our Philosophy of Ministry

our Mission

In accordance with the Great Commands of Matthew 22:37-39 and the Great Commission of Matthew 28:18-20, Santa Clarita Baptist Church exists to Love God, Love Others, and Make Disciples. 

our Vision

The vision of SCBC is clearly expressed in Colossians 1:28– “We proclaim Him, admonishing every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, so that we may present every man complete in Christ” as we desire to exalt the Lord Jesus Christ, establish believers in the faith, equip the church for the work of service, and evangelize the lost.
