You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. 14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. Matthew 5:13-15 (NIV)

Pollok was a booming sawmill community around the turn of the 20th century. Settlers were in the area before 1837 but in 1886 the new railroad ran through Pollok and the community began to grow. As it thrived, a post office was later built, followed by a church named Warren Chapel Baptist Church. In 1896 this church became known as the Pollok Baptist Church.
