"...and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,
and to the ends of the earth." - Acts 1:8 NIV
In 1955, not one person in Columbia, SC could watch a worship service by television, that is, until
First Baptist Church began broadcasting their live worship serivce in September of that year. Today,
because of the vision of First Baptist Church, we now reach more than 75,000 viewers each week.
Jesus calls each of us to be His witnesses throughout the world. For over 54 years, First Baptist has
witnessed to "Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria" by broadcasting, first in Columbia, then Myrtle Beach/Florence and
the Greenville areas. In 2006, the television ministry was expanded to the Charleston, SC broadcast
market. Then in 2007, the tremendous advances in technology have allowed First Baptist to begin
broadcasting our live worship services over the internet - "to the ends of the earth." Recently in 2010, we have added
Augusta, GA and Savannah, GA market areas.These are exciting times! We are part of a team sharing
the love of Jesus Christ to people all over the world.
Just think...we are changing the lives of people we have never seen, living in places that we have never been!
Our media team is blessed with some very talented, dedicated volunteers. And our team is growing!
With the recent production room upgrades and additions to our production facility, we need many more
volunteers to serve one or two Sundays per month. Go here to see the description of available positions.
We have a place for you!
