Have you ever wondered if there was more to life than what you were experiencing? As great as life might be when you get the job or marry the love of your life or experience some other incredible high, that high only lasts so long. In Matthew 6, Jesus addresses the question we all face at some point: What is life for? And he makes the astounding claim that your life is too important to waste on anything less than eternity.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #treasure #sundaysermon #money #meaning #meaningoflife #attitude #kingdom #wayoflife #createdformore #findforgivenesslivedifferently

Shakespeare wrote that all the world’s a stage. In today’s world of digital media, it can feel as though we have to constantly perform because someone’s always watching. Even at church. But God wants our hearts, not a performance.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #performance #faith #character #attitude #kingdom #wayoflife #forgiveness #findforgivenesslivedifferently

If you’re a parent, you want to set your kids up for success. In Deuteronomy 6, Moses tells the Israelites how they’re to raise their children so that they’ll experience the kind of lasting and true success that only God can give. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #parenting #success #wayoflife #findforgivenesslivedifferently

What does it mean to be perfect? Most people would probably say that “to be perfect” means to never make a mistake, never do the wrong thing, and never make the wrong choice. But in Jesus’ estimation, the highest standard of perfection is demonstrated in love for one’s enemies.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #perfection #justice #revenge  #loveyourenemy #kingdom #wayoflife #forgiveness #findforgivenesslivedifferently

Who can you trust? Looking at social media or listening to politicians, it can feel like everyone’s only out for themselves. And if other people can’t be trusted to honor their commitments or do what’s in your best interest, it’s tempting to play by the same rules ourselves. But what a world collapsing under the weight of our collective distrust needs are people whose “yes” means “yes” and “no” means “no.”More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #trust #commitment #kingdom #wayoflife #findforgivenesslivedifferently

Everyone knows it’s wrong to murder. But what about getting angry with someone? Or insulting them? How bad is getting mad really? In this teaching from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus tells us that the root issue behind murder and blind rage are the same: the inability to see the image of God in the other person. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #anger #forgiveness #kingdom #wayoflife #findforgivenesslivedifferently

Have you ever been faced with the reality that your best wasn’t good enough? In this teaching from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus warns that if we ask the question, am I good enough for God to love me? We won’t like the answer. Thankfully, there’s a better question he wants us to ask.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #goodenough #forgiveness #kingdom #wayoflife #findforgivenesslivedifferently

There are moments when we catch a glimpse of Jesus. Such snapshots can be indelibly impactful. When you see that His actions reveal His character and the power His presence has in the lives of those present, you can't help but want to be more like Him. The self-reflection which ensues can be a key decision point in your day and even your life because, in that moment, the decision to live differently ripples out far and wide.Those around you might not immediately see your change and so they grumble at the idea that you can live differently. Don't be dissuaded!Jesus reveals glimpses of himself to us for larger transformative purposes both in us and in our relationships (to Him and to others).More info at ebc.org or message usThank you for subscribing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #sundaysermon #lifechange #hope #regeneration #glimpse #victory #Jesus #glory #jesuschangeseverything #transformation #findforgivenesslivedifferently 

At some level we all experience brokenness.At EBC,, we believe that people can experience growth and new life by working through the healing path God has given us in the Bible. So whatever struggles are holding you back in your relationship with God, others, or even yourself, come as you are and find a God who loves you, has a plan for you, and wants to restore you.Pastor Steve (and friends) share God's path to finding forgiveness and living differently when we come to the realization that God wants us to have freedom, friendship, and fullness of life.The message is titled, "From Glory to Glory."More info at ebc.org or message usThank you for subscribing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #sundaylivestream #lifechange #hope #regeneration #struggle #victory#Jesus #glory #jesuschangeseverything #transformation #findforgivenesslivedifferently

We all aspire to be something–someone special. Yet when we take an honest inventory, we realize that we just can’t seem to get there. For me, I’m never satisfied with my level of understanding, physical fitness, intelligence, and depth of relationships. There’s just so much in life where I feel like a failure. For example, in my relationship with Jesus, I feel like I’m constantly tripped up by the same sins. I want to be better. In holiness, I want to become more of who I was designed to be. And in all of my effort to turn what I aspire to be to what I actually am, I find that I can lose my focus on my first true love, on Jesus and what he’s done for me. You see, there’s a secret to our faith. There’s a maxim to our relationship with the Lord. The deeper we ponder it, the more we seek to understand, the more he lifts us out of our own personal pit of sin. Oh, I’ve tried it the other way, by focusing on the sin. But it will just drag you back down like a whirlpool in the Delaware. But there is a way out! There

