A Church for Carrollton

Pleasant View Baptist Church is a historic Southern Baptist Church in Carrollton, Georgia. We are committed to helping people know Jesus, grow through His Word, and live faithfully together as His people. We believe the Christian life is not meant to be lived alone. Church is more than a Sunday gathering. It is a family of believers who worship Jesus together, care for one another, serve their neighbors, and take the good news of the gospel into their community. We want to be a church where people can grow in their understanding of the Bible and learn how to live out their faith every day. We believe Jesus changes lives, and we want everything we do to point people toward Him. That means teaching the Bible clearly, praying for one another, caring for people in times of need, serving our community, and helping believers become faithful followers of Jesus. Like many Southern Baptist churches, we also believe in the importance of sharing the gospel beyond our own community and supporting the work of churches and missionaries around the world. Our roots in Carrollton run deep, but our focus is not simply on preserving the past. We want to faithfully serve the people God has placed around us today. Whether you have followed Jesus for many years, are returning to church, or are simply curious about Christianity, we would love for you to join us. You will find a church family made up of ordinary people who are seeking to follow Jesus together. Our hope is that when people come to Pleasant View, they will hear the gospel, experience genuine Christian community, and take another step toward Jesus.

A Church for Worship

We gather each Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m. for worship, biblical preaching, prayer, and fellowship. Our worship service usually lasts about an hour and is centered on the Word of God and the good news of Jesus Christ. We believe that the Bible is God’s Word and that it has something important to say to every person, no matter their age or background. Each week, we gather as a church family to hear the Bible taught, sing together, pray together, and encourage one another. We do not expect people to have everything figured out before they come through our doors. You do not need to know the Bible, understand everything about Christianity, or have your life put together. Come as you are. You will find ordinary people who are learning to follow Jesus together. Some have followed Christ for many years. Others are still asking questions and learning what it means to believe in Him. We believe the church should be a place where people can hear the truth of the gospel, build meaningful relationships, and take their next step in following Jesus. Our Sunday gathering is only one part of our life together, but it is an important part. We believe that God calls His people to gather, worship, learn, pray, and encourage one another. If you are looking for a church in Carrollton, Georgia, we would love for you to visit Pleasant View. Whether you are new to church, returning after many years away, or looking for a church family, you are welcome here. Come worship with us and meet our church family.

One of the Oldest Churches in Carrollton, Georgia

Pleasant View Baptist Church has been part of the Carrollton community since 1876. For nearly 150 years, generations of people have gathered at Pleasant View to worship Jesus, hear the Bible preached, pray together, care for one another, and share the gospel. Families have celebrated weddings and births, walked through seasons of loss, raised children, and served their neighbors through this church. Through all those years, Carrollton has changed. The people, buildings, roads, businesses, and neighborhoods around us have changed. Yet God has continued to be faithful. Our history is a reminder that the church does not belong to one generation. We receive something from those who came before us, and we have a responsibility to pass the faith on to those who come after us. As we approach 150 years of ministry, we are thankful for the men and women who have faithfully served Jesus at Pleasant View. But we do not want to live only in the past. A church can have a long history and still have a fresh mission. Our desire is to faithfully serve Carrollton today while preparing the church for tomorrow. We want to help people know Jesus, grow in His Word, love one another, and live on mission in our community. We want to be a church that is faithful to the gospel in our own generation and that helps the next generation follow Jesus. We are thankful for where God has brought Pleasant View, but we are also excited about where He may lead us next.
