I am Robert E. Baxter,
known in the Churches I have served
as "Pastor Bob."
Seeing my picture, you may appreciate this true story. My youngest granddaughter was at a ballgame with our family and was sitting in the bleachers behind me. She looked down at the top of my head and asked, "Grandpa, when it rains, do the rain drops hurt your head?" Grandma thought that was funny! So did I! I replied, "No, the rain drops don't hurt, but when it rains, I am the first to know it!" You can tell why from the picture.

I do not pretend to be anything more than a sinner saved by grace. I cannot measure up to God's demands for perfect righteousness. I have no hope of pleasing God by any holiness of my own, but my only hope is in the mercy of God through the perfect work and life of my Savior Jesus Christ. You will see this explained if you read my testimony in rap form in a sample sermon on the page called "MY BIOGRAPHY." I delivered that sermon, entitled, "MY TESTIMONY" on April 29, 2001. I am guilty of all of the seven classic sins that afflict all people: Sloth, Lust, Anger, Pride, Envy, Gluttony, and Greed. That's not all. The breaking of any of God's commandments constitutes sin in my life. Apart from the Lord Jesus Christ, I have no hope whatsoever. This web site is to rejoice in the Savior. It is not to promote myself. I cannot help you; I cannot help myself. But the Savior can!

I have been preaching at various times in this Church in Dothan since the beginning of 2001, but as of June 1, 2007, I have been appointed Head of Staff and preach most Sundays.

I am also responsible for hospital visitation and other pastoral services. I am delighted to be serving the Lord in such a loving and joyful congregation where the emphasis is on God's grace. Our Church Mission Statement is that First Presbyterian Church is a grace place. You can see pictures of our campus on the Dothan page of this website.
