Resolved
“Resolved, to improve every opportunity, when I am in the best and happiest frame of mind, to cast and venture my soul on the Lord Jesus Christ, to trust and confide in him, and consecrate myself wholly to him; that from this I may have assurance of my safety, knowing that I confide in my Redeemer.” (Edwards, 1723) The old hymn says, “Trust in the Lord, for there is no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.” (Trust and Obey, Don Moen) In a world pursuing happiness at every turn, we have a way to enjoy genuine pleasure. It is not by pursuing something less than happiness offers, but by pursuing a source of pleasure that is greater than all other things. When we are assured of our safety, then joy can come unhindered. If you ride a rollercoaster, strapped in tight, you can enjoy the twists, turns and speed. But if you were to have the same twist and turns during an airplane flight from here to New York, you would experience sheer terror, not joy.

For the Glory of God

We understand. Visiting a church can be pretty intimidating. we want you to get a feel for what your first Sunday with us will be like.

At CHBC, you'll meet a group of people who, by God's Grace, love God's Word, each other, and their community.

We're committed to equipping the church to Make disciples And fulfill the great commission.

Keep up with everything that's going on at CHBC. Sign up for a Bible study and register for upcoming events.

There are plenty of unhelpful resources out there. We want to point you to the best.
