Tonight we challenged each other concerning the events that would happen in the world as revealed in chapters 8 & 9.

Over the past weeks, through the teachings of Pastor Tony, God has revealed some great and terrifying things that people will experience. We are reminded there will come a day in which will judge he world (Acts 17:30-31).

But God…

who is rich in mercy is not willing that any should perish, but would that all come to repentance to a saving relationship with Jesus has commanded  us to tell and warn the whole world of his coming judgement (2 Pet. 3:9)

What did you do this weekend?

We went to the Harvest Fest over at New Berean this weekend. We petted the animals (no lions, tigers or bears), played in the bounce house, listened to live music, greeted and met some people in the community with love and a New Berean welcome. We offered our guests some good to great information of the social and community services available to them. We thank the Lord for his grace, wisdom for our annual Harvest fest. The rains came a stopped, We adjusted and were blessed, Whew!

Sunday School LIVE!

L.iving I.n V.ictory E.veryday is Sunday School LIVE! We invite you to consider , “Adventuring with God” with us here at New Berean. God’s ways are higher than ours (Isa. 55:9) and he has a plan for our lives (Jer. 29:11).

We have been called by God to be “Educated and Equipped for the work of the Ministry” (Matt. 28:20) and by faith we have chosen to worship him through “Nobly Studying and Searching the Scriptures” through this platform we call Sunday School, LIVE!

The wisdom of the scriptures is unparalleled. The way the Proverbs lay out the comparison between those who are considered as wise and the folly to those who are wise and the success. God has a way of educating us so too can be wise and equipping us to carry out sound doctrine in our everyday life.

Going into our 37th year of ministry here at New Berean, we are reminded of the eternal grace and favor of the Lord our God to has allowed us to have impacted, challenged and changed lives of people who have both come and gone through the work.

Because of his hand, God has guided, led and fed this flock with sound teaching from men and women of godly integrity, stabled them with his direction and sheltered them with his hope and we say, “Amen”.

Because of his faithfulness to his work and his people, we are the more excited to, “Believe God for the Impossible” as we, “Adventure with God” through the unpredictable, while he, “Educates and Equips” us for the work of the ministry. “The BereanWay” is God’s vision for New Berean on the next leg of the journey towards his glory

Watch and Pray for Great Things

Meet the First “First” Family of New Berean Baptist Church

37 years ago, God opened up the door for Leroy E. Ricks Sr, to establish a new local New Testament ministry. Founded on the principles of The Commission of Christ (Matthew 28:18-20), Pastor Ricks followed the Lord’s call to “preach to the lost, baptize those would believe and disciple those who would follow”. Along with two other families, Howard & Reba Bernard and Harold & Mable Jackson, New Berean held its first service in his living room.

Our Founder, Pastor Leroy E. Ricks, Sr, had lived his life as strong independent family man until the Lord called his name for this great work. Continue to keep Sister Ricks in your prayers and the Ricks family in caring for one charter members of this ministry.

Tidbit of Berean Trivia

The history and memories are also etched in the hearts and minds of the many lives touched and impacted over the years through the ministry and we are grateful for the gracious hand of the Lord. Through all the hard times, triumphs, the pauses (COVID), Pastor Ricks passing, many have come and gone, some have chosen to stay, but through it all God has been faithful.

As we embark in our third year under the godly leadership of Pastor Tony Harris, we expect to “Adventure with God” by “Believing God for the Impossible” as the lives of those here are “Educated and Equipped for the Work of the Ministry” with our “Youth Focused” while “Evangelizing with the Gospel“. We are expecting more people to “Adore God“, “Reach Up and Reach Out” for divine direction and service, by “Welcoming All Who Come” and as we are like the Bereans of Acts 17:11, will “Nobly Search and Study the Scriptures” by faith to the glory of God… It’s The BereanWay.

Meet the “First” Family of New Berean Baptist Church

This month we Celebrate our 37th Victory in the person of Antonio B Harris, God’s gift to The BereanWay. God used Moses to lead the Hebrews from bondage to blessing. God chose Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel to feed the Israelites his word, his provisions and promises. Paul wrote how God gave gifts to the believers in the form of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. Pastor Tony has been given to us by God to lead, oversee and feed the flock assembly here at New Berean. Prior to being called here, he served as Pastor of Highland Avenue served here at New Berean as the Youth Pastor.

Pastor Tony and Samantha are the parents of three young adult children, Darius, Jair & Destini.

As we pray for God’s wisdom and stamina in the work of the ministry for him, let us continue to serve him in our respective roles as he serves us, encourage him and encourages us and follow Christ as he follows the Lord.

We welcome you to join us on the special and divinely appointed adventure of God

Sunday mornings for every believer in Christ is a time of fellowship, praying together, encouraging, refreshing, serving and being a blessing to someone. Its a special time the Lord encourages and admonishes his people who are called by his name, NOT to neglect or forsake assembling as others have done (Heb. 10:24-25). Be encouraged in the Lord and be our special guest this week.

Join us this Sunday for Sunday School L.I.V.E! We have a place for you to be taught, “Educated and Equipped for the Work of the Ministry”. Every week presents a lesson designed to bring us to a “crossroad” in our life to either follow Christ unto salvation or follow Christ in discipleship unto sanctification.

Note: Due to some PRIVACY requests, some images were not published.

“But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Victory is being celebrated here at The BereanWay the Lord as we “Adventure with the Lord”, “Belive God for the Impossible
