Established July 27, 1986
 

Nestled between two fields in the southern rural part of Montgomery County is where Bethel is located.  We have a
saying at Bethel that has been part of our slogan since Bethel was founded. 

                                               
        
       "CHURCH A LIVE AND WORTH THE DRIVE". 

We are located around 17 miles from Clarksville, TN and are about 8 miles from the Houston County line and around 8 miles from the Dickson County line.  So whether you live in Montgomery, Houston or Dickson County, Bethel is the place for you.  We are a friendly and loving church that strives to follow the Holy Spirit in everything that we endeavor.

Currently we are looking into the expansion of our church since we are continually growing in leaps and bounds.

Bethel Baptist Church was formed from members of Hopewell Baptist Church seeking to fulfill God's work through another local church. Our first service was held in the Old Store House Building in Shiloh, now known as L & L Pizza. With 61 Charter Members the Lord was soon blessings us with the land to build His new church. Bethel Baptist soon began preparation to build and with God's guidance and direction, Bethel Baptist Church was erected.

Bro. Paul Adams and Millie along with their two daughters, Tammy and Michelle served God's Ministry from 1986 until 1989. Tammy was our pianist.

After the departure of Bro. Adams, Bro Warren Wright and Vicki along with their daughter Rachel served God's Ministry from 1989 until 1992. Vicki was our pianist.

Beginning in 1993 our church took off in leaps and bounds as Dr. Ted Denny and Patricia (Tricia) along with their two
daughters Dana and Kimberly were called into God's Ministry at Bethel. Bro. Ted and Tricia have now added two more children to their family, two sons, Michael and Matthew, they are blessings from God through answered prayers.

As with any endeavor there have been hard times and good times at Bethel, but with the Faith and Leadership of our members, God has prevailed and Bethel is still winning Souls for Christ!

Bethel has received several honors over the past seven years, the Tennessee Baptist Convention has honored Bethel for
Outstanding Achievement in the number of Baptisms for 1996, 1997 and 1998. Southern Seminary has honored Bethel as being in the Top 4% of all Southern Baptist Churches for baptisms in 1998, 2000, 2002, 2003 and 2004.

Today we are still growing more than ever. We have the largest enrollment we have ever had and with the prayers and
commitment of our Leadership and Members great things are happening and lives are still being changed by the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ at Bethel and through other Bethel Ministries. Above all we give God all the Honor and Praise for the Great and Mighty things that He has Blessed Bethel with over the years and the years to come!

"PRAISE GOD!"
