Types of churches in Edgefield

Edgefield Family-Friendly Churches

Many congregations on and around Main Street and the US‑25 corridor cater to young families with nurseries, kids’ worship, and active youth nights. They often sync events with the Strom Thurmond school calendar and host community suppers, VBS, and sports-themed ministries that fit Edgefield’s small-town rhythm.

Historic Downtown Congregations

Around the Courthouse Square, long-established churches worship in historic sanctuaries with traditional liturgy, choirs, and organ music. These congregations draw multi-generation Edgefield families and newcomers who appreciate the town’s heritage and a quieter, reverent service style.

Rural Baptist & Holiness

In the countryside just beyond town limits toward Trenton, Johnston, and the Sumter National Forest, small Baptist and Pentecostal-holiness congregations gather in simple chapels. Expect gospel preaching, revival meetings, and Fifth Sunday sings, alongside strong neighbor-to-neighbor care rooted in farm and forestry communities.

Edgefield African American Churches

Edgefield’s African American congregations—especially AME and Missionary Baptist—anchor neighborhoods near downtown and along Highway 23 toward Johnston. Services feature spirited choirs and call-and-response preaching, with weeknight programs focused on mentoring, food drives, and civic engagement shaped by deep local history.

53s
“Joshua is reminding the nation whether you like it or not, you will serve someone. There will be something my dad used to say. Somebody's always your boss. There's always somebody higher. There's always somebody over you. There's always somebody that you answer to but Joshua says, you have a choice. You can serve god or you can serve your sin. You can live a life that is fully dedicated and faithfully submitted to the lord who is protected and provided and delivered and done all of these things, poured out his love on you or if you really think it's better, if it's evil in your eyes to serve the lord, then you can choose to serve these other false idols that will never fulfill. The end of that verse, Joshua says, but as for me and my house, we will serve the lord.”

“I'm saying you take the decisions that you've made and every single day, god, this is where you want me, if this is what you want me to do, I'm all in. And if you change your mind, please change mine. Make it obvious. I've shared with the teenagers before one of my favorite prayers is, father, I am so foolish. I'm wrestling with this decision. I think you want me to head this direction. If that is what you want me to do, please make it so obvious that not even I could miss it. Please make it so obvious that I can't do anything else except that one thing. Graduates, do you know who God is? Do you know what he's done? And will you serve him today? And will you serve him for the rest of the todays that he gives you? Will you be fully committed and sold out to god?”

“Verse 14 begins with it therefore, because of all these things, because of who god is, because of what god has done, fear the lord and serve him in sincerity. This is this is with your whole heart, with everything that you are to serve god, to fear god, and in faithfulness, put away the gods that your father served beyond the river and serve the lord. He is he is calling them out. He is throwing down the gauntlet. He is saying to the nation, hey, you've seen god do incredible things. You've seen him protect and provide. You've seen him deliver in supernatural ways that can only be attributed to him and now you have to make a choice. Now, you've seen god do all these things, you must decide.”

“is this is important. This is essential for us to remember. Joshua starts all the way back with Abraham. Actually, with Abraham's father And he says, Terah, the father of Abraham and of Nahor, they served other gods. But then I, this is Joshua speaking for god, god took Abraham from beyond the river and led him through all the land of Canaan and made his offs pring many. He's recounting to them. Do you know where all this started? When you look around nation of Israel and you see where you are today, do you know how all of this began? It began with Abraham.”

Just keep flying and flying and flying. You'll never get there, right? Jesus Christ has separated your sins as far as the east is from the west."”

“"If we claim to long for Jesus, if we claim to long to meet him, if we claim to belong to him, why isn't he as freely coming off our lips as my family is? I shared stories about things my kids did that made me laugh. I shared stories, sweet stories about Catherine and I from when we first met. Why am I not sharing stories about from when I first met Jesus?"”

“"Christianity is 24-7. My heart's desire is to go to church. The thing that gets me out of bed in the morning, that helps, that I'm praying about as I go to sleep that night, that I'm focusing all my efforts on as a pastor, as an engineer, as a nurse, as a stay-at-home mom, as a stay-at-home dad, whatever you do, my heart's desire is that the people I encounter might know Jesus."”

“"If you have a relationship with Jesus, you don't have to fear these forces. If you have been sealed with the Holy Spirit, Satan can't have your soul. And then we come to the American culture and we go, you think abortion is okay? Murdering children is alright? You look at our culture and say, you think gambling is okay? You think alcoholism is okay?"”

“"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the scriptures say, everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame."”
