Deacon Selection
Eastside Baptist is in the process of selecting more deacons. Here is a series of Sunday night sermons on deacons I did several weeks ago to prepare us for this process. If you have not listened to these sermons, please do so as you are praying, before you select new deacons.

Why I Watched “Unplanned”
