The BereanWay, Educate & Equip

The “E” in The BereanWay of New Berean Baptist reminds us of our need to educate and be equipped with the “sword of the Spirit”, the word of God. Jesus stated that, “man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of GodMatt. 4:4. God places a balance on the importance of keeping our bodies in tune, both physically and spiritually. We will be kept in perfect peace, when our minds are kept on our Lord (Isa 26:3)

The BereanWay – Sunday

Join the family of New Berean and Senior Pastor Antonio “Tony” Harris, in worship, fellowship and the preaching of God’s word this Sunday
The BereanWay and Pastor Tony on YouTube

Sundays were made for fellowship, worship, singing songs of praise and hearing the word of God preached. Here at The BereanWay of New Berean, we are excited at this special opportunity to be in obedience to the scriptures to collectively gather, encourage, be encouraged and be ready to serve each other for God’s glory (Acts 4:32-35, Heb. 10:24-25).

As we face our daily challenges, it’s a blessing to know we have a family of like-minded people who we can look to for support and the Lord our God has given us that in the local church. So, don’t neglect the blessing of being in fellowship.

If you are in the 757-area code of Virginia looking for a local assembly committed to the commission of Christ, give New Berean a consideration and be our special guest this Sunday.

On four separate occasions, the Lord is recorded as adding to his church (Acts 2:41, 2:47,5:14 & 11:24) as he saw fit. It is his will to add to his church. If he chooses to add members as he sees fit, then it is the church’s responsibility to receive them, nurture them, care for and feed them. To give them love, friendship, fellowship, a place to grow, mature and serve.

The BereanWay this Summer

Join in with The BereanWay this summer as we “Adventure with God”. God has given us some things to employ in the ministry that will help us grow together and in Him.

VBS Saturday July 27, 9:00 am – 12:00 pm, Ages nursery to adults are invited

Vacation Bible School 2024 focuses this year on the “superpower” we all as believers have in the person of the Holy Spirit of God. If you were a Superhero, what would be your “superpower”? The ability to fly, see through walls, superhuman strength?  But you’re not a Superhero, you’re a Christian. What sets you apart from other people? Your faith in Christ is what you have been endowed with. God has given you his faith to believe and achieve. It is the gift of God (Eph 2:8-9) God’s “Superheros” we are and, in this year’s VBS we will adventure the wonders of God through faith. Pass-on this Invitation Card to a family member, friend or anyone

1st & 2nd Tuesday of every month

Pastor Tony is taking us through the Acts of the Apostles and the establishment of the early church through the evangelistic efforts of the disciples of the Lord

Marketplace Evangelism is how the early church as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles was established and exploded as it did. Everywhere there was a crowd, there were the follows of “the way” sharing, telling and inviting people to Christ. Even though we are venturing out every 3rd and 4th Saturday of every month, marketplace evangelism can and should take place whenever we as disciples of Christ are out the crowd of people who need to know him as their Savior. Join us as we “Reach Up to reach Out“, Its The BereanWay.


Community Support and Resources

Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia is offering their Seniors Farmer’s Market Nutrition Program, Click on the image for additional information and resources we as seniors can take advantage of.

One of our most challenging issues of our communities is that of our loved ones battling with dementia and Alzheimers and their support team. The Home Instead network is committed to helping seniors and their families cope with the challenges of Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias, and to helping seniors remain in the comfort of their own homes. Explore the opportunities available and share them with other who too can benefit.

Clean Up Before the Clean Out

As we move to make more room within the building for training and teaching classes, we are in need of ridding ourselves of some unused things like these chairs. If you would like some of these chairs for your own, contact one of the Trustees to pick them up. We have about 30 chairs and they will be given out first come first serve.
