Epidemic & Growth

Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength… I will continue with the rest of the passage from The Message: Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love Him with all that […]
We are Still the Church

As I walk around the church facilities it is quiet. The ministries that once occupied these rooms are on hold and it is painfully quiet to me. You might say that the church is ‘on hold’ because of this pandemic but that is far from the truth. Times like this really show us that the […]
Encouraged

For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you. — Philemon 1:7 The Apostle Paul once wrote to Philemon, his brother in Christ. The letter pertained to an issue with one of Philemon’s servants, but Paul took the opportunity to tell of […]
He is NOT Here, He is risen, just as He said

EASTER HAS BEEN CANCELLED… or has it? Well, no doubt, this is an Historic Easter Sunday. Maybe the first time in church history where the church was not gathered for the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. My favorite children’s book about Easter is, “The Best Thing About Easter” by Christine Harder […]
Trust in the Lord

More than ever I am reminded of the Proverbs 3:5-6. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.” As we navigate these days dealing with the COVID-19 virus, it is easy for us to […]
When the church can’t meet

“And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.” — Hebrews 10:24–25 In light of the imposed restrictions from COVID-19 (Coronavirus), Eastern Hills Baptist Church will cease […]
Do we love God like our dog loves us?
Blessed are those whose ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord. Blessed are those who keep His statutes and seek Him with all their heart- they do no wrong but follow His ways. You have laid down precepts that are to be fully obeyed. Oh, that my ways were steadfast […]
Where were we? Where are we?
“According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilledmaster builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.” – 1 Corinthians 3:10–11 Have you seen the gallery […]
Christian Discipline
I was not a very gullible child. I guess it was because we did so much camping in the Everglades. My brother, sister and I grew up with a healthy understanding and respect for nature so it really should not have been such a big surprise to my scout leaders when I would not go […]
Our Jerusalem
WOW! Sunday morning worship was wonderful! The spirit of the Lord was all over that service. From the music to the message it was truly a time of “Worship.” Dewayne Rembert did a wonderful job in sharing God’s Word and telling about his journey to Christ. We are blessed to have him as a part […]
