BEREAN BIBLE CHURCH

(The Simple Bible Church)

  An Independent Bible Church Located in Ephrata

(since 1987)  

Pastor Kelly Sensenig 

Dear Friend,

    With every passing year churches continue to follow the latest fads in church growth and music. In many churches entertainment has become the focus of the services. Here at the Berean Bible Church our focus is on the Biblical and traditional forms of worship.  We make no apology for the old-time religion.  It is not stale traditionalism but worship born out of deep respect for God and the Bible.

   The key focus here at the church is the Bible.  I preach and teach through Bible passages and entire books of the Bible so we can learn what the Bible actually says in a systematic fashion.  We can also discover how the Holy Spirit actually wrote the Bible.  Our name signifies that we want to be like the Berean believers of old who “searched the scriptures” (Acts 17:11).

   If you are looking for worship and not entertainment; if you are looking for music that stirs the soul rather than the feet; if you are looking for a firm Biblical foundation for living in an ever-changing world, then Berean Bible Church is for you.

Sincerely,

Pastor Kelly Sensenig

 

  WORSHIP AND MUSIC

 

   The worship and music of the Berean Bible Church is traditional.  The old hymns of the faith are still sung in a traditional and yet dynamic way that is still lively and joyful. Our worship services are based on a deep respect for God and the Bible.  The services maintain reverence for God’s holiness and house (I Peter 1:15-16).

 

In a few words, our worship and ministry are:

  Biblical      Conservative   Traditional

Reverent  Uplifting    Heart-warming

Soul-stirring

 

BUT NOT:

 

  Entertaining   Contemporary

Trendy  Ecumenical  Charismatic

Compromising

    

PREACHING

      The preaching of the Berean Bible Church is doctrinal, challenging, life-changing, and practical. Pastor Sensenig delivers a powerful message from the King James Bible so that families can grow spiritually and get Bible answers to life’s problems.

   The Berean Bible Church was founded in 1987 in order to evangelize, see people saved, and then help them grow spiritually through learning the Bible.

   We are an independent, fundamental ministry, centered upon the Word of God. We believe the Bible to be the inspired, inerrant, and completed canon of Scripture.

 

  We believe in :

  the Trinity   the Deity, death, burial, resurrection, and ascension of Christ

salvation by the grace of God  the eternal security of believers in Christ

water baptism for this age (immersion)  

the church as the body of Christ which began in Acts 2

dispensations   missions   spiritual separation of the people of God

promoting Biblical family values
