The Church on the Bluff (previously Bluff Park Baptist Church) is a Southern Baptist church located at 2211 McGwier Drive in Hoover's Bluff Park community. It was established in 1898 as Summit Baptist Church and originally was housed in a small wooden chapel that was used both as both a church and a school. A later structure was built in 1952 and was used until the church moved to its current location, a few blocks from its original location, in 1973.

It changed to its present name in 2018 and is a member of the Birmingham Metro Baptist Association. The pastor is Tony Barber.
