Sundays October 11th & 18th at 11am in the Great Room
Our next membership class at MBC will be taking place on Sunday October 11th & Sunday October 18th. This will be a 2-part membership class at the 11am hour in the Great Room at MBC. We hope you can join us and register through the button below.
The Book of Ezekiel (a priest who became a prophet) takes place while Israel is in exile (ca 593 BC–573 BC) because of the discipline given by God for the idolatry and covenant failure of his people to properly represent His name. Ezekiel, whose most common name for himself in the book is “son of man,” (“Son of man, eat this scroll…”, Ezek 3:3), witnessed the majestic glory of God (Ezek 1) which had tragically departed from the compromised Jerusalem temple (Ezek 10), but yet surprisingly followed his people to be with them in a foreign land, revealing that God is not confined to a building, city or nation. Using graphic and vivid word pictures, dramatic reenactments and prophetic street theater, God called Ezekiel to announce both the bad news message of God’s judgment and the good news message of God’s salvation.

Who Should Attend
I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

Fathers and sons!
We’re excited to be relaunching our Men’s Ministry Breakfast time on June 3rd. Come hear from our panel of Mentors from our Radical Mentoring Ministry.
Radical Mentoring is a special type of men’s small group made up of high-potential young men facilitated by more senior and mature men. The vision is to help younger men live God-centered lives and fulfill their God-given potential.
The mentors will endeavor to share what they have learned about success and failure. Most importantly, they will share what it means to have a vibrant, living relationship with Jesus along the way.
Join us for breakfast and a meaningful time of sharing. For more information contact Craig McLaughlin or Pete Lima or call the church office at 908-647-0594.
What is Christianity Explored?
A relaxed and informal way of sharing the best news you can ever hear, and gives people space and time to think about the big questions of life.
What’s each session about?
Over seven sessions, guests will read Mark’s Gospel to find out more about the life of the person at the heart of the Christian faith – Jesus Christ. The structure of each session is simple: a short Bible study, a talk (you can give your own using our talk outlines or use our films) and a discussion based on the talk.
Can we know God?
Seven sessions looking at Jesus’s life in Mark’s gospel, meeting the man who claimed to be God and discovering how he changed history.
