Who We Are

Our History

Oak Ridge Baptist Church started with a small group Bible study in 1979. Pastor Marty Marriott came to Oak Ridge from Tennessee Temple University. He felt led to begin a Bible-based work here in Oak Ridge. After the Bible study grew, Oak Ridge Baptist Church chartered in September of 1980. In 2005 the church will celebrate it’s 25th anniversary. Pastor Marriott’s burden was to see a church that relied solely on the Word of God for its’ faith and practices.

Three years after beginning with a Bible study, the church moved to the present location on LaSalle Road. With the recent purchase of 12.21 acres on Bethel Valley Road, the church has a vision to be more accessible and more visible in order to reach this community for Christ. This beautiful piece of property is but a tool to remind us that we are truly committed to declare Christ in our community and develop believers in the church.

In the Fall of 2001, ORBC called Pastor Tom Craig to be the senior pastor. This is yet another step the church has taken to continue the vision of a Bible-based ministry in this area.

While we are presenting salvation through Christ to our community, we are also praying for Christians who will join with us in our ministry here in the greater Oak Ridge and Knoxville areas. Perhaps your next step is to go to work with us for the cause of the gospel in your community!
