Thank you to all the musicians and technical folks who helped serve and make our Christmas Season of Worship Ministry special! We currently have opportunities in our technical ministry for you! If you are interested in operating a camera, or mixing sound, or working in our presentation software, talk to Pastor Steve for more information: [email protected] Eastview is currently undergoing some fine tuning of our services online. You can catch up / bookmark our new host on Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/user59134391 Finally… for the new year - a thought from the apostle Paul to the Philippians ... Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

HAPPENINGS
Far too often we hear people share that they know someone who says they are following Christ, but their choice of lifestyle is stained with bad habits and practices. Not only does it affect loving relationships…it literally destroys the witness of Christ when the light that is within us is shining through a broken window. Jesus said that He is the true light, and we are only reflectors of the light. In order for others to see the light we are called to live out our faith in such a way that others will see the glory of God. Join us as we journey through an ancient passage that has become known as the greatest ‘Sermon on the Mount’. “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16, ESV) January 1, 2017 - Light Seasoning Matt 5:13-20; Gal 6.9-10; Col 1.9-10 January 8, 2017 - Disarm Anger Math 5:21-26; Gen 4.4-5; Eph 4.31-32 January 15, 2017 - Lust or Love Matt 5.27-30; Rom 1.21-27; 1 Thes 4.1-8 January 22, 2017 - Fireproof your Marriage Matt 5.31-32; Heb 13.1-6; Col 2.13-15 January 29, 2017 - Truth Teller Matt 5.33-37; 2 Co 1.18-20; 2 Peter 1.1-4 February 5, 2017 - Retaliation Cancelled Matt 5.38-41; Rom 12.17-21; Gen 34.1-31; 1 Sam 24 February 12, 2017 - Boundless Love Matt 5.43-48; Deut 6.1-25; 1 Sam 20.1-42
