Get off the bench and get in the game – PLUG IN FOR CHANGE! MAKE THE COMMITMENT Our Vision “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." As we transition into 2025, we are aligning our vision with Christ at the center, focusing on children, church, and community. The C4 Generosity Initiative is an opportunity for us to come together as a church family to build a lasting legacy—empowering future leaders and strengthening the mission of our church for generations to come. Plug-in to Christ As the head of the church, all we do falls under Christ’s Lordship. He is the foundation of our leadership, guiding every decision, ministry, and action. Rooted in biblical teachings, our mission reflects His love, grace, and truth. We prioritize spiritual growth through prayer, study, and worship while serving others with compassion, following Christ’s example. Through a Christ-centered community, we strive to reflect His character, keeping Him at the heart of everything we do. Plug-in to Church We are committed to offering engaging and transformative worship experiences, both in-person and online, to help people connect with God. By investing in facilities and technology, we aim to create an environment that enhances worship, whether through physical spaces or digital platforms. Discipleship remains at the heart of our mission, fostering spiritual maturity through group studies, classes, and mentorship programs. Additionally, we are focused on eliminating church debt to strengthen our financial position, enabling greater investment in ministry and future growth. Through financial stewardship, we teach and model biblical principles, encouraging generosity and the wise use of resources to support the church’s mission. Plug-in to Children Plug-in to Children Plug-in to Children Our NexGen Youth and Exalt Young Adults Ministry are growing, and we must equip them to be the next leaders.

Through leadership development, we provide opportunities for young people to serve, lead, and cultivate their God-given gifts. We strive to create safe and inclusive spaces where children and young adults feel welcome, valued, and supported. Plug-in to Community Building on our impact in the John Barrow community, we are expanding outreach efforts to serve and uplift those around us. Through local programs, strategic partnerships, and community service, we address immediate needs while fostering lasting connections. Evangelism remains at our core as we share Christ’s message and welcome others into our ministries. By continually enhancing our strategies, we ensure sustained growth and a greater collective impact. Your Role in this Initiative We invite everyone to “Plug-In”—to get involved in ministries that empower and grow the body of Christ. This initiative encourages us to plug into the vision of Christ, strengthen our church, invest in our children and young adults, and reach out to our community.

