Who is Gospel Light?
About Us
Gospel Light has been ministering to the Kansas City area since 1926. It was originally named Fairview Baptist Church but was changed to Gospel Light Baptist Church in 2018 when we relocated to our current location. GLBC remains a bible-believing, New Testament, soulwinning church and by God’s grace will continue until the Lord’s return.

Core Values of Gospel Light
01
We center all we do on Christ. In all things, we seek to give Christ the preeminence. (Colossians 1:18, Revelation 4:11, 1 Corinthians 10:31)
02
We submit to God’s Word. Above all, we want to please God and stay true to His Word. We would rather be biblical than be popular. (2 Timothy 3:14-17, Acts 5:29, 2 Timothy 1:13)
03
We engage with the gospel. The truths of God’s Word apply equally to every generation and every background. Sharing the life-changing truth of the gospel is the most compassionate and important endeavor in which we can be involved. (Matthew 28:18-20, 1 Timothy 2:3-6)
04
We enjoy serving Jesus. We enjoy church life. Serving God is not simply a duty. It is fun, so we serve together with joy and passion. It is the outflowing of Christ in us. (Psalm 100:2, Nehemiah 8:10)
05
We live by faith. We believe God is able. We strive to be excellent. We sacrifice, believing God will replenish. (Ecclesiastes 9:10, Philippians 3:13-14, Daniel 6:3)
Vision of Gospel Ligtht
To obey the Great Commission by proclaiming through local and world mission outreach that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation; baptizing, then discipling every believer, fostering spiritual growth and personal ministry.
