The Chipman Road Church of Christ is a congregation of people who desire simply to be Christians. We believe and practice the teachings of the New Testament  to the very best of our ability. Our worship  is simple, friendly and open to all interested visitors. We plan our worship to be reasonable, dignified, ordered and controlled by our knowledge of the Word of God. Our emphasis is on His Word. We are overseen by an eldership composed of two men - Bill Goring and Ron Johnson. 

We try to be an uncomplicated people. Our worship is patterned after the church revealed in the New Testament. Their worship together consisted of singing together, praying together, preaching and studying God's Word  together. This we do each time we assemble to worship Our Heavenly Father. As they did, so we, on each first day of the week (Sunday), partake of the Lord's Supper together. Everyone is invited to participate in each of these spiritual exercises to the best of his ability.

We are a completely autonomous church. We are not controlled, guided, nor governed, either directly or indirectly, by any other group, office or religious body. We do encourage everyone and try to cooperate with any group that faithfully teaches the same Biblical truths and follows restoration principles today.

We own our own building. We believe a church should pay its own way. Our financial responsibilities are met by the simple New Testament method of free-will contributions each Sunday from our members. No financial assessment or record is kept on individual members. We do teach our members to be responsible to the Lord and His church. We do not solicit nor expect our visitors to contribute.

We believe that the Bible is inspired of God — the Divine Book suitable to man's every spiritual need. We study It from this premise. We also teach that man must continue to live soberly, righteously, and godly  in this present world. We try to do this to the best of our ability. We should be good neighbors. We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you here at the Chipman Road Church of Christ!
