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

To S.T.R.I.V.E. is to make a conscience and deliberate decision or effort to follow through with a plan. A plan is good in theory but is not complete until the effort is made. Paul, wrote to the saints in Philippi: “ I strive towards the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Phil. 3:14 to describe his mindset towards the things of the One who had saved him.

Being imprisoned was not going to be his reason for not pressing but it was going to be his reason for following Christ. He felt the new life he had in Christ was worth the effort to love others as he loved. To seek unity and to walk in holiness as Jesus did was the only life he wanted to live. We as believers and followers of the Lord Jesus have the same calling on our life and we too are to S.T.R.I.V.E. for the masteries of Christ. We are encouraged to STRIVE in unity among the brethren, walk in holiness and serve others with the passion of Christ to please our heavenly Father.

S – STRIVE in Sound Doctrine, I Timothy 1:10

T – STRIVE in Teaching and Training Others – Matthew 28:20, 2 Timothy 2:2

R – Reach Up & Reach Out, I Peter 4:10

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

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

Pastor Tony – Discipleship Training Acts 16

STRIVE CrossDownload

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.
