Fort Madison
First Baptist
About Us
Our mission is to love God, love each other and love our neighbor.
​
First Baptist is a Bible believing, independent, discipling church. We strongly encourage everyone to study the scriptures and become a follower of Jesus Christ. If you are looking for a place to learn how to love God and love others, this is the place for you.
​
The greatest commandment (love God and love others) compels us to follow the great commission (go and disciple).
Our Pastors & Staff
Steve Scott
Lead Pastor
Pastor Steve became the new pastor in November 2023. He and his wife, Cindy Kay Scott feel like this is the sunbelt compared to where they used to live in North Dakota. They have four children. Nicolas is the only one still living at home and is actively involved in First Baptist. They love to disciple individuals, counsel couples and encourage believers to love, study and follow the Bible. We are thrilled they are leading First Baptist with grace and compassion for people!
Mark Bell
Youth Pastor
Mark has been involved with youth ministry most of his adult life and loves to teach apologetics, especially from the book of Genesis. He and his wife, Courtney, have two children. Courtney is a teacher/educator at the Great River Christian School. They love camping, hiking and fossil hunting.
