A people learning to live like Jesus.

Three campuses across the Valley, one church family — gathered every Sunday around scripture, prayer, and a pretty decent cup of coffee.

Senior Pastor

Jamie Rasmussen

Jamie has been preaching at Scottsdale Bible since 2009. Before that, twelve years pastoring in Sydney, Australia, and a decade before that in Vancouver, British Columbia. He still says "G'day" most Sundays and nobody minds.

He and his wife, Catherine, have three grown kids and a habit of inviting strangers to dinner. On Sunday mornings you'll find him in the lobby ten minutes before service, coffee in hand, looking for the person who walked in alone.

story-prose Body · 11 / 18

Long-form narrative — about, founding story, year-end reflection. Two to six paragraphs of body text with optional pullquote and inline photography.

Our story

From a borrowed building to a Valley-wide family.

It started in 1962 with a small group of families, a borrowed elementary school cafeteria on Indian School Road, and the conviction that scripture is true and worth our lives. The building had no air conditioning. People showed up anyway.

By 1971 the church had outgrown the cafeteria and built its first sanctuary at the Cactus campus. By 2003, NorthRidge. By 2018, the East Valley. Three buildings, one church — gathered each Sunday around the same book that brought everyone together in the first place.

“The whole thing has always been the same: scripture, prayer, and the people next to us. The buildings are scaffolding.”

Sixty-five years in, the work hasn't changed. Bible-teaching that takes its cues from the text rather than the news cycle. Worship that aims for the heart by way of the truth. Care groups in living rooms across the Valley, doing the slow, mostly invisible work of life shared.

If you've been part of a church for decades or you're walking into one for the first time — you're welcome here. There's a seat with your name on it.

beliefs-list Body · 12 / 18

Doctrinal distinctives, values, or convictions enumerated as titled prose blocks. Four to seven items. Used on the about page or a dedicated "What we believe" landing.

What we believe

Convictions, in plain language.

A short list of the things this church will not change — said the way we'd say them on a Tuesday afternoon over coffee.

Scripture is the authority.

The Bible — sixty-six books, two testaments — is God's true word, sufficient for everything we need to know about him and how to live. We preach it verse by verse on purpose.

Jesus is the only way.

Fully God, fully man, crucified for sin and raised on the third day. Salvation comes by trusting him — not by being good enough, and never by being from the right family or zip code.

The Spirit makes us new.

Following Jesus isn't behavior modification. The Holy Spirit indwells everyone who trusts Christ and slowly, stubbornly, makes us into people who actually look like him.

The church is family.

Not a venue, not a service provider — a household. We commit to each other across age, income, and political wiring, because Jesus did that for us first.

Mission is for everyone.

Every Christian is sent — into a workplace, a school, a neighborhood, a country. The church exists for the people who haven't walked in yet.

Hope has a return date.

Jesus is coming back to make all things new. The brokenness is real. So is the deadline.

cta-band Conversion · 13 / 18

Full-width call-to-action band between sections. One conversion moment per page, max. Photography-backed with a navy gradient overlay.

See you Sunday

There's a seat with your name on it.

No dress code. No pressure. Just tell us you're coming and a host will be watching for you when you walk in.

ways-to-give Conversion · 14 / 18

Donation methods rendered as numbered options, with optional allocation breakdown. Used on the give page only.

Generosity 2026

Four ways to give.

Pick the one that fits how you actually move money. All four go to the same place — the work this church does Monday through Saturday.

Where the money goes

62%

Local ministry

Sunday gatherings, kids/students, care groups, staff.

24%

Global mission

Eight long-term partners on four continents and a refugee fund.

14%

Facilities

Three campuses kept open, lit, cooled, and ready every Sunday.

closing-block Closing · 15 / 18

Final editorial moment before the footer. A reassurance or a directive. One to two sentences plus an optional phone line.

Before you go

Still figuring out where to start?

That's normal. The fastest way is to come Sunday and find the host desk — we'll walk you through the rest. If that's a stretch, give us a call.

Call us at (480) 824-7400
footer Closing · 16 / 18

Site-wide footer. Logo, address, four nav columns, denomination tag, copyright. Always navy, always last.

wayfinding-photo Signature · 17 / 18

SBC signature. Real campus photo with an arrow-overlay graphic pointing at the entrance. Used on directions, "I'm New," and contact pages — the visual answer to "here's where to find us."

