Worship Ministry
What is Worship?
Worship is not about performance—it's an expression of devotion to the living Creator of all things. At First Baptist , we believe corporate worship is meant to be shared as a community. God has both created and commanded us to lift our voices in praise, and in light of what He has accomplished through His Son, Jesus Christ, we are moved to respond. For believers, there is no greater honor than to worship the almighty Triune God.

The Praise Band has weekly rehearsals on Wednesday (7:30pm-8:30pm) and Sunday (8:15am-9:00am). Our church is blessed to have a team that is comprised of acoustic guitar, bass guitar, electric guitar, drums, piano, keys, and vocalists. Although our members are at different levels of proficiency, it is important to be familiar with chords in different keys and be able to play within a group setting. If you have an interest in joining the praise band or have any questions, please reach out to Hunter (hunter.dickens@firstcrockett.org) to set up a meeting.
Our A/V Team (Audio/Visual Team) is comprised of three different positions: Proclaim (our slide program), Sound, and Livestream. While these positions can be advanced, we try our best to make it as simple as possible for our volunteers. We would love for one to have experience before applying but it is not required. Before joining this team, you will need to have training (provided by the church). If you would like to join the A/V Team or have any questions, please contact Hunter (hunter.dickens@firstcrockett.org) or Anthony (anthony.mathis@firstcrockett.org).
