The BereanWay at New Berean Baptist Church
"And he himself gave some as apostles and some as prophets and some as evangelists and some as pastors and teachers 12 for the equipping of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for building up the body of Christ," Eph 4:11-12
When the Lord established, developed and organized "the church", he included an element within the ministry to oversee, direct, feed, lead and guide his flock. We call them Pastors. It was and is God's gift to his people as a means to help us reflect through our growth and maturity his love and hope for this world.
To God's glory, we celebrate and honor (I Tim. 5:17) God's gift to the New Berean ministry in the person of Tony Maximus, for the past three years, His labor of love to the people of God and devotion to the word of God have been an incredible blessing and encouragement amid the challenges of our time.
Continue to keep Pastor Tony, his wife and family lifted up before God's throne of grace that he too would serve out his calling here with grace and joy. Celebrate with!