Park in the south lot and walk toward the welcome desk — under the saguaro on the right.

Cactus Campus · 7601 E Shea Blvd · Scottsdale, AZ

vertical-rule-divider Signature · 18 / 18

SBC signature. A 1px navy hairline used as a section break. Short (50px) for breathing room between hero and first section; tall (300px) for major chapter transitions on long pages.

image-right-text-left Generic block · 19 / 28

Two-column editorial row — text on the left, photo on the right. The most common mid-page narrative beat. Pair with image-left-text-right below to set up a visual rhythm down the page.

Care groups

Eight to fourteen people. A living room. Mid-week.

The Sunday gathering is the front door. Care groups are the kitchen table — smaller, slower, and where the actual work of life shared happens. Most groups meet weekly in a host home, share a meal, and walk through scripture together.

You don't have to be a regular yet. You don't have to know anybody. Tell us what part of the Valley you're in and we'll point you to a group that's already got a chair open.

Tuesday-night group · Cactus Campus

image-left-text-right Generic block · 20 / 28

Flipped variant of the above. Identical fields, mirrored layout. Used in alternation to keep long pages from getting visually monotonous.

Your first Sunday

We saved you a parking spot. Literally.

If it's your first time, pull into the south lot at Cactus Campus. The cones marked "First-Time Visitor" are not a joke — they're closer to the door, and a host will be watching for you when you walk in.

You'll get a coffee in the lobby, a five-minute tour of the kids' wing if you've got kids, and a seat saved in the back row if that's where you'd rather be. No clipboard, no name tag, no awkward stand-up-and-wave moment.

Plan your first visit

Cactus Campus · south entrance

faq-section Generic block · 21 / 28

Frequently asked questions, expanded list style (always-open). Used on give pages, "I'm new" landings, and event signup pages where visitors need their first questions answered without an extra click.

Before you come

Questions we get every week.

The honest, mostly-not-clever answers to the things visitors ask the host desk before service.

What should I expect on a Sunday?

A 70-minute service — a few songs, an announcement or two, a Bible-driven message that's usually 35 to 40 minutes, and a closing song. Casual dress is the norm. Coffee in the lobby before and after.

Where do I park?

First-time-visitor spots are marked with cones in the south lot at Cactus, the east lot at NorthRidge, and the front row at East Valley. Pull into one — we set them aside on purpose.

What's available for my kids?

SBC Kids runs every service for birth through 5th grade. Background-checked volunteers, secure check-in, and a five-minute tour any time you want one. Students (6th–12th) sit with you Sunday and have their own midweek gathering.

Do I have to give if I visit?

No. Giving is for the people who call this place home — not for guests. If you ever want to support the work of the church, there are four ways to give and we're glad to walk you through them.

Is there a service in Spanish?

Yes — a Spanish-language service runs Sundays at 11am at the Cactus Campus, with full kids' programming. Headset translation is also available at the 9am English service.

Can I just watch online first?

Absolutely. The 9am Cactus service streams live, and the full archive of past services is on the watch page. A lot of people watch for a few weeks before they walk in — that's a normal way to start.

three-card Generic block · 22 / 28

Three equal cards in a row — the canonical "value props" section. Always exactly three items. Used as a homepage secondary section or as the top of any landing page.

Three things we're after

Welcome. Worship. The way of Jesus.

The whole thing, in three words — the posture we bring to every Sunday and every Tuesday night.

01 · Welcome

You're already in.

No dress code. No background check. No questions you have to answer to qualify. The door is genuinely open — including for the part of you that isn't sure what to do with God yet.

Plan your visit
02 · Worship

Truth on the way to the heart.

Singing, scripture, and silence — aimed at the heart by way of the truth. The music is honest, the preaching is from the text, and we leave room for the Spirit to do what music and words can't.

This Sunday's service
03 · The way of Jesus

A whole life, slowly reshaped.

Following Jesus is a long obedience in the same direction. Care groups, recovery, mission, marriage cohorts — the unglamorous infrastructure of being changed over time, with people next to you.

accordion-v1 Generic block · 23 / 28

List-style accordion. Full-width rows separated by hairline dividers. Used for long-form FAQs, policy lists, and anywhere each item is text-heavy. Single-open by default. Click a row to expand.

