Please be aware that Parkdale Baptist Church does not agree with the theology or practice of the Word Faith Movement, NAR and disagrees with much of the theology and practice of the Charismatic Movement. We do not practice speaking in tongues in our meetings and are very conservative and traditional in our theology and worship.

We strongly agree with the theological positions of John McArthur Jr. regarding the Word Faith and Charismatic Movement. (See his book “Strange Fire” or online video series of the same name)
