Serving In Our Community

JESUS IS STILL AT WORK TODAY

“Where is Jesus Christ at work in our world? How does he touch the problems of society today, at the beginning of the twenty first century? The answer is that He is at work exactly as He was at work in His lifetime on earth, carrying out precisely the same strategy! Two-thousand years ago, He did His work through one solitary, earthly, physical body. Today, He carries on the same work through a complex, many-faceted, corporate body which exists around the world, permeating and penetrating every level of society. It is called “the church,” the body of Christ – but its ministry is to the same human race that Jesus ministered to, experiencing the same issues and conditions, facing the very same attitudes and problems.” –Ray Stedman

Our desire is certainly to be an “outward” facing church. We want Camden to be a better community because we’re here, to be missed if our presence were gone, and to have more exposure to the gospel when we’re around. As a result, we’re committed to serving the last, the lost, and least of our community on a daily basis. You can see the local organizations we partner with both financially and personally below.

Serving In Our World

“Make disciples of all nations” is a command we try to take seriously. CSBC is committed to giving a large portion of our annual income to missions that reach globally. We support bringing the Gospel to unreached people and groups, building hospitals in remote areas, support for medical teams, providing water and clean wells, developing schools in third-world countries, and sending teams to refresh and serve these ministries across the globe.

Suppose a brother, or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?

The Message Translation: Dear friends, do you think you’ll get anywhere in this if you learn all the right words but never do anything? Does merely talking about faith indicate that a person really has it? For instance, you come upon an old friend dressed in rags and half-starved and say, “Good morning, friend! Be clothed in Christ! Be filled with the Holy Spirit!” and walk off without providing so much as a coat or a cup of soup—where does that get you? Isn’t it obvious that God-talk without God-acts is outrageous nonsense?
