Reformed Baptist Church of Louisville

The Reformed Baptist Church of Louisville exists to glorify God.

Our purpose is to glorify God by maintaining and promoting His worship, edifying His saints, and evangelizing sinners. Therefore, we are committed to the proclamation of God’s perfect Law and of the glorious Gospel of His grace through all the world, to the defense of that “faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 3), and to the pure and faithful celebration of the ordinances of the New Covenant.

What to expect

Our service

Traditional

What to wear

Business casual is typical, but you will find anything from jeans to suits.

For the children

We have a nursery for children ages 3 and under. For children that are still learning to sit in the service, we have a child training room available.

Our services are marked by a high view of God expressed in serious and joyful God-centered worship. We have simple services in which each aspect is rooted in scriptural commands. We engage in Scripture reading; the congregational singing of psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; prayer; and the expository preaching of God’s word.
