Thursdays at 5PM - Desiring God (John Piper) Study Group

Saturdays at 8AM our Men’s group meets.

We are a non-denominational Baptist (Christian) church. We preach the Gospel. We partner with many reliable and proven churches for various ministries, but we are 100% independent.

Pastor Adam practices expository, verse-by-verse preaching. When you leave a sermon you know what God’s word means and how you can apply it to our lives and live it out. Every sermon is about Jesus and the Gospel. God’s word asks 3 fundamental questions:

1 - What does the passage say about people?

2 - What does the passage say about God?

3 - What does the passage say about the Gospel?

You can watch sermons on our YouTube page.

Or go to our Sermons Page to subscribe on a number of media platforms listed.

Always! We love to use modern technology and creativity with our online resources. But when we practice the physical gathering of the church, preaching, and real pastoral ministry, you can find our people, preacher, and church family gathering here together and in person every Sunday and all our gatherings.

All Elders shall satisfy the qualifications for the office of Elder as stated in the CSBC Constitution. The number of non -staff serving Elders shall be at least one more than the total of the staff serving Elders.

The actual number of actively serving Elders shall be based upon the current need of the congregation and the availability of gifted men.

We are elder protected and staff/deacon directed. This means that our staff (Administrator) leads our day-to-day operations. The administrator supports the deacons to execute the ministry vision and church vision (set by the elders), and build teams of faithful members to serve and strengthen the body.

Elders practice plurality in their leadership including spiritual oversight, financial decisions, vision & mission assessment, church discipline, leadership development, accountability, member care, and strategic planning.

We do not here at CSBC. We hold to the traditional Biblical position that teaches the role of pastor and elder is for men. This in no way belittles God’s high calling for women. Women are able to serve in Deacon roles and serve in many areas.

Pastor Adam or any of our elders are glad to answer any questions concerning roles within CSBC.

We worship with a variety of traditional hymns, modern hymns, contemporary songs, and songs some on our worship team have written.

Our worship team leads our singing and praise and we have the words projected on our big screen up forward.

No matter what style of music or songs, all, of them reflect on the Gospel and a deep understanding of scripture.

CSBC employs a third-party bookkeeper. Our finance team is led by a deacon in conjunction with a finance team including members -at-large. Our collections/counters are always overseen by two qualified and vetted individuals. We also practice member reporting to provide the church with a full overview of budgets, spending, projections, and financial processes.

Membership at CSBC is about knowing and being known, loving and being loved. We don’t believe that church goers are just a number. A member is someone who has fully committed to being a part of CSBC, and someone who our pastor and elders are actually accountable for (Hebrews 13:17).

CSBC Covenant

Having been led by the Spirit of God to profess our faith in Jesus Christ and having been baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, we do now solemnly and joyfully affirm our covenant with God and with each other.

We pledge to serve Christ in the fellowship of this congregation. We shall endeavor to love one another, to remember one another in prayer. We aspire to be a fellowship of the concerned, where the lost may find Jesus Christ, sinners may find pardon, seekers may find meaning for their lives, and where all who come may find welcome. We shall strive to be responsible Church members through faithful attendance, study and giving. We shall strive for the unity of this Church praying for, helping, serving, forgiving, speaking only that which builds up or imparts grace.

We shall seek to be obedient to Christ in our daily living. Within our homes, in our labor, and while at leisure, we shall strive for attitudes and actions which reflect God's Spirit working through us. We pledge to maintain family and individual devotions, to educate our children in the Christian faith and to seek the salvation of our family and acquaintances. Believing that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, we shall endeavor to avoid experiences and habits which defile the body and hinder our witness. Bound together in a fellowship of faith with all who confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we shall pray and labor for a spirit of unity among all Christians.

Believing that our call to be a Church is a call to witness in the world, we dedicate ourselves anew as servants of the Lord of all life. Whenever men are in bondage to ignorance, poverty, fear or prejudice, we shall strive for justice, freedom, dignity and peace. Whenever men are separated by barriers of hostility and distrust, we shall be ministers of God's reconciling love. As we pledge our support to the work of our missionaries throughout the world, we commit ourselves to the mission to which God calls us all.

Acknowledging our human frailties and our need for forgiveness, we profess our need to be controlled by the Holy Spirit and commit our lives to Jesus Christ.
