Assessment
First Baptist Church Santa Fe is an SBC church led by Reed Redus. Address in batch was incorrect — actual location is 1605 Old Pecos Trail. Single service at 10:30 AM suggests a smaller congregation. SBC affiliation provides accountability. Reviews describe the church as welcoming with a good pastor. Operating in artistically progressive Santa Fe, maintaining an SBC presence is notable. Need to verify theological depth and men's ministry locally.
