Independent Baptist Radio 🇺🇸

Independent Baptist Radio (IBR) is an internet radio network dedicated to broadcasting sermons, gospel music, and Bible teaching aligned with the beliefs of Independent Baptist churches. These churches are defined by their autonomy, biblical literalism, fundamentalism, evangelism, and separation from worldly influences. IBR's programming centers around the core tenets of Independent Baptist faith. This includes a strong adherence to the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible, considered by many within the Independent Baptist movement as the most accurate translation. Sermons from Independent Baptist pastors are a major component, featuring expository preaching. Traditional gospel music, hymns, and Southern gospel are also heavily featured, avoiding contemporary Christian music deemed too worldly. The network serves multiple purposes, including evangelism, edification, fellowship, preservation of doctrine, and ministry support. It aims to reach a broad audience with the gospel, provide spiritual nourishment to believers, create a sense of community, uphold the theological distinctives of Independent Baptist churches, and provide a platform for pastors and ministries to expand their reach. IBR ensures accessibility through internet streaming, allowing a global audience to listen regardless of location, and often archives programs for on-demand access.
