Speakers

Each Maryland Independent Baptist Fellowship meeting features preaching from the Word of God by pastors among us and, on occasion, by visiting brethren invited by the host church. We believe the preaching of the Scriptures is central to every gathering of God’s people, including a gathering of pastors.

The men listed below have preached at recent MIBF meetings. We are grateful for their faithful labor in the Word and commend them to you as faithful brethren.