More questions

Long-form answers, one at a time.

For the things that take more than two sentences. Click any row to read the full answer.

Membership at SBC starts with a Saturday morning class called Belong — about three hours, breakfast included, that walks you through what we believe, how the church is governed, and what membership actually commits you to. Bring questions. After the class you'll have a short conversation with a pastor and, if you'd like to move forward, your name goes on the membership roll the next quarterly meeting.
We practice believer's baptism by immersion — that is, we baptize people who have personally professed faith in Jesus and are old enough to do so on their own. For families with younger kids, we hold a child-dedication service twice a year, in which parents commit to raising their child in the faith and the church commits to walking with them. Both happen on Sunday mornings.
The senior pastor and the elder board are men, in line with our reading of the New Testament's pattern for those particular roles. Outside of those, women teach, lead, and shepherd at every level of the church — running ministries, preaching at midweek and women's gatherings, leading care groups, sitting on staff. The full statement is on our governance page; we're glad to talk it through.
Annual budget is approved by the elder board and reviewed quarterly with the membership. An independent CPA firm conducts a full audit each year, and the audited financials are made available to any member who asks. The senior pastor's compensation is set by an outside compensation committee, not by him. The full give-page breakdown shows where last year's money went, line by line.
Yes — for most volunteer roles. Greeting, parking team, hospitality, set-up/tear-down, café, and most outreach partnerships are open to anyone who's been around for a few weeks and has gone through a brief orientation. Roles involving kids, students, or pastoral care require both a background check and confirmed membership. The volunteer page lists every team and what's required for each.
accordion-v2 Generic block · 24 / 28

Card-style accordion. Each item is its own bordered card with a hover lift. Visually heavier than v1 — used when each item carries more weight, e.g. doctrinal positions or major program descriptions.

What we believe, expanded

Four convictions, room to read.

The shorter beliefs list lives on the about page. This is the longer-form version — click any card to dig in.

We believe the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments are God-breathed, fully trustworthy, and sufficient for everything we need to know about God and how to live. We preach it verse by verse on purpose — not because we're nostalgic, but because we trust the text more than we trust the news cycle. The Bible doesn't need our defense; it needs our attention.
We confess the historic Christian faith on this one, in the language of the Nicene and Apostles' Creeds. Jesus of Nazareth was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, lived a sinless life, was crucified under Pontius Pilate, and rose bodily on the third day. He is fully God and fully human — the only one who could possibly bridge the distance between us and the Father.
None of us earn our way in. We're saved — reconciled to God, forgiven, made new — by trusting Jesus' life, death, and resurrection on our behalf. Not by being good enough. Not by being from the right family or zip code. Not by performing well at church. The whole thing is a gift, which is why generosity is the only sane response to the Christian life.
The church is a household — brothers and sisters across generations, incomes, and political wiring — not a service provider you consume on Sunday and forget by Tuesday. We commit to each other on purpose: in care groups, at funerals and weddings, in meal trains, in the slow work of forgiveness. Membership is the public version of that commitment, and it's where the real life of the church happens.
tab-section-v1 Generic block · 25 / 28

Horizontal tabs across the top, panel below. Used for "by audience" content (parents/students/donors), comparison sections, or alternating program info where each tab is a parallel structure.

Find your people

There's a place for the season you're in.

Pick the audience that fits. Each tab points to a real ministry, a real schedule, and a real person who runs it.

Adults · 18 and up

Care groups, men's & women's gatherings, midweek studies.

The center of adult life at SBC is the care group — eight to fourteen people in a living room, mid-week, walking through scripture together. Layer on top: monthly men's breakfasts, the women's CREATE conference each fall, and three or four expository studies running every quarter.

Run by David Kim · Pastor of Care & Counseling
Students · 6th–12th grade

SendYTH meets Wednesday nights, 6:30–8:30pm.

Pizza, games, worship, and real teaching from the Bible — aimed at kids who are growing up in a phone-shaped world and need something more substantial than another youth-group cliche. Annual summer camp at Hume Lake, fall retreat at Pinetop, and weekend service projects across the East Valley.

Run by Rachel Ortiz · Pastor of Family Ministries
Kids · birth through 5th grade

Background-checked volunteers, secure check-in, every service.

