ABOUT US
Who we are, where we come from and where we are going as a church family.
WHO WE ARE
At Mountain View Baptist Church, everything we do is centered on one thing: Jesus Christ. We are a family of believers who have found hope, freedom, and joy in Jesus, and we want as many people as possible to experience that same life-changing transformation. Our mission is simple: to glorify God by building lives committed to Jesus. We are a Bible-based church affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention.
More than just a place to attend on Sundays, Mountain View is a community where you can belong—a place where you are part of something bigger than yourself. Life is not meant to be lived alone, and God calls us to walk this journey of faith together.
OUR STORY
Mountain View Baptist Church was founded in 1987 by a group of believers from First Southern Baptist Church Tucson who had a vision to plant a welcoming, Christ-centered church on the northwest side of the city. On October 4, 1987, we gathered for the first time, and ever since, we have been committed to sharing the gospel, discipling believers, and serving our community.
OUR MISSION
We exist to glorify God and make disciples by building lives that are fully devoted to Jesus Christ.
OUR VALUES
Living for Jesus
Jesus teaches that our relationship with God is the most important one we will ever have—greater than any other relationship in our lives. We are called to follow Him wholeheartedly.
"Whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple." – Luke 14:27
Living by His Word
The Bible is the foundation for how we live and follow Jesus. It teaches us God’s design for life and how to walk in obedience to Him.
"Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them." – John 14:21
Living for the Family
We are a unified church body, committed to learning, growing, caring for one another, and worshiping together. Every believer plays a vital role in the body of Christ.
"Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ." – 1 Corinthians 12:12
Living Inside Out
Faith in Jesus transforms us from the inside out. As His followers, we are called to share the gospel, bringing His light into our homes, workplaces, and communities.
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." – Matthew 28:19-20
At Mountain View, we believe our mission is best carried out through local and international missions, community service, church planting, and equipping believers for ministry.
MEASURING SPIRITUAL GROWTH
A growing disciple of Jesus will reflect these four practices in their daily life:
-
Have I met with God today? (Through prayer, worship, and time in His Word)
-
Have I connected with a fellow believer this week? (Encouraging and building up the body of Christ)
-
Is my next service project on the calendar? (Living out our faith through acts of love and service)
-
Have I shared Jesus with someone this week? (Actively making disciples)
