Historic Baptist Church has been directed in the truth of God's word for the past ten years by our Pastor, Nash S. Desent.

Pastor and his wife and children came to our church from Shreveport, Louisiana, where Pastor attended Louisiana Baptist Seminary and worked on staff at Baptist Tabernacle, under the leadership of Pastor J. G. Tharpe. Bro. Tharpe is known as "Mr. Baptist" of Louisiana. The school there under the authority of Baptist Tabernacle.

Baptist Tabernacle ordained and sent out our Pastor to start Historic Baptist Church. Over the years Historic Baptist Church and our pastor's family has grown. Pastor Desent is now a grandfather, as a result of his oldest daughter marrying our Evangelist's son. Pastor Desent has a Ph.D. in Scripture Ministries, a Th.D. in Theology, and an Honorary D.D.

We have Dr. Francisco Guerrero, serving as Vice President of the school and he is our Missionary to the Spanish Scriptures.  Through Dr. Guerrero's efforts, much of the New Testament has been translated into Spanish based on the Textus Receptus.  He also oversees the international B.I. work.

Baptist International School of the Scriptures Staff:

Our school offers Associate through Ph.D. degrees in the curricula known as School of the Scriptures. This curricula has been developed and proved for nearly 25 years. It is a biblically-based and -operated teaching system. It not only teaches the Bible, but does the teaching in a biblical order, using biblical precepts. We have a number of faithful and proven men who are part of the administrative staff. Our Vice-president of Central-America teaching is Missionary Robert Baker. He is currently serving in Honduras as an ordained Missionary/Pastor/Teacher. Bro. Baker is an excellent example of what HBC desires to multiply (Preachers, Churches, and Scriptures). He has blazed a trail for others to follow.

All our ministers and staff operate under the biblical precept that we must Do BEFORE we Teach. Our Saviour taught us that if we were to say one thing and do another, that this is hypocrisy.

Using the words of Jesus, woe to the snakes and vipers that would set themselves up as teachers, but they themselves offer no light. Blind leaders of the blind, is what Jesus called them. Our work has no place for hypocrites. A man must Do and Teach!