SBC Kids runs every Sunday at every campus and every service. Nursery for infants, large-group/small-group for elementary, and a hands-on Bible curriculum that matches what your kid's parents are hearing in the main service. Vacation Bible School each June; family camp each October.

Run by Rachel Ortiz · Pastor of Family Ministries
Married couples

Date nights, retreats, and a quarterly intensive.

Quarterly date-night events at the Cactus Campus, a marriage retreat each February, and a six-week intensive (Re|Engage) for couples in the harder seasons. Run by trained lay couples and overseen by the care & counseling team. Childcare provided at every event.

Run by David & Lin Kim · Care & Counseling
tab-section-v2 Generic block · 26 / 28

Vertical tabs on the left, content panel on the right. Used for long-form content where each tab is an extended section — ministry-area deep dives, doctrinal positions, multi-track programs.

Four streams of work

How the church spends its weekdays.

The four ministry areas the elder board invests in. Each runs a different rhythm; together they make up most of what happens here Monday through Saturday.

Worship

Sunday gatherings across three campuses.

Six Sunday services, two languages, and a worship team of about ninety volunteers across the three campuses. The musical voice is intentionally mixed — modern hymns, classic hymns, and recent congregational worship — tied together by clear singable melodies and lyrics that line up with what we say we believe.

Marcus Chen oversees worship. The team rehearses Wednesday nights at Cactus, and we audition new musicians by invitation each January.

  • Cactus · 9 & 11am (English) + 11am (Spanish)
  • NorthRidge · 9 & 11am
  • East Valley · 10am
  • Online · 9am Cactus, live + archive
Discipleship

Care groups, classes, and the slow work of formation.

The discipleship engine is care groups — about 110 of them across the Valley, meeting weekly in living rooms. On top of that, three quarterly tracks: a foundations class for new believers, a six-week intensive for couples, and an expository deep-dive that rotates through one book of the Bible per quarter.

The goal is unfussy: people who actually look more like Jesus a year from now than they do today, with people next to them along the way.

  • Care groups · weekly, host homes
  • Foundations · new-believer track
  • Re|Engage · marriage intensive
  • Quarterly study · expository, all campuses
Care

Counseling, recovery, and the everyday work of presence.

Care at SBC runs three tracks: lay-pastoral care through the care-group network, professional counseling through licensed counselors on the staff team, and a Tuesday-night Christ-centered recovery community that's been running since 2011.

Hospital visits, funerals, food trains, and the quiet phone calls that nobody hears about — the unglamorous bulk of pastoral work happens here, mostly between Tuesday and Friday.

  • Care Groups network
  • Licensed counseling team
  • Recovery · Tuesdays, 7pm
  • Crisis line · 24/7 staffed
Mission

Local partnerships, global partners, and the work outside the building.

Local: every-other-Saturday partnerships with East Valley nonprofits — refugee resettlement with the IRC, foster-care wraparound with Christian Family Care, food-pantry runs at three sites. Global: eight long-term partners on four continents, supported through the missions budget plus short-term teams each summer.

Mission isn't a department here so much as a posture — the assumption that every member is sent into a workplace, a school, a neighborhood, or a country, and the church exists for the people who haven't walked in yet.

  • Local Outreach Saturdays
  • Refugee & foster wraparound
  • Eight global partners
  • Summer short-term teams

In their words

From the people who actually live here.

I walked into the lobby in January 2018 not really knowing anybody. By March I was in a care group. By that fall I was leading one. SBC isn't a building — it's the people who held the door open.

Hannah Martinez

Member since 2018 · Care Group host

My wife and I came for one Sunday and stayed because the preaching wasn't fluffy. Six years later our kids are growing up here, my mom is buried out of here, and I serve on the parking team because somebody did that for me.

Tom Whitaker

Member since 2020 · Parking team

The recovery community on Tuesday nights changed my life. No clever programming, no slogans — just other people in the same boat, the gospel said plainly, and a coffee pot that's always on.

Daniel Reyes

Member since 2014 · Recovery leader

Our family moved to Phoenix from Sydney for work and didn't expect to find a home this fast. But Jamie's an Australian, the Bible-teaching is serious, and our kids ran into the kids' wing on week one. Five years on, we belong.
