Ridgeland Drive Baptist Church

There is no shortage of Baptist churches in Pickens County. However, it’s a rare one that expects its pastor to “prepare and deliver scholarly”—that’s right—“scholarly, biblically-based, and challenging sermons.” It’s a rare one that declares that it ordains “whomever we perceive as gifted for ministry, male or female.” And it’s a rare one that says, “We willingly share and accept the opinions of every member as one is led by the Holy Spirit.” (You can read more on our Mission, Vision, & Values page.

If you are looking for that rare kind of fellowship, we would love for you to find it with us at 185 Ridgeland Drive in Six Mile. For many of us, that kind of fellowship is worth the drive from Central, Liberty, Pickens, and Seneca. Not all of us who attend regularly are Baptists, though most of us are. Not all of us are originally “from around here,” though some us can show you where our “old homeplace” was or still stands. Regardless, all of us are a “family of faith” (Galatians 6:10) to one another, no exceptions, no exclusions. If you are looking for that kind of church, you are one of us already and just don’t know it yet. As Philip said to Nathanael, “Come and see!” (John 1:46).

Sunday worship “on the ridge” across from Six Mile Mountain starts at 10 a.m. (Sunday School is at 9). Most of us dress casually most of the time. Smiles and handshakes are in ready supply. Hugs are optional.

We hope to see you soon!
