Prayer was vital for God's people in the Old Testament, vital in the early church of the New Testament, and prayer must be vital in the life of BVBC. The hope is that our prayers would become more focused on God's mission. We see in John 15:16 that God answers prayers for bearing fruit in our service to him. This sermon addresses the epidemic of addiction, especially in Delaware. Individuals with Delmarva Adult and Teen Challenge share how their programs introduce Jesus to those enslaved by addiction, resulting in disciples of Christ whose freedom is restored with new life in Him.
February is Missions Month at BVBC. Our focus this month is on the vital role of intercessory prayer in the work of missions through the local and global church. Each week in February, we will study a missional prayer and have a dedicated time of prayer in the service using that week's prayer as a guide.
Pastor Nate Keeler addresses The Giant of Addiction. One of the most tragic ways people avoid pain, seek satisfaction and cope with life is through addiction to “functional gods” like substances, pornography, technology and even shopping. While we use these addictions to cope, they cannot deliver what they promise. Their pathway leads to further shame, spiritual and emotional disconnection, and destruction. But there is hope for those struggling with addiction through a relationship with Christ, the power of the Holy Spirit and support in the body of Christ. The sermon context is from Romans 6:11-14.

#church #giants #addiction
Whether we like it or not, the pandemic has brought to the surface the giants of fear, family dynamics, anxiety and depression, grief, addiction and a variety of mental illnesses. Most of us have either personally experienced these giants or have loved ones who are struggling. We are a broken people living in a broken world in search of hope. In this sermon series we will come face-to-face with our giants, bust myths about their power and our isolation, and learn to increasingly look to Christ for our ultimate victory.
