Martindale Baptist Church’s purpose is to know Jesus Christ and make Jesus Christ known to others. MBC does this through:
- Evangelism - to be a dynamic spiritual body empowered by the Holy Spirit to teach, baptize, and disciple as many people as possible (Matthew 28:18-20)
- Worship - to be a worshiping fellowship which experiences the awesome presence of God and responds in obedience to His leadership (Matthew 22:36-40)
- Disciple - to help members grow in the knowledge of God and man through Bible teaching, training, and education (Matthew 28:18-20, Acts 2:42-47)
- Ministry - to minister in Jesus’ name to the physical and spiritual needs of all people in our church, our community, and our world (Matthew 22:36-40 and Acts 1:8)
- Fellowship - to gather together to seek every opportunity for the purpose of stirring up love and good works through encouragement and exhortation (Hebrews 10:23-25)
- Prayer - to be a fellowship whose members pray daily and gather weekly for prayer in order to know the will of God for our lives and for our church (1 Chronicles 16:11, Ephesians 6:18, 1 Thessalonians 5:17)
