ABOUT US

HOW WE STARTED

Dallas Baptist Church was established September 25, 1879 when nineteen Dallas community citizens came together with the expressed purpose of organizing a church on a space of land set aside in the town charter for a Baptist church.

WHAT WE BELIEVE

We are a Southern Baptist Convention church. We also work closely with the Greater Gaston Baptist Association and the State Baptist Convention of NC. We have adopted the Baptist Faith & Message 2000 as our corporate statement of faith.

MEET OUR PASTOR

My name is Cooper Short. I've been married to my wife, Sydney Kate, since July of 2021. I am originally from Kings Mountain, NC. Sydney Kate and I have been serving as pastor and wife of DBC since June of 2024. I graduated from Presbyterian College in 2020, where I played college football and received my BA in History. I graduated with my Master's of Divinity in pastoral ministry from SEBTS in December of 2024.

I am a huge fan of the local church. I am passionate about teaching and preaching the Bible and all of the things that make the local church experience meaningful. My favorite book of the Bible is probably John, and my favorite worship song is In Christ Alone. 

I am a huge Oregon Ducks fan. I take my coffee consumption very seriously. I love to hunt, fish, listen to music, cook, and do anything related to football. I love my family dearly, and we've got two orange cats-- Sunny and Rocket.
