Our Mission
To be grounded in Scripture and prayer, growing together as family, and going forth with the gospel of Jesus Christ, making disciples in Hastings and beyond!
Our core values
Relational Worship
—Exalting God individually and corporately honors our Lord and connects us to Him.
God-Sized Prayer
—Actively depending on the Lord through prayer is critical to experiencing the life He's called us to.
Refining Discipleship
—Helping each other continue to learn to be more like Jesus is part of following Him.
Authentic Community
—Being part of God's community means we love each other and build one another up through meaningful relationships.
Everyday Evangelism
—Our love for Jesus compels us to introduce Him to those next door and those around the world.
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. You can learn more about the Berean Fellowship at their website WeAreBerean.org.
