About Us

Thank You for Being Here!

We are a Bible-preaching church on the Cape with a simple mission: to give you hope, to show you God’s love, and to help you find purpose – all through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our desire is this: to know Jesus deeply, and to show Jesus daily.

WHY DOES JESUS MATTER?

He exceeds all expectations.

HE IS GOD, AND HE LOVES YOU

Jesus said He was God. He proved it by His life, His words, His deeds, and His love. “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)” (Ephesians 2:4–5). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).

HE DIED FOR YOU
HE DIED FOR YOU

Our sin separates us from God and requires the payment of death (Romans 3:23, 6:23). Yet, because Jesus died for you, you don’t have to pay for your own sins! “Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day…” (1 Corinthians 15:3–4). “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

HE WANTS TO GIVE YOU LIFE
HE WANTS TO GIVE YOU LIFE

Here’s how Jesus said it: “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life…” (John 3:36).  “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live” (John 11:25).

HE WANTS TO SAVE YOU

Going to Heaven isn’t about being good or religious. It’s about trusting Jesus. Call out to Him, ask Him to come into your life, save you from sin, and give you His gift of eternal life. It’s the best decision you will ever make. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). Please contact us and let us know that you’ve made this decision!

What We Believe


We believe there is one God. We believe the Bible is His word to mankind and is our authority for faith and practice. We believe He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ to die for the sins of the world. We believe the Holy Spirit brings mankind to the understanding of their eternal fate and lives inside of a believer after salvation. We believe the only way to have eternal life in Heaven is to listen to the Holy Spirit and accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. We believe the local church is made up of those who have accepted Christ. We believe it is the responsibility of all believers to actively share the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ with those who are lost. We believe that Jesus Christ will return one day to establish His kingdom here on earth.

Below are the Doctrinal Statement of Coastline Baptist Church.

We believe the Bible to be the word of God. We believe the Bible is inspired and preserved by God, and that it is perfect and true. (Psalm 12:6–7; 2 Timothy 3:15–17; 1 Peter 1:23–25; 2 Peter 1:19–21)

We believe in one holy and loving God—eternal, self-existent, infinite, and immutable—and that He has one nature, essence, and substance; yet He manifests Himself to man in the Trinity as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Timothy 1:17; James 1:17; 1 John 4:4)

We believe that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh and the only Saviour of mankind. We believe He came to earth, lived a sinless life, and offered Himself on the cross as a substitutionary sacrifice for the sins of all mankind. We believe He resurrected bodily and ascended into Heaven where He now dwells until His return. (Isaiah 7:14, 9:6, 43:11; John 1:1, 3, 14, 18, 29; Romans 3:19–25; Romans 5:6–15; Philippians 2:5–11; 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18; 1 Timothy 2:5, 3:16; Titus 2:10–15; Hebrews 7:26, 9:24–28; 1 Peter 1:19, 2:2; 1 John 1:3; Revelation 20:1–6)

We believe the Holy Spirit of God is a person of the Godhead who is presently indwelling and directing the development of believers and advancement of the gospel in the world. The Holy Spirit is sent to regenerate, sanctify, seal, and indwell all who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ. (Genesis 1:2; John 3:5–6, 14:16; Acts 1:5, 11:15; 1 Corinthians 3:16, 6:19–20; 1 Corinthians 12:13)

We believe that all men are sinners by nature and are therefore separated from God. Faith in Jesus Christ is the only hope of salvation and redemption from this broken and fallen condition. Those who reject Jesus Christ as personal Saviour are separated from God for eternity, but those who receive Jesus as Saviour are adopted into God’s family and given His gift of eternal life. (Genesis 5:1–5; Acts 4:19, 16:31; Romans 3:10–23, 5:6– 12, 6:23, 10:9–10; Ephesians 2:8–9; Titus 3:5–6; Revelation 20:11–14)

We believe the local church is Jesus’ institution for advancing His gospel and doing His work in the world. The church is made up of those who have been saved and biblically baptized—uniting and faithfully gathering together for the purposes of Bible teaching, worship, prayer, fellowship, service, and observance of baptism and communion. (Matthew 16:16–18; Acts 1:15, 2:41–43, 11:15, 20:28; 1 Corinthians 15: 51–58; Ephesians 1:12– 14, 5:25–30; 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18; 1 Timothy 3:4–15)

We believe that a Christian should grow in grace, learning a lifestyle that is becoming of the gospel and honoring to Jesus Christ—properly reflecting His love and holiness. We believe in separating from biblical heresy and from sinful, self-destructive, and immoral behavior. (Romans 12:1– 2, 14:13; 2 Corinthians 6:14–7:1; 2 Timothy 3:1–5; 1 John 2:15–17; 2 John 9– 11; Leviticus 19:28; 1 Corinthians 6:19–20)

We believe that we should demonstrate love for others—believers and unbelievers alike. We respond graciously, gently, patiently, and humbly to those who oppose the gospel. The church should be an environment where unconditional love flows from God’s grace at work in every heart. (Leviticus 19:18; Matthew 5:44–48; Luke 6:31; John 13:34–35; Romans 12:9–10, 17–21, 13:8–10; Philippians 2:2–4; 2 Timothy 2:24–26; Titus 3:2; 1 John 3:17–18)

We believe that God has given the church a great commission to proclaim the gospel to all nations, and that salvation is made available to anyone who will believe on Jesus, regardless of nation, tribe, ethnic group, language, or culture. As co-laborers together with God, we desire to actively, generously, and faithfully engage in worldwide missions and church planting until Jesus returns. (Matthew 28:19–20; Mark 16:15; Luke 24:46–48; John 20:21; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 5:20)

We believe that every Christian is a steward of the material gifts of God entrusted to him. Every Christian should grow in grace—understanding the generous heart of God and learning to reflect that heart with generosity toward God’s church and toward those in need. This generosity should be driven by grace (not obligation), empowered by gratitude, and should flow from a willing and cheerful heart for the development of the church and advancement of the gospel. (Genesis 14:20; Proverbs 3:9–10; Acts 4:34–37; 1 Corinthians 16:2; 2 Corinthians 9:6–7; Galatians 6:6; Ephesians 4:28; 1 Timothy 5:17–18; 1 John 3:17)

A Note from the Pastor

Contact Pastor Sevigne

Thanks for visiting our church website! My name is Donald Sevigne, and I’m a native New Englander from Holyoke, MA. I married my high school sweetheart, Marissa, in May of 2010, and together we served in full-time youth ministry in the Midwest from 2012 to 2018. God has given us a deep love for His kingdom, and we are excited to spend our lives reaching people here on Cape Cod.
We have been blessed with four boys—Donald Jr. (June 2011), Seth (January 2013), Charlie (May 2015), and Brady (October 2016). Our second son, Seth John, was diagnosed with nonverbal autism in March of 2017. Through this journey, God has faithfully guided us every step of the way.
Because of this, we have a special burden for the special-needs community here on Cape Cod. We desire to be an encouragement to families and to provide a place where you can worship, feel comfortable, and know 

that you are seen and valued.
God has been so good to our family, and He has taught us so much along the way. We would truly love to meet you—so come visit us at Coastline!
