Our lives are full of blessings flowing our way. Unfortunately, it’s tempting to try and keep those blessings only for ourselves. But hoarding the good God gives won’t make you happy or healthy. Real joy comes when your life is a river bringing blessing to others.

Worship and Recovery Pastor Steve Johansson shares that we all belong to and were created to live life within community.  Within that community, God has blessed us to be a blessings to others.  We begin by sharing our lives with other believers, which overflows to those outside the body of Christl   If we are to carry out the great commission of sharing the gospel within that community,  the best...

Thank you for joining our Youth Pastor Nathan Souza as he shares that God invites us to serve, not because He needs us, but because serving is His design to transform us, build His church, and draw us into His unshakable kingdom. Serving—even in the most ordinary tasks—isn’t about filling a slot; it’s about stepping into our God-given purpose and becoming who we were created to be. More info https...

Growth doesn’t happen without good stress. Muscles require stress to grow stronger. Your mind needs stress—the right kind—to grow more proficient, whether learning a new language, math, or reading comprehension. And if you want to grow as a person, nothing works quite so well as other people. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email ( office@ebc.org ), DM us on Instagram or Face...

To be the people God has called us and created us to be, starts with loving him. But loving God never stops with God. Love for God should inevitably move us to love others.

Have you ever said something and then wished you could take it back? (I’ll spare you from answering… of course you have!) In his letter in the New Testament, the Apostle James writes, “If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man” (James 3:2). Nothing reveals our character and exposes our ignorance more readily than our words. If you want to live wisely, watching your language...

Is work a blessing or a curse? For most of us, work is probably both. We need jobs to pay the bills, but the things we need or want, but… it’s still work. So, we punch the clock, live for the weekend, and dream of retirement.  But for Solomon, our work isn’t just a matter of paying the bills (though it is). It’s our opportunity to grow our character, provide for others, and better the world. More...

People. Can’t live with them; can’t live without them. (No, not even with the best AI has to offer.) Life is all about people. They’re unavoidable and, believe it or not, they’re really the best thing about living. So, learning to get along with them is pretty important if you want to have a fulfilling life.  More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email ( office@ebc.org ), DM us on...

Thank you for joining our guest speaker, Pastor Darren Presnel. One of the ways wisdom reveals itself in the life of a person is in the things we speak to one another.  The wise share wisdom, whereas the fools share folly.  Our words reveal who we are.  Our words have the power to give life to others or to crush them.  How can we become wise with our words?  How can we change so that we become lif...

Nothing shapes our lives more than the decisions we make. But how do we know what to choose? How can we make good decisions while avoiding bad ones? Throughout the book of Proverbs, Solomon offers principles that will help us make the wise choices we need in life.

In the Ancient Near Eastern world, you didn’t just dine with anyone. To each with someone was a sign of respect and friendship, even intimacy.  In Proverbs 9, Solomon describes two invitations, one from wisdom and the other from folly, to enjoy a meal with them. Two invitations, two sets of company, and two very different outcomes for your life. More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755)...

Ever been tempted to cut an ethical corner to get ahead? Doing something you knew you shouldn’t to get what you wanted? The siren song of ill-gotten gain sounds good, but is doomed in the end. Over it, the shout of Wisdom rings out, “Listen up! And I will show you the way to true life."  More info https://www.ebc.org or call (609.267.4755), email ( office@ebc.org ), DM us on Instagram or Facebook,...

How much should I work? Is it wrong to make a lot of money? Who should I marry? How do I raise my kids in a world like this? What about when someone hurts me? What priorities should I have? How do I become better at life?  Life is complicated. Today we live in a world that requires us to navigate new and ever evolving challenges at home, in our families, at work, in our neighborhoods, and beyond....

There’s an evolution that happens for every parent. When you first meet your child, they’re perfect (at least, in your eyes). And then, one day, you discover they’re not nearly as perfect as you want. They talk back, rebel, and make bad decisions, sometimes with serious consequences. But helping our kids mature isn’t a matter of chasing perfection, but of helping them progress one degree at a time...

There are so many decisions, so many questions, so many landmines, that you have to help your child navigate as a parent. School, extra-curricular activities, technology, social media, peer pressure, college, dating, homework, hobbies, friends, culture, siblings, church & faith, schedules, the list goes on and on. Your best option? Prioritize character over control. More info https://www.ebc.org o...

EBC Worship and Recovery Pastor Steve Johansson shares from Psalm 84 that life is full of journeys and pilgrimages...and that we can find our way through them when we grow closer...and stay close to God.

At the conclusion of Exodus, we learn that Moses and the Israelites have completed construction of the Tabernacle. But the Tabernacle’s completion is really just the beginning of the Israelites journey into the wilderness toward the Promised Land.

The Apostle Thomas–“Doubting Thomas”–famously didn’t believe those early reports of Jesus’ resurrection. He had to see Jesus in the flesh before he would believe (just like the other disciples!). Almost two thousand years later, we can’t see Jesus in the flesh, but his challenge and invitation to us remains the same: believe.

Have you ever tried to stop a story from spreading? Maybe it was embarrassing or potentially harmful? But for whatever reason, you wanted to make it go away.  In John’s Gospel, despite the best efforts of the religious leaders to prevent its spread, Lazarus’ resurrection story takes on a life of its own. And as his story spreads throughout the region, more and more people come to see this man, Jes...

“What does this greed and helplessness proclaim, except that there was once within us true happiness of which all that now remains is the outline and empty trace? Man tries unsuccessfully to fill this void with everything that surrounds him, seeking in absent things the help he cannot find in those that are present, but all are incapable of it. This infinite abyss can be filled only with an infini...

What does your home say about you? What story does it tell about who you are, what you value, who and what you love? Your home is a reflection of you, to some degree. In Exodus 25–31, God lays out his architectural plans for the home he wants the Israelites to build for him, called the Tabernacle or Tent of Meeting. And the story depicted in the Tabernacle is of God, bringing heaven to earth, comi...

Have you ever felt like you were set up for failure? In Exodus 24, the Israelites agree to do everything God had commanded them in the Ten Commandments, along with the book of rules that followed (chap. 20–23). But in reality, they would never be able to keep the law perfectly. Thankfully, their future wasn’t riding on their ability to obey, but on the God who sets us up, not to fail, but to disco...
