ABOUT US

The vision of Meridian Baptist Church centers on people. People are our vision--seeing people come to a personal understanding and eternal relationship with our living Lord Jesus Christ.

Our vision is reaching people with the message of Jesus Christ and bringing them into the loving fellowship of Meridian Baptist Church to nurture and disciple them into a mature follower of Jesus Christ that is able to win others and develop them as well. It is the vision of the church that God has placed us in a particular place to minister to the people of the South Knoxville community.

Our vision is to fill our church to capacity, to provide facilities and ministries that will win and develop believers and to continue to expand these facilities and ministries as God allows.

Our vision is also worldwide, as we support the Cooperative Program and all mission offerings; but with the establishment of the Missionary Home, our vision is to bring missions home and to develop a greater desire for mission giving and mission involvement in the years ahead.
