ABOUT US

Our Reality:

 

Mount Canaan Baptist Church in Talladega, Alabama is a Bible believing Church. We don’t debate the Bible; we trust all of it from Genesis to Revelation. We believe that God is still saying what He said and doing what He did. We are a people who have been convinced by God that God is all. We have watched God work, felt God move and heard God speak in the deep places of our very essence. We have had prayers answered, observed lives changed, witnessed sick bodies healed, and broken spirits made whole.

 

We are a people who claim the promises of God and we know that it is possible to experience the living power of the living God. We are a people who marvel at the miraculous, as God takes up residence in our finite frames. In the Old Testament, God had a Temple for His people. In the New Testament, God called out a body of people to become the Temple of God. In the past, people went to the Temple but now, at this time, people become the Temple. It is a staggering thought but our finite bodies can become Temples of the Most High God and the Lord Himself desires to become the Royal resident who seeks to live in mortals like us. This truth of the fullness of the indwelling God is vital as we embrace our journey from the wood of the cradle to the marble of the grave. There is no greater truth than to discover that the Great God of glory has condescended to indwell mortals such as us. No wonder Paul wrote, “Christ in you, the hope of glory”. (Colossians 1:27)

 

There is room at the cross and there is room in Mount Canaan for all, so that you might discover the key that unlocks the treasure house of a thousand other spiritual riches. As Pastor of this remarkable church, I extend unto you that exceptional invitation and promise that Moses spoke so profoundly to his brother in-law in route to the Land of Godly Promise. “And Moses said unto Ho-bab; the son of Ra-gu-el and Mid-i-an-ite, Moses’ father in law; We are journeying unto the place of which the Lord said, I will give it you; come thou with us, and we will do thee good; for the Lord hath spoken good concerning Israel”. (Numbers 10:29)

 

Come with us to Mount Canaan Baptist Church, West Battle Street in Talladega, Alabama. We are a people on a journey unto the place of which the Lord said, I will give it to you; come with us and we will do thee good.
