About the Organization:

Dublin Baptist Church is a little more than 40 years old. It has been a very traditional church that grew because of outreach, evangelism, and missions. The majority of DBC’s history and growth occurred under the leadership of Pastor Darrel Gabbard, who served the church for 24 years (1989-2013). Pastor JD Davis came in 2014 and is known for his strong Biblical preaching and teaching, application of Biblical principles to life, his missions focus, and approachability. He has a vision to invest in growing healthy disciples, families, and church. The church is multi-generational and international. There are four language groups that are a part of our church as well (Japanese, Chinese, Indian, and Hispanic).