It is true! Great things sometime start small. God has a way of using ordinary people to do the extraordinary, and that's exactly what he did for us in 1957. Learn more about our church history here. 69 YEARS OF HISTORY Our History: How It All Began Founded in faith and obedience, Second Baptist Church began on January 11, 1957, when eighteen believers gathered in the home of Lewis and Minnie Rawlings after being led by God to establish a new church. From humble beginnings—meeting in homes and a renovated boarding house—SBC steadily grew through prayer, sacrifice, and committed leadership. Over the decades, SBC experienced continual spiritual and physical growth. The church acquired land, constructed its first permanent sanctuary on Tatum Street, and expanded facilities under the leadership of successive pastors. Ministries flourished, deacons and ministers were ordained, and organizations such as the Willing Workers Club, Pastor’s Aid Club, and Youth Department played vital roles in strengthening the church’s mission and resources. Major milestones included relocating to 1709 John Barrow Road, eliminating mortgage debt in 2001, expanding seating capacity, constructing the Family Life Center, and later building the Dome worship facility completed in 2014. SBC also embraced a season of “one church, two locations,” expanded community outreach, and adapted through challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic. In September 2022, God sent Dr. Maurice Watson to serve as Senior Pastor. Under his leadership, SBC has emphasized unity, transparency, growth, and community engagement. From 2022–2024, membership increased significantly, baptisms grew, governance structures were strengthened, facilities improved, and outreach expanded across Little Rock and surrounding areas. Today, SBC continues to fulfill its God-given assignment—growing spiritually, serving the community, and advancing the Kingdom—guided by the enduring vision captured in Pastor Watson’s call: “Let’s Grow Together.” Read Full History Our Constitution 2nd Home Testimonial Part 3 Play Video 2nd Home Testimonial Part 1 Play Video 2nd Home Testimonial Part 2 Play Video Watch Now Facebook Twitter Pinterest Tumblr Copy Link Link Copied Close our 2nd stories For 69 years, Second Baptist has been a place of faith, growth, and family. Hear why our members call Second home—and share your story with us. Our Beliefs: Articles of Faith The Scriptures We believe that the Holy Bible was written by men divinely inspired, and is a perfect treasure of heavenly instruction; that it has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth without any mixture of error for its matter; that it reveals the principles by which God will judge us; and therefore is, and shall remain to the end of the world, the true center of Christian union, and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creeds, and opinions shall be tried. The True God We believe the Scriptures teach that there is one and only one, living and true God, an infinite, intelligent Spirit, whose name is Jehovah, the Maker and Supreme Ruler of heaven and earth; inexpressibly glorious in holiness, and worthy of all possible honor, confidence and love; that in the unity of the Godhead there are three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, equal in every divine perfection, and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption. The Fall of Man We believe the Scriptures teach that man was created in holiness, under the law of his Maker, but by voluntary transgression, fell from that holy and happy state; in consequence of which all mankind are now sinners, not by constraint but choice; being by nature utterly void of that holiness required by the law of God, positively inclined to evil; and therefore under just condemnation to eternal ruin, without defense or excuse. The Way of Salvation We believe that the Scriptures teach that the salvation of sinners is wholly of grace; through the mediatory offices of the Son of God; who by the appointment of the Father, freely took upon Him our nature, yet without sin; honored the divine law by His personal obedience, and by His death made a full atonement for our sins; that having risen from the dead, He is now enthroned in heaven; and uniting in His wonderful person the tenderest sympathies with divine perfections; He is in every way qualified to be a suitable, compassionate, and all-sufficient Savior. Justification We believe the Scriptures teach that the great Gospel blessing which Christ secures to such as believe in Him is justification; that justification includes the pardon of sin, and the promise of eternal life on principles of righteousness; and is bestowed, not in consideration of any works of righteousness which we have done, but solely through faith in the Redeemer’s blood; by virtue of which faith His perfect righteousness is freely imputed to us of God; that it brings us into a state of most blessed peace and favor with God, and secures every other blessing needful for time and eternity. The Freeness of Salvation We believe that the Scriptures teach that the blessings of salvation are made free to all by the Gospel; that it is the immediate duty of all to accept them by cordial, penitent, and obedient faith; and that nothing prevents the salvation of the greatest sinner on earth, but his own determined depravity and voluntary rejection of the Gospel; which rejection involves him in an aggravated condemnation. Regeneration We believe that the Scriptures teach that in order to be saved, sinners must be regenerated, or born again; that regeneration consists in giving a holy disposition to the mind that it is effected in a manner above our comprehension by the power of the Holy Spirit in connection with divine truths, so as to secure our voluntary obedience to the Gospel; and that its proper evidence appears in the holy fruits of repentance and faith, and newness of life. Repentance and Faith We believe that the Scriptures teach that repentance and faith are sacred duties, and also inseparable graces, wrought in our souls by the regenerating Spirit of God; whereby being deeply convinced of our guilt, danger and helplessness and the way of salvation by Christ, we turn to God with unfeigned contrition, confession, and supplication for mercy; at the same time heartily receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as our prophet, priest, and king, and relying on Him alone as the only and all sufficient Savior. God's Purpose of Grace We believe the Scriptures teach that election is the eternal purpose of God, according to which he graciously regenerates, sanctifies and saves sinner; that being perfectly consistent with the free will of man, it comprehends all the means in connection with the end; that it is a most glorious display of God’s sovereign goodness, being infinitely free, wise, holy and unchangeable; that it utterly excludes boasting and promotes humility, love, prayer, praise, trust in God, and active imitation of his free mercy; that it encourages the use of means in the highest degree; that it may be ascertained by its effects in all who truly believe that Gospel; that it is the foundation of Christian assurance; and that to ascertain it with regard to ourselves demands and deserves the utmost diligence. Sanctification We believe the Scriptures teach that Sanctification is the process by which, according to the will of God, we are made partakers of His holiness; that it is a progressive work; that it is begun in regeneration; and that it is carried on in the hearts of believers by the presence and power of the Holy Spirit, the Sealer and Comforter, in the continual use of the appointed means especially the Word of God, self-examination, self-denial, watchfulness, and prayer. Perseverance of Saints We believe the Scriptures teach that such only are real believers as endure to the end; that their persevering attachment to Christ is the grand mark which distinguishes them from superficial professors; that a special Providence watches over their welfare; and they are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation. The Law and Gospel We believe the Scriptures teach that the Law of God is the eternal and unchangeable rule of his moral government; that it is holy, just and good; and that the inability which the Scriptures ascribe to fallen men to fulfill its precepts, arise entirely from their love of sin; to deliver them from which, and to restore them through a Mediator to unfeigned obedience to the holy Law, is one great end of the Gospel, and of the Means of Grace connected with the establishment of the visible church. A Gospel Church We believe the Scriptures teach that a visible church of Christ is a congregation of baptized believers, associated by covenants in the faith and fellowship of the Gospel; observing the ordinances of Christ; governed by his laws; and exercising the gifts, rights, and privileges invested in them by His Word; that its only scriptural officers are Bishops or Pastors, and Deacons whose qualifications, claims and duties are defined in the Epistles to Timothy and Titus. Baptism and The Lord's Supper We believe the Scriptures teach that Christian baptism is the immersion in water of a believer, into the name of the Father, and Son, and Holy Ghost; to show forth in a solemn and beautiful emblem, our faith in the crucified, buried, and risen Savior, with its effect, in our death to sin and resurrection to a new life; that is prerequisite to the privileges of a church relation; and to the Lord’s Supper, in which the members of the church, by the sacred use of bread and wine, are to commemorate together the dying love of Christ; preceded always by solemn self-examination.

