The Springfield church of Christ

About Us

The Springfield church of Christ is a growing congregation of believers baptized into Jesus Christ.  While there are numerous other churches of Christ throughout the world, we are in no way tied to any inter-congregational or denominational organization including The United church Of Christ or The International church Of Christ.  We are undenominational and have no central headquarters or president.  The head of the church is none other than Jesus Christ himself (Ephesians 1:22-23).

Each congregation of the churches of Christ is autonomous, and it is the Word of God that unites us into One Faith (Ephesians 4:3-6).  We follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and his holy Apostles, and not the teachings of man.  We believe the gospel makes Christians and Christians only!

We have bound ourselves to be obligated to no creed other than that which we find in the Bible, which we recognize as an inspired revelation from God.  Accepting the New Testament as our final authority, we try to organize, worship and work within the confines of what is clearly revealed in Scripture.  We simply try to follow after the pattern of the church you read about in the New Testament.

The Springfield church of Christ's members do not hesitate to speak out upon the moral, ethical and religious issues of our times, the solutions for which we firmly believe are in God's word.

We have an aggressive program of teaching our members from both pulpit and in Bible classes.  Our curriculum for the young classes has especially been created by concerned parents and teachers that are interested in instilling Biblical principles in the minds of our young people.  Several of the men take an interest in pulpit preaching during the month and in teaching various Bible classes.  As well, we schedule regular ladies classes that are taught and developed for women by women.  We regularly update our curriculum and Bible classes to try and include relevant topical studies along with scriptural examinations.  Additionally, we encourage private Bible studies in the homes of members and non-members alike.

For almost ???? years the Springfield congregation has been interested and supportive of overseas work as we take seriously Christ's commission to take the gospel into all the world.

We believe you will find a warm, caring, family atmosphere at our congregation.  Our lessons are presented with Bible truth.  We have a bright future and we would love for you to be a part of this first century church going into the 21st century.  The Springfield congregation is at peace and works hard to maintain the brotherly love and close family atmosphere which prevails among our members.  Our visitors and newcomers often tell us that our two most attractive qualities are our Bible-based teaching and the friendliness of the members.
