Our Identity
Oakland is an autonomous Baptist church which aligns with the Southern Baptist Convention. We have shared beliefs and value the cooperative partnership to advance the gospel around the world.
Core Values
Our cultural identity is found in our values. They define who we are. These values connect us with our past and provide our foundation for the future.
Our identity is a combination of factors including:
- AUTHORITY OF THE BIBLE
We value the Bible and believe it is God’s Word to us. The Bible is divinely inspired, inerrant and factually true. As a church and individuals, we study it, believe it, and submit to its authority.
- WORSHIP
We value authentic worship as the ultimate end for which we were created. Rejoicing in the infinite, inexhaustible power, holiness, and beauty of God, we experience the height of joy as we celebrate Him.
- PRAYER
We value scripture-fed, Spirit-led, worship-based prayer as a privilege and means for the child of God to connect to Him in relationship. It is through prayer we display our dependence upon Him and advance the Kingdom of God.
- OUTREACH
We value the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ by every believer and are committed to training, equipping and mobilizing disciples in sharing their faith locally and globally.
- DISCIPLESHIP
We value believers growing in faith to become mature followers of Jesus Christ who can mentor others in their faith journey.
- COMMUNITY OF BELIEVERS
We value fellowship that encourages, builds up and serves one another through relationship, partnership, companionship, and stewardship.
- FAMILY
We value strong families as foundational for a strong church and are committed to providing resources and helping hands to grow God-centered families.
Make Disciples Who
- Connect with God and People
- Grow in relationship with Christ

To know God and to make Him known.
Oakland Baptist envisions a church that succeeds in connecting people to God, seeing people grow in their relationship with God, and has church members producing fruit through service and outreach.
Oakland's Core Values
We believe that in order to move to where God wants us to go, we must prioritize and focus our efforts. These core values align to our Mission and move us toward our Vision. We need the entire church family to plug into where God has uniquely prepared them to serve within the body of Christ here at Oakland.
