared faith and the biblical truths we hold to be essential to our life together as a church.

SGBC is an autonomous Baptist church.  We are in voluntary cooperation with the local Baptist association (WMBA), the Arkansas Baptist State Convention (ABSC), and the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC).
