Good afternoon faithful BBT members. We had a great service last week. It was good to see Kay, Annette, and Richard again. Also we had Mary who was visiting for the first time. She lives in Brentwood and wants to start coming every week. Pris gave a emotional lesson on how we such treat each other and the sermon was entitled how to have a successful life. I believe God has a plan for each and every one of us and he wants us to be successful in every thing we do. We just need to do our part.
This week I want to talked to us about 2ND chances. The scripture versus are found in Philmon the 1st chapter. Take time this week and read the book of Philmon, it wont take you over 30 minuets but it has a terrific story about Paul writing to his good friend Philmon and a man named Onesimus. I think there is really a great lesson for us in these Scripture.
Homecoming is right around the corner and I am so excited about celebrating our 52 year at BBT. Jay Gibson will bring the message and I believe Jerry Gibson may even sing that week as well. I hope all of your are making plans to be there on the 12Th but I also hope you will be at church this week as we celebrate another great week our Lord has given us. Be sure and check the Prayer room for our prayer request and there is not a recodered message this week as Larry and Linda were out of town last week. We love you and cant wait to see you again. Keep doing good things and we will see you on Sunday

Hello faith followers of BBT. We had a great service last week and I am looking for another great service this week. Larry did an awesome job on speaking to us about learning a joyous life and Pris did a great job in teaching our School School. Church is diffrent every week and I love it.
This week I am going to me going about the road to success. The scripture is founded in Hebrews the 13:1-8. I believe we can all be successful if we follow the right formula and I believe it is found in these versus.
I am looking forward to see all of you on Church on Sunday. Lets make this a weekly thing. Keep praying for those that need our help and keep doing good things. We will see you on Sunday. We Love you.

Message for August 22 - The Choice To Rejoice
Again I want to thank Pastor David for the opportunity to share with you. It was good to see so many at church last Sunday. I hope you'll all be back and bring some more with you. That's what we're supposed to be about. I think the Lord must be trying to tell us something since He gave me this message a week before Pastor David preached on a similar theme. Philippians 4:4 says, "Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!" If the Lord, through Paul's letter, is telling us to rejoice, then it must be something we can choose to do. Remember what we learned about the importance of things that get repeated in the Bible. Paul obviously considered this important because he said it twice. This Sunday we will look at what joy is, why we should rejoice, and some practical things to help us do it. I call them the four R's of rejoicing. It will bring me great joy to see you there!

Good afternoon blessed followers of BBT. I hope you had a great week and are looking forward to a great weekend. We had very few in Church on Sunday but the ones that were there I hope you received something from the fellowship together. I hope we will have a good group this week but one person that never fails to show up is the Holy Spirit. Come meet him this week at BBT.
This week leasson is about learning to have fun as a Christians. Those two words are usually not used together but I am telling you they should be. Jesus set an example and even though there is a lot to be done, we can have a great time doing it. The scripture lesson for this week, and I promise this is right, is Matthew 11 chapter vs 28. We had this same scripture last week in Sunday School and it really fits with the message for this week. I hope you will read this versus and be here on Sunday to talk about it. Priscilla will be teaching Sunday School again so I hope you will make plans to join us on Sunday.
Please remember the prayer request spoken last week and make them a part of your daily prayers. I am so proud of what we are accomplishing at this church and I am proud we are all part of it. Relax this week have some fun, do good things and show people what it really means to be a Christian. We will see you on Sunday. We love you.

What a terrific time we had last week. Many of Larry's family and friends were at the Ordination service for Larry. We celebrated a great time with Larry and Linda as Larry became the first ordained minister sponsored by Bartimaeus Baptist Temple. It was exciting and the fellowship afterwards was great as well. Larry will be serving as the Associate pastor for Bartimaeus and will be preaching at least once a month. I encourage all of you to support Larry and Linda as you support me and Pris.
I am going to preach the sermon I was going to preach two weeks ago when I was unable to be at church. It is found in Luke the 11Th Chapter vs 1-13. These versus should remind us what a great responsibility we have as Christians and how important it is to have our priorities in order. I hope to have as many in Church this week as we did last week. That means we will need EVERYBODY there because we wont have Larry's family to help fill the church this week.
I pray that you will have a great week this week and that you will make the most out of every opportunity you are given. Keep working hard, keep loving your family and friends and keep do good things for God. Remember the prayer requests that are listed in the prayer room and if you need to speak to someone call me are Larry and let us pray with you. May god bless you and keep you safe and we will see you on Sunday, same time and the same place.
Pastor David & Pris
