God never forgets his people. But the 400 years of divine silence following the Old Testament can make you think he does. Among God's forgotten people is an elderly forgotten couple, barren but faithful. They had yearned and prayed for children and now their time had passed. They were no longer asking or hoping for a child. God seemed silent but he was working out an incredible plan that included them. Just when all hope seems lost God tends to show up and do his best work. We can only marvel.

Alcohol is a polarizing drink. The same liquid that brings enjoyment to some, brings destruction for others. Can I enjoy the pleasure of alcohol without getting stung by the pain of alcoholism? Let's wrap up our Difficult Decisions series by searching Scripture for wisdom to one of life's most challenging decisions: to drink or not to drink?

Food is central. We all eat on a daily basis, typically. Multiple times a day. Holidays and events are centered around food. Whenever we go on dates it is almost always “out to dinner” or some activity followed up by, you guessed it, food! Food is no doubt important to us, but is it important to God? What does He think about food? Does God care what food we eat, or why we eat it? Is there a larger purpose for food than we may be aware of?

We are bombarded with messages through movies, music, and social feeds that seek to shape our beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors. These stories are powerful, often pulling us in and even moving us. So, will we be moved? Is there a way to engage with the world's content without having our faith compromised? This week we'll look to God's word as we seek discernment for media decisions.

How come I can't find a perfect church? Why does it seem like every church I attend is so messed up? How do I leave my church well? How do I find a new church? Why is church even important? What is church? Ironically, churches rarely provide answers to these hard questions. This Sunday at Berean, we'll do our best to equip you with a new way of thinking about church. It'll be a mindset shift that pleases God and benefits you.

Have you noticed how much football gets mentioned by the pastors of Berean? Is that okay? The fall sports seasons are in full swing and many Christian families are at a game Sunday morning instead of in a church building. Is that okay?

500 years ago, when the Roman Catholic Church was basically “the” church, a young Catholic priest found himself deeply convicted as he read through Scripture. The church's teaching did not align with God's Word. He tried to reform the church from within but was kicked out, forced to start a protest church that we are part of today – the Protestant Church. We believe God's Word is our highest authority and are calling Catholics and every person on earth back to God's unchanging truth. Let's learn

Did you know that over 4 billion people in the world are associated with religions, faiths, or groups that recognize Jesus in some way. But do they all believe in the same Jesus.

Over the next few months, the days will get shorter, the darkness will be longer, and the air will get colder. The conditions are perfect to withdraw. Isolation is the epidemic of our region.

We live in a culture of immediacy, but God often has us wait. He uses these times to work in us. Looking at the story of Abraham, we learn that a "wait" answer is not a sign of God's absence, but an opportunity to draw closer to Him as He refines our faith and teaches us to fully surrender control.
