Five Star Ministry

According to the church’s website, they have five primary “stars” to serve God and His people. One of the stars of their service is worship, where they express their adoration, thanksgiving, respect, and love for God.

According to the website, the discipleship development approach of Central Baptist Church is intentional, systematic, and sustaining. They added that their process cultivates movement from world-centered existing to Christ-centered living.

Stewardship
