It is our final authority, our basis for teaching, and our unshakable foundation. BAPTIST: We are Baptists because we believe that the Bible teaches those distinctive doctrines which Baptists have historically believed. CHURCH: We believe that the local church is not a building, but a group of believers gathered together to worship the Lord, edify each other, and evangelize the lost. https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/hymns daily 0.75 2023-01-27 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/ourpastor daily 0.75 2021-05-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1620179511301-ZVKRIP3140H0ERKGQ2NT/Family+Portrait+walgreens+color.jpg Our Pastor - Russell Boone Russell Boone is our pastor. He has a wife (Tammy) and 3 boys (Philip, Andrew, James). Pastor Russ was born in Anchorage, Alaska and was raised in Bangor, Maine. He was converted and later baptized at the age of 20 while under the ministry of Pastor Ron Bean of Grace Bible Church in Bangor. As a child he grew up in independent Baptist churches and attended Christian schools. After high school graduation, he attended Word of Life Bible Institute in Schroon Lake, New York, for the 1-year Bible program. It was shortly after this that he first truly received Christ as Savior. After being born again, he moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan, to attend Baptist Bible Institute (a ministry of Wealthy Park Baptist Church). In Michigan, he met Tammy, and about a year later they were married. They moved to Warren, Maine, where they worked in Calvary Baptist Church and attended Calvary Bible Institute. From Maine they moved to Santa Monica, California, in 1995, to work in Bible Baptist Church under the ministry of Pastor Ross Hodsdon. Russ served as assistant pastor for about 5 years, after which he became the senior pastor. Tammy Boone was born in Elgin, Illinois and was raised in Beckley, West Virginia. For several years she attended and served in Mt. Tabor Baptist Church. She attended Appalachian Bible College and Grand Rapids Baptist College (later renamed Cornerstone University). While at Grand Rapids Baptist College, she worked in Wealthy Park Baptist Church, where she met and married Russ. She earned her B.A. in education and homeschooled Philip, Andrew, and James. https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/contact-us1 daily 0.75 2021-06-03 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/about daily 0.75 2021-06-03 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/resources daily 0.75 2021-05-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1620175443408-V4Y4IQSZ6YAMC9846SIH/unsplash-image-eMP4sYPJ9x0.jpg Resources - Recommended Reading The Bible is the best book, since it is the Word of God. But there are many good Christian books that are spiritually edifying which our church recommends. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1620192055338-IA8NRDNHJ4NB6XBS0PFH/unsplash-image-DRgrzQQsJDA.jpg Resources - Sermons Our pastor preaches and teaches from the Bible.

Pastor Russ Boone and his friend Tom Baker have worked on several original hymns which are included on this page. There are also some old hymns with new arrangements. It is our hope that the hymns will be useful to God's people everywhere. Though they are copywrited, permission is granted to print and photocopy as long as nothing is altered and the copies are not used for financial gain. https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/sermons daily 0.75 2021-06-02 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/our-missionaries daily 0.75 2024-08-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/d879b740-01c9-463c-8169-e97ea652bd99/Georges.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622763631344-CREY2IZ0G8ISMOBOW8TV/Picture1.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622764257634-1OJ2YNAYMIXX36MQS1EO/Champeons.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/e596c644-0ae1-4581-80bf-bcf5d639dc87/Nick.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622764108742-BVKO5UM8OSDC08X6DM95/Cayots.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622765242992-49C2TNDIO4NIZ7S02C3D/27907_4889274029939_1222932547_n.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622765012119-38YN4U4RCMRTME7QNV3Q/Kallins.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622764715018-9TQ9652DKWEHMSO2J66J/Fulks.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622765714617-PYAHG4LU00B7ALZH94J7/178628_378983178847220_956596427_o.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622766235222-CT1CEMW0NZ8VDZFQ98CN/12182893_870773406369297_2020016339775564648_o.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622765558553-TJ71X5IJBQOA8LS3HHS0/Lossings+2.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622766344588-Z1054LVKO7GB2M5IJ78S/Picture3.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622766438905-I98PQOUC71N6M8SIUIHV/Alisha+Stensaas.jpg Our Missionaries https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1622766697385-93HK5NH1FVGF3PMGP6VL/Thornburgs.jpg Our Missionaries https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/our-gospel daily 0.75 2021-05-18 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/ourservices daily 0.75 2024-03-09 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/recommendedreading daily 0.75 2021-05-05 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/our-history daily 0.75 2021-05-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1621379173933-PWSKE5JX7HVJGLNVPYZI/old+church+%282%29.jpg Our History - The church began as Immanuel Bible Church. It was started when Pastor Peter Wall and his wife moved to Santa Monica in 1940 to work with a ministry at UCLA. They noticed that Santa Monica was a booming town because of the Douglas Aircraft factory. There were many families but few churches. God worked in amazing ways and within a year there was a new congregation and church building on 20th St. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1621381560870-6VX76OPBPE20OR77713J/cars.jpg Our History - A new addition was added to the church building in 1947, with classrooms, a kitchen, a fellowship room, and a back patio. In 1950, the name Immanuel Bible Church was changed to Bible Baptist Church, and the next year the church joined the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches. In 1957, a baptistry was added. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60918986f476d02939d3a263/1621381883875-0VNHQEK6F9THDQGUMP7J/unnamed+%286%29.jpg Our History - Through its history, God has called the following men to pastor the church: Peter Wall (1940-1954), Douglas Beason (1954-1959), Carl Hills (1959-1963), William Koltovich (1963-1967), Don Opfer (1967-1975), Carl Sweazy (1975-1976), Bill Brown (1976-1984), David Einer (1985-1990), Rex Wright (1990-1994), Ross Hosdson (1995-2000), and Russ Boone (1995-present). The church as seen many ups and downs over the years, but God has been faithful to keep us as a light to the Santa Monica community. https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/faqaboutgod daily 0.75 2024-10-29 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/terms-of-service-3 daily 0.75 2024-10-22 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/terms-of-service-3-1 daily 0.75 2024-10-29 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/terms-of-service-3-3 daily 0.75 2024-10-22 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/terms-of-service-3-4 daily 0.75 2024-10-29 https://www.biblebaptist-sm.com/terms-of-service-3-5 daily 0.75 2024-10-29
