Who We Are
Our Story
Heritage Baptist Church was formed in 2005 with a clear and simple desire: to gather around God’s Word and worship God according to the pattern revealed in the New Testament.
Located in Huntsville, Alabama, Heritage is a sovereign grace believing church holding to what is commonly known as reformed theology, as expressed in the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith.
From the beginning, the aim has been faithfulness rather than innovation. Scripture is sufficient. Christ is central. The local church is God’s ordained means for strengthening believers and making Him known.
Heritage is a congregation of ordinary believers seeking to grow steadily in the knowledge of Christ, to love one another sincerely, and to reflect His character in everyday life.

Heritage is led by pastors who are committed to guiding and caring for the church community with humility, dedication and love. With Christ and His word at the center, answers for life are found in the doctrine of God’s sovereign grace, a biblical view of God and man, the glorious Gospel and the hope it brings to fallen man.

Mike Stewart, Pastor
Mike was born and raised in central Mississippi. After graduating from Mississippi State in 1986, God changed his course of direction with a deep conviction of sin and desire to follow Christ. He then met his wife, Peggy, while attending church in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 1998, he was ordained to the ministry in BelAir, Maryland, and ultimately moved to Huntsville, Alabama, to begin his first pastorate. In 2005, Heritage was formed and called him to be her founding pastor.

Titus Cannon, Pastor
Titus has lived in five Southern states but has gladly called Alabama home since 2005. He and his wife Cammy have 10 children. Baptized at the young age of eight, he has long had a love for the Lord. After a debilitating injury in 2012 he learned to lean on God in many ways. Through this experience, God called him to not just be a student of the Word but also a messenger of the Word. He was ordained to ministry in 2021.
