Paul Chappell is an American pastor who has served as the senior pastor of Lancaster Baptist Church since 1986. He is the president and founder of West Coast Baptist College, Lancaster Baptist School, and Striving Together publications.

In 1986, twelve members called Chappell to pastor the Lancaster Baptist Church in Lancaster, California. The church was in foreclosure and could offer no pastoral salary. Chappell and his family moved to Lancaster. In the first Sunday evening service, Chappell brought the message from Philippians 1:27 and asked the church to “strive together” with him to reach the community with the gospel. In the months that followed, Chappell personally knocked on five hundred doors each week, inviting people to church and telling them how they could know Jesus Christ as their Savior. In the pulpit, he began preaching verse-by-verse through portions of Scripture.

Chappell was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota but spent most of his early childhood and teen years in Northern California, and he graduated from high school in Seoul, South Korea. Chappell enrolled at the Pacific Coast Baptist Bible College and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Pastoral Theology in 1983. While attending college, he founded and pastored the Seaside Baptist Church near Indio, California. He received a Master of Arts degree from the Louisiana Baptist University in Shreveport, Louisiana, and was later honored with a Doctor of Divinity degree from Trinity Baptist College in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1995.

Chappell and his wife Terrie were married in 1980, and they have two daughters and two sons. All four of their children serve in full time ministry with their spouses.
