Ebenezer Baptist Hillsborough, NC

Is generosity dead? That may seem like a bleak question, but has the me-first mentality consumed the spirit of self-sacrifice? The church has been called to be generous, but what does that mean?

As we conclude the series “Start Here” this Sunday at 10:30am, we will learn that generosity includes so much more than stewardship of physical wealth. Will you join us in this intriguing discussion about this impactful characteristic of authentic Jesus-followers?

Give thanks! You might have to dive deep to really proclaim your gratitude for this year. Let’s be honest, it’s been tough. However, we have to ask, “did God know all this was coming?”

This week, we will explore what it means to entrust something. You see, God is not surprised by the circumstances, but He might have an opinion about our response. Join us at 10:30am this Sunday for a look at Matthew 25.

The tension within our world because of economic, health, and social unrest puts everyone on edge. Responses come with a sharper tone and the rampant sharing of opinions has taken control. Chaos and conflict can derail our desire to love others well.

What if there was a perspective on the environments of our day that enabled you to love others through grace without compromising a biblical stand? In this last installment from the Ephesians series, we’ll discuss Paul’ battle ready, battle tested prescription for God’s people.

In a week marked with volatility and angst, it’s easy to question where the truth is. It’s seems fluid, doesn’t it. But that’s not altogether true. We can’t change truth. Truth doesn’t change.

When we discuss truth, we must consider God. He is the unchanging constant in a tumultuous world. So why do so many discount God, what He says, and His plan? Join us this Sunday for a message entitled, “Truth Doesn’t Change” as we continue our study of Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.

What brings unity in diversity? Everyone has an opinion and the narratives on every side can stimulate your emotions. As we embark on this week of elections and continued division in our country, it is imperative that we consider a solution.

Even the church struggles with unity and diversity. Paul understood the dynamics of individuals that can be driven by personal desire. Yet Paul gives the Ephesians a new way to live in unity. That's the discussion for this week's message. Join Pastor Bob as we explore God's Word in Ephesians 4.

When someone gives you a backstage pass or sideline privileges, it comes with access to something special. Usually not shared, it allows you to go places that others cannot. God has provided us an all access pass to Himself through faith in Jesus Christ.

Join us Sunday as we explore the privilege with which believers are entrusted from our study of Ephesians 3. It’s time to pick up your all access pass!

With a critical election in our country just around the corner, it is important that your vote counts. Because…voting is influence. Your vote might change the way you live. Paul’s letter to the Ephesian church was a description of a new way to live, even in the tension of rivaling loyalties.

Join us this week as Pastor Bob unpacks Ephesians 2 and the clear distinctions we face in the voting booth. The results might just lead to a great time of victorious celebration.

How would you define the word “blessing”? It’s a curious notion that the things that are good from our perspective are a blessing, and yet, the things that are difficult or tragic would not. How would you rate God on His record of blessing?

As we begin this 7-week series from Ephesians, we will discover or be reminded that the Gospel calls us to a new way to live. Join us as we examine the question, “Am I All In?” For message resources such as notes and a weekly study plan, visit www.ebcconnect.org/onlinemessageresources.

This year marks the 125th anniversary of Ebenezer Baptist Church. Today, we celebrate God's faithfulness and grace. As we look back at our heritage, we also consider what this generation will leave as a legacy.

Our guest speaker for today is Dr. Chuck Register, Associate Executive Director-Treasurer and Director of Church Planting and Missions Partnerships for the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina.

In small and large ways, promises are part of everyday life. We promise to pay back loans, change habits, eat healthier, slow down, and more. But what about when God promises? Do we measure the faithfulness of God by our own ability to keep our promises?

This Sunday, we will consider how we respond to God’s promises and why this is important when life throws us a curve.
