Deep roots
Rocky Cross has stood as a country church where generations have worshiped, served, and marked the major moments of life.
About Us
An old church with a living faith.
For generations this church has stood in the North Carolina countryside as a place to know God and be known by His people. That calling hasn't changed.
Rooted here for nearly a century.
Our Story
Rooted here for nearly a century.
Rocky Cross Baptist Church has gathered faithfully in the country between Zebulon and Middlesex for close to a hundred years. Generations of families have been baptized, married, and laid to rest here. Through changing seasons, the heart of this church has stayed the same: ordinary people, drawn together by an extraordinary God. Today we're a church being renewed - holding tightly to the faith handed down to us while throwing the doors wide open to our neighbors.
Renewed life
We are asking God to renew ordinary people through His Word, real community, and faithful worship.
Open door
You do not have to have church figured out before you come. We want neighbors to know Jesus and be known by His people.
Mission
To know Jesus Christ, to grow together as His family, and to share His love and good news with Zebulon, Middlesex, and the world beyond.
What We Believe
Baptist convictions, centered on Jesus.
Rocky Cross is a Baptist church. Our convictions are summarized below and stated fully in the Baptist Faith & Message (2000).
Our faith is not built on novelty.
We hold to historic Christian truth, preach the Bible as God's Word, and seek to live as a church family shaped by the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Bible
The Bible is God's true and trustworthy Word, the final authority for faith, life, and the mission of the church.
God
There is one living and true God who eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ
Jesus is fully God and fully man, crucified for sinners, risen from the dead, and reigning as Lord.
Salvation
Salvation is God's gift of grace, received through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.
The Church
The church is a family of baptized believers who worship, serve, make disciples, and care for one another.
Our Hope
Jesus will return, make all things new, and bring His people into everlasting life with God.
