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

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

To “strive” is to make great efforts to achieve or obtain something. To deliberately put forth something extra. Paul, the Apostle wrote about pressing towards the goal of Christ (Phil. 3:14). He knew living the life of Christ was going to be met with a variety of challenges calling for an extra effort.

  • S – Sound Teaching
  • T – Train to Lead
  • R – Reaching Out
  • I – Intercede for Others
  • V – Value Others
  • E – Evangelize
  • And every man who strives for mastery is temperate in all things…I Cor. 9:25a

The goal of being like Christ is the life of a servant with a mindset of humility and disciple (Heb. 5:8). It is a life in 2025 that God would have each one of us. Let us strive in Christ, through the power of the Holy Spirit to glorify our Lord God, as our Savior lived

Together we are going to STRIVE in 2025 beginning this Sunday with Sunday School LIVE! Join us as we prepare, train and educate one another to make the extra effort to grow in our faith, it’s The BereanWay

Sunday School LIVE !, our adult Sunday School class session begins this Sunday, January 5th at 9:00 am
Sunday School Students LIVE! provides a exciting and interactive learning and teaching platform for our school aged youths to give them the tools they will need to be the next generations of Daniels, Shadrachs and Meshachs of our day.

Relive our Watch Night service message by Pastor Tony, “Hope on the Other Side”

2025

With God, nothing is Impossible” Matthew 19:26

God lead and delivered Israel from bondage to freedom (Ex. 14). He delivered them from their oppressors (Ex. 6:13). And He delivered the from all their enemies (Jdg. 8:34). What they thought was an impossible task, was only in the realm of possibilities of n omnipotent God. The same God in whom Abraham, Noah, David and Paul trusted, is the same God in whom we will trust and believe in for the impossible.

The BereanWay is to “Believe God for the Impossible“, to “Adventure with God“, to “Evangelize with the Gospel”, and more. It is the vision we share here at New Berean, to grow, live move and have our being. It is where we are because it is where God is leading us. Let us share God’s vision with you and your family as we venture into the abundant life in 2025.

Join us in fellowship for our annual Watch Night Worship service. Celebrating and reflecting on the majestic hand of power and grace of God throughout 2024. And as we are anticipating His to lead, guide, provide and feed us, let us be found faithful in our devotion, service walk with him.

Van services will be provided if requested.

Sunday School LIVE & Sunday School Students LIVE will commence this Sunday and will continue throughout the new year. Sunday School LIVE is a planned series of lessons in line with The BereanWay to “Educate and Equip the Saints for Ministry“. Adults and Students alike will experience and exciting presentation of the word of God that will enable, equip and supply us with the tools we need to both growth in our faith in Christ and share our faith to a world in desperate need of the Savior.
