March 17, 2024 | Mark 14:26-31 | Hostage  The Christian Life is often referred to as a race. In any race there is a beginning, a middle, and an end. We can start off running the race well, but people won’t remember you for starting off well. They remember you for consistently running and Finishing Strong.  Do you know JESUS? ⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

March 17, 2024 | John 4:1-6 | Hostage | Gilmer Campus Through our technology we are more connected than we’ve ever been, but we are more isolated and lonely than ever. You are not alone in feeling alone. Loneliness is a Spiritual Battle against the enemies tactic to keep up isolated and disconnected from the life that Jesus wants us to experience in Him and with one another. God did not create us to be alone. He wants us to find connection in community and with Him!  Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠ Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠ SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

February 11, 2024 | Ephesians 5:25-30 | Spirit Filled Family  Jesus wants to be present, glorified, and displayed in our marriage. We must acknowledge that Male Headship within marriage is from the Bible. Headship is not about authority or dominance. Biblical Headship is a work of the Holy Spirit, empowering a husband to imitate Jesus by leading his family with a sacrificing, sanctifying and sustaining love, restoring God’s created order.  Do you know JESUS? ⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠ Need PRAYER? ⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠ Support through GIVING: ⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

January 28, 2024 | Ephesians 5:18-21 | Spirit Filled Family The Christian Life is difficult…and it is played out in three primary realms: in family, at work, and in the church. In this sermon we want to answer three primary questions: what is the Spirit-filled life? What is the evidence of the Spirit-filled life?

January 21, 2024 | Mark 5:21- | Longview Campus What if you were all alone? What if you felt completely alone like you had no one to turn to?  In Mark 5, the woman with the problem of blood was totally alone. She was an outcast, rejected completely by jewish society. But she knew that with Jesus she had a chance of change. And a small change of something from Jesus was better than the large chance of nothing. 

January 14, 2024 | Acts 4:23-31 | Longview Campus This year is going to hold many challenges for our nation. But we’ve seen God do far more in the past few years than we could have ever imagined. Why? Like the early church, we have decided to become a House of Prayer.  How would our year look if we prayed like we’ve never prayed before? What if we wanted to prioritize His presence before anything else?

January 14, 2024 | 2 Chronicles 20 | Gilmer Campus  Are we as a church becoming what God wants His church to become? Are we a house of prayer? Your good deeds don’t compare to you going into the presence of the Lord. Because something uniquely powerful happen when we pray. God promises: You will seek Me and you will find Me if you seek me with all your heart.
