At Alabama City Church we teach and preach only what is in the holy scriptures of God Almighty. We don't try to change the gospels meaning, and we don't "preach to please." We preach the uncompromised "Word of God", so that there's always truth in our scriptural message. In the sermons from Pastor Tony Franklin and Pastor Chuck Durham; SOUND BIBLICAL DOCTRINE will always stand out.
Music Ministry
When It comes to Praise & Worship music. Our ladies Andrea and Phyllis from their gospel group "Holdin' Ground" always give it all they've got. Blending Praise and Worship music in such a unique style and conviction that Heaven hears it all and rejoices. Our Alabama City Church Ladies Chorus are also always ready to bring musical hymns that will bless your spirit and soul. We're proud of our Alabama City Church music ministry. And you will be too.

Kids, Kids, Kids! We've got plenty of them. And we praise God for our children and the teachings they are receiving about the Bible in our Alabama City Churches - Children's Church. They are led by a marvelous teacher Sandra Williams who has been active in children's ministry for many years. We are honored to have a Children's Bible teacher who is in love with children; and want them to truly know the Bible at a young age. What a blessing!
