Join Pastor Tony every Tuesday for Discipleship Training as we travel on an adventurous journey in the Acts of the Apostles. The early church and its development was nothing short of miraculous, exciting, and incredible. God did some wonderful things through the apostles and the other disciples as they faithfully carried out his commission and last words to take his eternal word to the uttermost parts of the earth.
Pastor Tony is taking us through their experiences and how it plays a part in our experiences as we too share Christ the people we meet. Join him Tuesday 7:00 pm

Ministry Leaders and members are all invited to attend this all-important 2nd training session. Building in our VISION and Core Values, let us STRIVE together, aligning our skills and talents, communing and having all things common.
The life we’ve been called to live as Believers in Christ is full of adventure. Exciting things were a part of Moses life, Joshua’s life, Ruth and David. And each one of them could tell of their respective journeys and how God’s grace and hope was included. Let’s enter into a life of unspeakable joy as we “Adventure with God” together. It’s The BereanWay!

All Ministry Leaders and Ministry Team Members are asked to join Pastor Tony and the Leadership Team for a moment of training, leading and growing.
Team Berea, as we S.T.R.I.V.E. in 2025, let us do it together. This week offers us a great opportunity to do it in “sound doctrine, teaching and being taught, reaching up & reaching out, interceding in prayer, valuing others and evangelizing with the gospel“. It’s an assignment we here at New Berean have been tasked to do under the leadership of Pastor Tony. Being there are many members of this one body, we all have roles that compliment and work together (I Cor. 12:12-31). See you some time this week.

Are you Striving in Christ today? To STRIVE is to know and live by “Sound Doctrine”. It is the process of “Teaching, Training and availing yourself to be Taught” in that sound doctrine. To STRIVE is to “Intercede for Others” in prayer. “Valuing Others” and “Evangelizing with the Gospel” is the process of STRIVING in Christ. It is simply being about our heavenly Father’s Business wherever we are.
We are God’s “masterpiece” created in Christ unto good works (Eph. 2:10). Not only should we be pursuing good works, but good works should our lingering testimony. Let God’s finish his perfect work which he started in us.
E – Evangelize with the Gospel
N- Nobly Search & Study the Scriptures
Taking Christ to the People
