2019 Faithful

 

(http://aplaceforyou NULL.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Bookmark NULL.jpg)

Being found faithful is the heart of every follower of Christ. In 2019 Ebenezer is purposefully focusing on growing more faithful as we become mature disciples of Jesus Christ. Together, as we encourage and exhort one another, we hope to hear, “Well done faithful servants.” We hope that you will join us as we strive to be faithful with our whole lives (Matthew 25:21)! Free bookmarks are available in the church foyer to remind us throughout the year to Grow, Love, Tell, Give, Serve, and Live. The Sermon on January 6th (https://livestream NULL.com/EBFCStream/weekly-sunday-service-2018/videos/185461934) focused on this theme and several more throughout the year will as well.

• GROW in devotion – [Worship] attendance in worship, personal prayer & Bible reading (February 3, 2019 (https://livestream NULL.com/EBFCStream/weekly-sunday-service-2019/videos/186759306))
• LOVE others – [Community] Loving one another (April 7, 2019 (https://livestream NULL.com/EBFCStream/weekly-sunday-service-2019/videos/189680822))
• TELL the lost – [Evangelism] Sharing our faith on a regular basis (June 9, 2019 (http://livestream NULL.com/EBFCStream/weekly-sunday-service-2019/videos/192290242))
• GIVE generously – [Stewardship] Committing to give on a regular basis (August 18, 2019 (https://livestream NULL.com/EBFCStream/weekly-sunday-service-2019/videos/195191286))
• SERVE with joy – [Kingdom] Volunteering to serve using our spiritual gifts
• LIVE in holiness – [Discipleship] Growing in godliness

His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’
~ Matthew 25:21

Join many people from Ebenezer BFC at this wonderful weekend conference. “Worship: The Chief End of Man” is this year’s theme. There isn’t a more important subject than worship. With all the excesses and errors that have seeped into the modern church, we need to hear God’s clear instruction from God’s word. This conference will cover “What is divine worship?,” “Whom do we worship?.” and “How do we worship according to the Word?”

The Bethel Series is a comprehensive study of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation in a classroom lecture format. Graduates find this course to be challenging but highly rewarding with life-changing benefits. Due to the intensity of the material, participation will require a high level of commitment to reading, memorization, and regular attendance from beginning to end. The class is for men & women, consists of six 7-week sessions, and spans over 2 years, Oct-April. The first year covers the Old Testament, and the second year covers the New Testament. Taught by Pastor Dick Bickings. Cost is $55/year for materials. Register online (https://form NULL.jotform NULL.com/92314431156147) by September 25, 2019.
