How it all started...
In 1986, Holmes Terrace Baptist Church in Memphis, TN, purchased 10 acres on a two-lane road in Mississippi known as Goodman Road. From that time forward, services were held in a borrowed building while members volunteered their time and labor to build a church. On June 14, 1987, Clearview Baptist Church held the first service in the new building at our now current location of 3345 Goodman Road E in Southaven, MS.

Where we are headed...
Under Pastor Knepshield's leadership, Clearview Baptist Church has grown, not only in numbers, but in our impact on the community. God has greatly blessed us by allowing us to add an Administrative Building as well as a Classroom/Gymnasium Building for the Clearview Baptist School, started in 2016.
Our goal is to win souls and disciple believers. We do that through our community outreach, discipleship program, powerful preaching from the Word of God, and ministering to the needs of people. Until the Lord returns, our desire to share the Gospel throughout DeSoto County.
