WELCOME HOME! We Are Eleven Generations In Christ On Mission Together
WELCOME HOME TO CHESTNUT STREET BAPTIST CHURCH | Established 1808.
WHAT’S SO SPECIAL ABOUT CSBC?
Nothing! Absolutely nothing! If you are looking for a perfect church then you are going to be very disappointed with us. At CSBC you’ll find real people, with real problems, who live real lives, and are all learning to love a real God whose grace is more than enough for all our needs.
You see, at CSBC we don’t need to cling to our own “special-ness” or “goodness” because of the cross of Jesus Christ. At His cross we find that none are really “good” at all. In fact, at Jesus’ cross we discover that we are unquestionably guilty and yet can be unconditionally forgiven.
At the cross we learn that Christ does NOT want to condemn us in our sins but to save us from them. At the cross we find that God receives us just where we are but He loves us enough not to leave us there. God can and will change lives. He is changing us and can change you as well.
We celebrate Him - not us! Here at CSBC there are only people. People like me. People like you. People like us. People who desperately need God’s grace. Everyone is welcome to come and receive that grace. We invite you to join us on this life-changing journey.

Saturday Men's Group
8:00 AM - 10:00 AM
We meet to share our lives together as Christian brothers and be "mutually encouraged by each other's faith" (Romans 1:12). As we listen to each other and share our struggles and joys, we aim for honesty, humility, accountability and a focus on how Christ is working in our lives.

SEE WHAT’S HAPPENING
We believe the Great Commission is meant to be carried out by the local church as we live our lives in community with one another. All Christian fellowship should be founded on a common desire to stir one another up to love and good works, entering into a partnership in the gospel.
NEXT STEPS
EVERY BODY HAS A NEXT STEP!
Whether you are ready to make a decision for Jesus or want to find out how to get connected, let us help!
KEEP IT SIMPLE
We believe simple is better, so we do four fundamental practices here at CSBC.
WORSHIP GATHERINGS
Sundays we gather together to encounter God - through His word and through His presence. Worship is where we meet with God, teach His Word, and minister to each other.
SMALL GROUPS
Small groups are three or more people who meet together regularly to pray and discuss scripture together, specifically: 1. What does it say about God. 2. What does it say about people? 3. How does it point us to the Gospel?
SERVING TEAMS
Serving teams serve together under one of five deacon spheres (Finance, Facilities, Community, Worship Gatherings, and Outreach). Here is where you can use your gifts to make a difference in the lives of others, both in our church and our community.
TRANSFORMATION
God’s presence (Spirit) is what transforms us. So we intentionally structure each of our gatherings to be centered around Jesus and The Gospel [The Good News], so we grow to become more like Him .
