About
Who we are
We’re a group of imperfect people who love Jesus and believe the Bible is God’s Word. We won't settle for shallow and are committed to being Generationally Deep. We welcome the presence and work of God in our lives to keep us Organically Growing. And we refuse to move past the simple gospel that defines us as Following Jesus.
Sound like your cup of tea (or coffee)? We would love to have you join us in God's work!

Why Berean?
The early church
—In the early church the people of the city of Berea were celebrated for their desire to learn the truth about God from Scripture (Acts 17:11). We want to be like them. Our desire is to learn the truth about God and how to live out His mission. This is reflected in our commitment to the clear preaching and teaching of God’s Word.
The Berean Fellowship
—The Berean Fellowship’s mission is to plant and strengthen churches to make disciples to reach the world. At Hastings Berean Bible Church, we share in that mission by encouraging other Berean churches and supporting the Fellowship’s worldwide church planting efforts.
