Welcome to the Wildwood Web-site.  I hope that you find it helpful and informative. 

What is Wildwood Baptist Church?  We are a family of believers who desire to seek God, minister to the needs of people, and grow in encouragement, fellowship, and love toward each other.  We are a conservative fellowship of believers who fully support the efforts of the Southern Baptist Convention and who give faithfully to the cooperative program.  Through the cooperative program we can help support the needs of missionaries around the world who share the good news of our Lord Jesus.  We are a community church and we have a great desire to see our community, our city, and our county faithfully seek to know the Lord Jesus Christ.

Everyone is welcome at Wildwood!  Come and visit, enjoy the worship experience, fellowship with a group of believers and let's see God work.

     One of the areas of interest that we have been looking at here at Wildwood recently concerns our daily spiritual walk.  Are we taking quality time to mature our relationship with Jesus?  I'm afraid that some allow Sunday morning service to be their classroom, study hall and prayer closet all rolled into one.  Here is the question of the day, "What has God showed you recently about Himself?"  You really need to give this some thought.  Don't just come up with a quick Sunday School answer.
     Recently, Mary Beth and I took our girls over to the Biltmore House in Ashville, N.C. to see Steven Curtis Champman.  He performed outside on the south terrace to the back drop of the beautiful Smoky Mountains.  It was a great location and the evening could not have been better.  Several songs into the evening as Steven was singing the song "Yours" the sun began to set.  It was one of those "WOW" moments.  With the words being sung and the back drop of the sunset it made you realize that everything is indeed Gods.  The day, the hour, the moment.  Everyone began to look at (many taking pictures of)  the sunset.  Every once in a while we get those moments when God reminds us that He is the creator and He gives us glimpses of His great work.
     You see, I think God really does want to show Himself to us, but we have to be willing to look, and not just with our eyes but with our heart.  Let me give you a couple of ideas.  Listen quietly to a few songs that may help put you in a worship moment.  Maybe the song "Yours" sung by Steven Curtis Chapman, or the song "How Great Is Our God" sung by Chris Tomlin.  Spend some time in the Word.  Consider the passage from Psalm 95: 1-5.  Let it settle in your heart.
     Let God show Himself to you today.  I think you will be amazed!

Until next time,

Bro. Craig
