    13. Knowing Him - Responding To The Cross - Video
    Apr 3 2026
    This Easter weekend, we step into the tension of a story we all know—but often don’t fully feel. At Christmas, we celebrated “With Us”— Emmanuel! God drawing near in Jesus. But on Good Friday, everything shifts. In John 18–19, we walk through the betrayal, trial, and crucifixion of Jesus and see a wide range of responses: rejection, fear, indifference, and even quiet faith. What happens when the One who was with us is suddenly taken away? For three days, it seems like hope is gone—like everything is now without Him. But the story doesn’t end there. In John 20, we encounter the resurrection—and once again, we see different responses: confusion, doubt, awe, and belief. The empty tomb forces a question each of us must answer: What will I do with the risen Jesus? Easter moves us from without to with Him, inviting us not just to observe the story, but to step into it personally by realizing the joy of our relationship with Jesus! We’d love for you to join us for Good Friday and Easter as we explore these powerful moments together. And don’t come alone—this is the kind of weekend that people will come with you. Invite a friend, a neighbor, or a family member to experience the hope, the tension, and the joy of Jesus with you. -Pastor Ben Key Verse - John 19:30 (NIV) - "When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit."

    12. Knowing Him - Triumphal Entry - Video
    Mar 29 2026
    This Sunday, we step into one of the most powerful and tension-filled moments in the life of Jesus—the Triumphal Entry. As news spreads that He has raised Lazarus from the dead, the crowds begin to swell with awe and expectation… while opposition quietly intensifies with deadly intent. Some are ready to crown Him as King, others are determined to see Him crucified. In this moment, one truth becomes unmistakably clear: there is no neutral ground when it comes to Jesus. Join us as we walk through John 12 and wrestle with the question—who do you say He is? From Mary’s humble act of worship as she anoints Jesus for burial, to the growing plot against His life, to His tearful and triumphant entry into Jerusalem, we’ll see Jesus as the Anointed One, the Dangerous One, and the Glorified One. Even as the crowd shouts His praises, the shadow of the cross looms—and Jesus remains fully surrendered to the Father’s will, declaring that everything ahead will bring glory to God. Come and discover the kind of King Jesus truly is—and why following Him will always require a response. - Pastor Ben Key Verse - John 12:13 (NIV) - They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, “Hosanna! ” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the king of Israel!"

    11. Knowing Him - The Good Shepherd - Video
    Mar 22 2026
    This weekend, we’re diving into what it really means to know Jesus as the Good Shepherd. In John 10, Jesus draws a powerful contrast between false leaders who use and burden people—and Himself as the One who leads, protects, and gives life. He doesn’t trap people in religion… He is the Gate to freedom, the Shepherd who calls His sheep by name, and the One who leads them into something better. But Jesus doesn’t stop there—He makes a bold claim: “I and the Father are one.” He’s not just a teacher or a good example—He is the Son of God. And that leaves us with a question we all have to answer: whose voice are we listening to? Come join us this weekend as we explore what it looks like to hear His voice, follow Him, and experience the abundant life He offers. You’re invited—we’d love to have you with us. - Pastor Ben Key Verse - John 10:14 (NIV) - “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me—" For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49567373

    Philippians begins with an incredible expression of thankfulness from Paul and Timothy. Philippians 1:3–6 “I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this: that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Paul and Timothy are filled with gratitude because of the Philippian believers’ partnership in the gospel. Their support and faithfulness encouraged them and sustained them throughout their ministry and travels. What a reason for joy—to know that you are united with other believers who are praying for you and caring for you out of the blessings God has given them! As a church, how are we doing in partnering together for the mission? Do we pray for one another? Do we care for and support each other? I know we do these things—but I also believe we have even greater opportunities ahead of us to grow in these ways and glorify Christ together. This weekend, we’re excited to explore what it means to partner in the mission of the gospel at MBC as we continue to grow in Christ and move forward for His glory. Join us this Sunday at 8:00 AM or 11:00 AM as we worship together as the body of Christ at Mitchell Berean Church! - Pastor Ben For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49567368
