CHESTNUT MOUNTAIN PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

What CHESTNUT MOUNTAIN PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH does

Chestnut Mountain Presbyterian Church (CMPC) is a single-campus congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) denomination located at 4675 Winder Hwy, Flowery Branch, Georgia, serving the Chestnut Mountain and surrounding Hall County community. The church operates as a nonprofit religious organization governed by its Session (elders) and led by three full-time pastors — Steven Clark, Travis Brown, and Ben Phillips (Pastor of Ministries). Worship services are held Sundays at 8:30am, 11:00am, and 6:30pm, and Wednesdays at 6:30pm, with Sunday School, Wednesday Night Alive (a family meal and Bible study program), and a full portfolio of age-segmented ministries covering children, students, women, men, seniors (Mountain Climbers, 55+), and missions.

The underlying technology stack is modest and consumer-grade: the website is built on the SnapPages platform, the CMPC mobile app and online giving are powered by Subsplash, and content is distributed via a weekly podcast ("So, What About Us?") and the sermon/media library. The church's revenue model is entirely donation-based, comprising recurring tithes and offerings for general operations and a separate Faith Promise missions giving program that funds cross-cultural missionary partnerships (e.g., the Tunnells in Gdansk, Poland). Minor paid touchpoints include Wednesday Night Alive meals ($5/person, $15/family) and Mountain Climbers dinners ($9/person). Geographic footprint is a single domestic campus with a global missions extension through partner-supported missionaries.

The business model is direct-to-congregation: in-person services and small groups are the primary delivery channel, supplemented by digital content (website, app, podcast) for asynchronous engagement. Marketing is largely organic, relying on the website, social media, email/text signup, and word-of-mouth within the community. The church's strategic emphasis is articulated as "Exalt. Equip. Engage." — a three-pillar framing of worship, discipleship, and global missions — with a 2026 Global Mission Conference (February 25 – March 1) signaling an intensification of cross-cultural ministry.
