"God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world." Hebrews 1:1-2 (NASB)

Christian Internet Resources

The Internet offers a vaste array of useful Christian information. From time to time, the Alta Vista Baptist Church exchanges links with other Christian sites.

While it is impossible to list all quality Christian links on the Internet we will, over time, build a list of Christian site links of interest.

Many of the following web sites were extracted from a list compiled from an informal survey of Baptist Pastors conducted by the Fellowship of Evangelical Baptist Churches and published in The Evangelical Baptist magazine. We combined that with some of our own favourites. We are happy to consider additions. Please email suggestions and comments to the webmaster.

Additional links relating to Bible Study may be found on our Bible Study page.
