Welcome to First Baptist Church!

First Baptist Church has one purpose: To help people in our community and around the world know God, love God, and serve God. It is our vision to become a growing community of committed, caring Christians who reach out to unchurched people across Ocean County, helping them become the people God wants them to be through combined ministries of relevant Bible instruction, contemporary worship, and compassionate service.

Summer Sundays @ the Shore

Starting on Sunday, July 18th, we will be meeting for Sunday morning worship downstairs in Fellowship Hall while the sanctuary renovations are underway.    During this time, it's OK to leave the jackets, ties, and dresses at home and come dressed more casually as we all join together in this less formal setting.

    The Greatest of These

Not all things are equally important in life or in the church.  Some things are more important than others.  One thing is more important than everything else!  For five Sundays, our pastor will talk about “The Greatest of These,” helping us make most important in our lives that which God says marks us as His true followers.