What do you hope for? At one level, most of us probably have a vague hope that our lives will have meaning, forlove and happiness, that justice will win out, and that we’ll enjoy our lives and not suffer too much. (Basically, wehope our lives don’t stink!) But without a basis for our hope, our hopes amount to little more than wishful thinking.When Jesus was killed, his followers’ hopes for a better world died with him. But when Jesus walked out of thegrave, he gave us a hope that can change the world. Our hope lives because Jesus is alive.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #hope #hopelives #easter #newlife #jesusosalive #forgiveness #decision #believe #wishfulthinking #changetheworld #findforgivenesslivedifferently

When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, ‘Who is this?’—Matthew 21:10Who is Jesus? For some Jesus was the Messiah, the king God had promised from the line of David. For others, he was a prophet, a teacher, or a miracle worker. For others, he was a dangerous heretic or a madman who had to be stopped. When Jesus enters Jerusalem on his way to the cross, Jesus forces the question: who is he? How you answer that will determine everything about your future, both in this life and the next. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #whoisthis #whoareyou #kingdom #newlife #forgiveness #decision #thewaythetruthandthelife #changetheworld #findforgivenesslivedifferently

Have you ever felt like you were dispensable… maybe disposable or replaceable? Sure, your mom thinks you’re special, but you’re just one of more than eight billion people on the planet! It’s easy to feel like your life doesn’t really matter much in the grand scheme of things, that the world is just too big for your life to make any real difference. But in his most famous sermon, Jesus tells us to that there is a way of life that, while not always popular, is essential for the world’s good. That despite what the world might think, you are indispensable to the good that God wants to create in the world through you.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #indispensable #makeadifference  #kingdom #wayoflife #thewaythetruthandthelife  #changetheworld #lovegodservepeople

Easton's Pastor of Family Ministries Luke McAlack shares from the book of Acts Chapter 1 verses 6-11, that we have been granted the power to be witnesses to the Gospel; beginning with ourselves, family, community, and people from every background because God loves us and God loves each and every person we meet. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #church #power #witness #kingdom #wayoflife #thewaythetruthandthelife #allpeople #changetheworld #lovegodservepeople

Has anyone ever tried to convince you to do something a different way? It could be how you cook a particular dish or how you drive or how you parent or how you exercise. And getting that kind of advice isn’t always solicited or welcomed! But sometimes it’s the advice we need.As part of our current series, over the next few weeks we’ll be unpacking Jesus’ famous Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5–7. In his sermon, Jesus gives us more than just advice. He introduces us to an altogether different way to live. And it’s more than just a radical picture of what life is like in his kingdom; it’s his strategy to turn the world’s way of doing things upside down. Because when you live like the kingdom, you bring the kingdom.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #church #beatitudes #theway #kingdom #wayoflife #

Institutions exist for the sake of existing. Movements exist for the sake of making a difference. When Jesus calls us out of the hopelessness of sin and death, he’s not calling us to be part of an institution. He’s calling us into his movement to change the world.More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon #church #movement #theway #kingdom #wayoflife #thewaythetruthandthelife #institution #changetheworld #lovegodservepeople

Privilege, power, and popularity are the subtle drugs of celebrity. There’s nothing inherently wrong with having status or being famous. But when being seen as powerful or important becomes essential to your identity—either who you think you are or who you wish to be—the temptation to do whatever it takes to gain that level of prominence can become overpowering. And, if you’re not careful, you just might, as Jesus warns, gain the whole world, but lose your soul (Matt. 16:26).Following his baptism, Jesus goes into the desert where he’s tempted by the devil to make a name for himself, to seize the privileged position as the only Son of God, by betraying his Father, his mission, and himself. But rather than relishing a life of celebrity, Jesus shows us a better way. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email (office@ebc.org), DM us on Instagram or Facebook, or come see us in person at Easton Bible Church. Thank you for subscribing and sharing.#eastonbiblechurch #hainesportnj #jesus #sundaysermon
