Who we are
Mount Zion Bible Church is a Christ-centered local church established in 1979, now with about 100 attending, seeking to honor the Lord Jesus Christ in all things. We believe that the inspired Word of God is the only sufficient, certain, and infallible rule of all saving knowledge, faith, and obedience. Our worship services include prayer, the reading of the Scriptures, singing of hymns, Christ-centered preaching, and humble submission to the Word of God. While we are not affiliated with any denomination, our doctrinal statement is expressed in the London Baptist Confession of 1689; we therefore practice the baptism of believers. We are age-integrated, enjoying the fruits of whole families participating together in our worship services and the life of the church. We especially encourage expositional preaching, conservative hymns, evangelism, modesty, and Biblical manhood and womanhood.

While we are not affiliated with any denomination, our doctrinal statement is expressed in the London Baptist Confession of 1689. The London Baptist Confession of 1689 reflects the Reformed theological tradition of the great Westminster Confession of Faith adopted in 1646, but upholds believer’s baptism and congregational church government. It has been used by Baptist congregations worldwide for over 300 years.

Chapel Library is a ministry of Mount Zion Bible Church, a Christ-centered church in Pensacola, Florida. The elders at MZBC oversee the ministries of Chapel Library, Mount Zion Bible Institute, the Free Grace Broadcaster, and Mount Zion Prison Ministry. In 2000, Steven Frakes became a second elder, joining Pastor Shelton. In 2002, Jeff Pollard became the third elder. Steven Frakes and Jeff Pollard served together after Pastor Shelton’s passing in 2003. After Steven Frakes retired in 2014, Clarence Simmons became an elder in 2016, serving together with Pastor Jeff since then.
The first editor of the Free Grace Broadcaster adopted the following motto, inspired by 19th century hymnwriter Samuel Medley. It remains our mission statement today:
Our purpose is to humble the pride of man, to exalt the grace of God in salvation, and to promote real holiness in heart and life, by sending Christ-centered materials from prior centuries worldwide without charge.
We believe that Holy Scripture is the only sufficient, certain, and infallible rule of all saving knowledge, faith, and obedience. Our doctrinal statement is expressed in the Second London Baptist Confession of 1689, one of the historic statements of Reformation faith.
We operate by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, distributing worldwide without charge as the Lord provides. We do not ask for donations, send promotional mailings, or share our mailing list. However we gratefully receive donations from those who desire to give.

Mt Zion Bible Church History
In December of 1978, Lee Roy Shelton Jr. founded Mount Zion Bible Church in Pensacola, Florida. The printing ministry began with a mimeograph machine in the basement of a home until moving into our first building in June of 1979. The Lord gave the first offset press in June of 1986. Another press was added in February of 1988. All this time, God was moving to open doors for a wider ministry. In February of 1987 we inherited Chapel Library from the Nelson family in Venice, Florida. Then in June of 1988 we began publishing the Free Grace Broadcaster from W.F. Bell in Canton Georgia.
The mailing list kept growing until we were no longer able to put everything together by hand. God provided a computer system for handling the mailing labels, and a paper cutter, tract folder, and a 13-station booklet-maker with stitcher, folder, and trimmer.
Now we could no longer use our first 40 x 42 ft. building for both worship and work. A second building was added in 1986 at 40 x 60 ft., which now houses offices and our church meeting.
In 1991 the literature distribution more than tripled, outgrowing our storage space. We added many more titles and printed larger quantities. Answered prayer brought a third building in 1992, which more than tripled the work and inventory space at 60 x 125 ft.
Into the new building, along with all our other equipment, went a large sheet press, a perfector press, a large folder, a 12-station perfect binder to collate, glue, and trim books up to 252 pages, and all the necessary graphics and layout equipment to prepare our publications for the press.
The Prison Ministry began in 1984 with mailings to one prison in Huntsville, Texas. It has since spread by word of mouth to more than 3,500 facilities in Canada and all 50 states in the USA. We send free tracts, booklets, books, and correspondence courses to chaplains for their distribution, and directly to individual inmates.
1995 saw the addition of the correspondence school, Mt. Zion Bible Institute, which now has more than 50 courses and distributes thousands of courses each year.
The audio tape ministry doubled in size in 1995, and was distributing more than 2,000 tapes per month before the advent of MP3. It has more than 8,000 sermon masters. As the world transitions to digital audio, the cassettes remain available in North America.
1996 saw the beginning of internet ministry, www.MountZion.org and JohnBunyan.org, which features the complete works of John Bunyan (1628-1688).
2004 saw the beginning of the international distributors, when Conrad Mbewe in Zambia began sending the Free Grace Broadcaster to pastors in his own country. Today pastors and missionaries in dozens of countries serve as distributors, maintaining the subscription list for their own country and posting thousands of copies of the FGB each quarter.

Lord, teach me to listen.
The times are noisy and my ears are weary with the thousand raucous sounds which continuously assault them. Give me the spirit of the boy Samuel when he said to Thee, "Speak, for Thy servant heareth." Let me hear Thee speaking in my heart. Let me get used to the sound of Thy voice, that its tones may be familiar when the sounds of earth die away and the only sound will be the music of Thy speaking. Amen.
