WILSON CREEK BAPTIST CHURCH

We are an independent, fundamental, Baptist church. We preach and teach the truth from the word of God, the King James BIble. We preach doctrine and practical application for daily Christian living. Our children are taught in their various classes spiritual truths applied at their level of understanding.

There are many opportunities to be involved in the ministry and community of Wilson Creek Baptist Church.

Wilson Creek Baptist Church is nestled on a hilltop overlooking Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield.

From the Pastor

My wife, Brenda and I have known each other since the 4th grade, 9 years old. We graduated high school together and married shortly thereafter in 1972 (I don’t recommend that for everyone).

I served in the United States Air Force for 7 1/2 years traveling all over the world. Dyess AFB, Abilene, TX, was where I was stationed most of my Air Force career. We surrendered our lives to the Lord at Trinity Baptist Church in Abilene, TX, Bro. Howard Ingram, pastor.

Wilson Creek Baptist is my first pastorate out of Bible College. I took the pastorate on Father’s Day, June 1984. We have spent over half of our lives at Wilson Creek Baptist Church, which I believe is a great thing.

Associate Pastor Rick Jaquess

Brother & Mrs. Jaquess have served at Wilson Creek Baptist Church since 1989. They came to us after ministering in Germany for 9 years through a Baptist church, Christian school and single serviceman’s center focused primarily on American military families. They now oversee our Children’s Ministries, the Turning Point Prison Ministry; both teach a Sunday School class, and serve in other capacities as needed. They have three married children, seven grandchildren, which all live in this area and serve in their respective churches.

ASSOCIATE PASTOR THOMAS ISAACSON
