S.T.R.I.V.E. Towards Fellowship

Saturday is for Sharing

Sharing the good news of God’s eternal love, is our Father’s Business. Join us this Saturday as we take the Gospel to where the people are, in the Marketplace. Wherever you are, wherever you go, let a stranger know that God loves them and cares for them (The Gospel of God).

Sunday is For Fellowship and Worship

We would like to invite you to join us for a time of fellowship, worship and the preaching of God’s word this Sunday. Not only is it biblical to meet regularly, but gathering offers every believer in the Lord an opportunity to share with others our adventures in Christ. We get to evangelize with the gospel and encourage others with impossibilities that have now been made possible. Meeting on Sunday at New Berean, is The BereanWay

Join us for a time blessing and encouragement here at The BereaWay

For the believer, victory over anything comes only through Jesus Christ our Lord. Jesus offers the abundant life to all who believe

but thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ… Be steadfast, unmovable always abounding in the work of the knowing your labor is not in vain in the Lord” I Cor. 15:58

S.T.R.I.V.E. in Unity

S.T.R.I.V.E. in Unity, We Are Called is the message from Pastor Tony this past Sunday. God has called us as believers to a life of godliness, holiness and unity. In order to live out our calling, we must faithfully obey His word with is the truth and allow ourselves to be changed and transformed by it. It is not just for “others” to change their ways, but it is for us. We have been called with a supernatural ability (through the person of the Holy Spirit) to do a supernatural task in a natural environment

Sunday’s Coming

Be a part of the single greatest expression of love by sharing the good news of God (I Corinthians15:1-7, “The Gospel“) in the marketplace. God’s word is clear on the reality of his love for us. Not only does he love his human creation enough to allow his son, Jesus to die on our behalf, but his love sustains us in him throughout all eternity and nothing can break that bond (Rom. 8:38-39). Every 3rd and 4th Saturday, we’re looking for you to share Christ and him crucified in the marketplace or wherever you may be with the intent to plant the seed of the word of God in someone’s heart, or water that seed that someone else has already planted or be the one who God will use to bring that soul to salvation in Christ.

S.T.R.I.V.E. in 2025 in Unity

The Lord our God challenges us, urges us, encourages us to pray to pray without ceasing, leaving nothing out about everything.

We are in a warfare in the spiritual realm that cannot be combated with physical weapons (Eph. 6:10-19).
