Jesus said,
"Ye must be born again."
and,
you must. 
Really.
 
You must be born again.
Do you believe Jesus died for your sins?
Do you believe God raised Him 
 from the dead?
Confess with your mouth.
Believe in your heart.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
================================================
 Obadiah    KJV
:11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem,
even thou wast as one of them. 
[if you don't stand against it,
you're for it.]
 
:12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy broher in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
 
:13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;
 
:14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress.
 
:15 For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen:
as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee:
 thy reward shall return upon thine own head.

Do You Need  A Church Home?
When you come to Eastside...here in Fort Worth/ Haltom City ....
you need to
remember a couple of things:
1. Think about this : We are not here for you to  test us.
2. Think on this  :  You don't come for us to test you.
We are here to serve and worship together with you...this is the Lord's house and you are welcome anytime...
We have a mutual Friend...His Name is Jesus...If you're a Christian we have in common the common-salvation found only in Him...If you're not a Christian you find in Him a Friend Who has given His Life that you might have life...no matter where you are or where you've been ... He is here for you! 
So, why not worship here?...there will be a friendly handshake and a smile...
you'll find a bunch of "perfect" people...NO...JUST KIDDING...we are only complete in Jesus...there is no perfect man or woman or child...there is no perfect preacher...no perfect teacher...no perfect person...
only Jesus! 
 
 
 Your Pastor...
         ...Your Church

Children Learn What They Live
If a child lives with criticism,
He learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility,
He learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule,
He learns to be shy.
If a child lives with shame,
He learns to feel guilty.
If a child lives with tolerance,
He learns to be patient.
If a child lives with encouragement,
He learns confidence.
If a child lives with praise,
He learns to appreciate.
If a child lives with fairness,
He learns justice.
If a child lives with security,
He learns to have faith.
If a child lives with approval,
He learns to  like himself.
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
He learns to find love in the world.

One of the key ministries of the church is the singing school we hold each year, the last two weeks of June.
In our singing school, it was a privilege to have Bill Ham as he taught guitar lessons to 3 young guys.
 
You may have heard that we are not a traditional church.
Why not come see for yourself?
 
We love Jesus and are not ashamed to say so.
We sing Gospel Music.
Everyone gets to participate.
 
We preach from the Bible....KJV
We have a special Prayer Time, regularly...
 
 
 
 
 
We have a singing school every summer and here's a picture of some of our students this year with Emma Lee in red at front.
 
 
We are an independent Baptist church. 
We fellowship with all  kinds of christians
but do not compromise our beliefs.
If there is any question as to what we believe,
feel free to email us on the "Contact Us" page.

Sitting to left in the picture above is Caleb Turk.  The Turk family members are missionaries to Indonesia and lifetime friends of the Tosh Family.  He is the son of Missionary Dr. Louis A. Turk and wife Cheryl.  The Turks were with us for our Anniversary Sunday.  Caleb and his sister, Prisca, attended our summer school of Gospel music a few years ago.  They were a tremendous blessing to everyone they met.
 
THE picture below is this year's picture of Caleb Turk and his wife in Indonesia using the music he  learned at our school in their mission ministry there.  Caleb directs music for his father, Dr. Louis A. Turk.
    We are very proud of Caleb ... 
             See what God can do? 
                     By the way, they have a new baby, Faith Turk !
 
Why music? 
When a person is "down and out"...Music, Gospel Music, speaks to the soul of everybody...
Music can reach you when nothing else can...
and have you ever noticed how it just sort of "sneaks up on you"? 
Why music? 
When you get in your car...
there's music...
                                                       it should be Gospel Music!
