About Us:

First Southern is a Southern Baptist Church serving the community of Overland Park, KS. Established in 1959 First Southern has provided a place for individuals and families to pursue a personal relationship with God. That relationship begins with a profession of faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior (Romans 10:8,9&13). 

Following New Testament baptism a Christian finds a place of service to honor God and to grow in his own personal relationship. The church looks to the Bible as a true and relevant expression of the will of God to all of His creation. As it is God’s word it is not easily understood and falls to the charge  of being out of date.

The task of the Bible is to identify sin in the life of an individual and to provide a way of cleansing from sin. This is seen as judgmental when in fact it is the first step in healing. After a faith search the believer will find that the Bible is, in fact, always accurate and appropriate to the full and meaningful life of a believer (2 Timothy 3:16,17).

The Bible is God’s Word to Man, our standard for faith and practice as a church. We believe that every individual is accountable to God for everything they say and do. The fellowship of a church is to provide for the encouragement and growth of all members (Hebrews 10:25). We seek God’s leadership and are accountable to Him first and foremost.

Our membership is open to all who will accept these principles as governing guidelines for your participation in the fellowship of First Southern Baptist Church of Overland Park.