CIRCLE OF LOVE ACTS 2:46-47 PRINCIPLE Here at the 2nd, we believe God has placed us into the body of Christ to be a church that loves and cares for one another, to be a living witness for the community and to reach out to other believers throughout our city and the state. At the 2nd, we have the “Circle of Love” ministry that is exclusive to caring for the members of our church.

The leaders serve the “Circle” by calling, caring, corralling and communicating. What better way to get to know your brothers and sisters in Christ. Acts 2:46-47 Principle The Membership performed the work of the ministry in small groups. Relationships were formed through fellowship…. Spiritual Perfection took place…. Unity was more evidenced…. Personal needs were met…. And God Continually added to the church!!!! Each COL Leader works with other leaders as a team with focused duties for a period of time…building MOTIVATION & ENCOURAGEMENT!

Our dedicated leaders are committed to ensuring that our nursery students feel safe, loved, and engaged during their time with us. From interactive playtime to age-appropriate lessons, we strive to create a positive and enriching experience for every child in our care. Children's Church It is imperative to educate children and teenagers about the Bible so that they can grow in the word of God. NexGen Children's Church is an excellent resource for parents who want instill a love for the Bible in their children. By relating the teachings of the Bible to trending topics, NexGen Children's Church makes learning about the Bible fun and engaging for young people. This approach helps children and teenagers develop a strong foundation of faith that will serve them well throughout their lives. Middle School Middle school is a crucial time for students to develop their faith and understanding of God's word. By gaining a biblical education, students can deepen their relationship with God and learn how to apply biblical principles to their daily lives. Encouraging students to continue studying God's word can help them grow spiritually and become strong, faithful leaders in their communities. High School High school can be a challenging time for many students, especially when the world around them encourages conformity over individuality. However, there are those who choose to follow their own path and stay true to their faith, even when it's not the popular choice. These students are the ones who defy the odds and inspire others to do the same. With determination and a strong sense of purpose, they show that it's possible to stand out from the crowd and make a positive impact on the world.
