Dr. Kelly Burris is preaching through a series on "Living the Blessed Life". In this series, we will focus on the essentials of the Christian life. We hope that you will be challenged and encouraged through the preaching of God's Word. We pray these sermons would not only encourage and challenge you, but also convict you to grow closer to the Lord Jesus. Also, be sure to check out past sermons you've missed or would like to hear again on the Sermons page.

We encourage you to connect with us through our social media options, as well as viewing our Sunday morning services here on our website. Remember these words from Paul:
"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7 |

Coronavirus Updates
At KBC we place a high priority on gathering together to worship and partner with God in changing lives. We want everyone to feel welcome during worship, Bible Studies, and other activities, but we are aware of some of the concerns that surround COVID-19. At this time KBC Pastors and staff have adopted some precautions and recommendations regarding the virus.
HOW DO WE MAKE SENSE OF THE CORONAVIRUS (OR ANY OTHER SICKNESS)?
In situations like this, it's very easy to lose faith and to live in fear of the headlines and the unknowns. We must remember and live with the confidence that Jesus has all knowledge and all authority over the natural and supernatural forces of this world. He knows exactly where the virus started, and where it's going next. He has complete power to restrain it or not. And that what's happening. Neither sin, nor Satan, nor sickness, nor sabotage is stronger than Jesus. He’s never backed into a corner; he is never forced to tolerate what he does not will. “The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations” (Psalm 33:11). We recommend you listen to this short 16 minute podcast from Desiring God Ministries on how to think Biblically and respond with compassion to our neighbors and the nations regarding this global health concern. https://www.desiringgod.org/interviews/how-do-we-make-sense-of-the-coronavirus
WHAT PRECAUTIONS CAN I TAKE?
Naturally, we value worshipping with you, however if you are feeling sick or running a fever, the best way to worship with the KBC Family is through our recorded sermons online. You can access our sermons on the church website (Sermons). If you are healthy, do not use this as an excuse to stay in your jammies and worship from your couch! Trust Jesus for your moment by moment and gather with the body of Christ. KBC has soap and water at our gatherings for you to wash your hands.
We encourage everyone to take certain steps to protect themselves and others from the coronavirus, flu, and other illnesses, including:
WHAT PRECAUTION IS KBC TAKING?
KBC is taking extra cleaning precautions at this time, including wiping down all common area touchpoints (e.g., doors, light switches, stair railings, tables, etc.) throughout the week with a certified disinfectant, and placing hand sanitizers in common areas throughout the buildings.
In all of our KidsCove (preschool and elementary) classrooms, our leaders sterilize various surfaces used by our children. We are implementing new health protocols by not admitting any child with an elevated temperature (above 99.6 F). A child must also be fever free for 24 hours before coming to any KidsCove class.
During our worship gatherings, we continue to share in a weekly greeting, but encourage replacing handshakes with fist or elbow bumps. For the next few weeks, we will collect our tithes and offerings at the end of the service by having collection buckets located at the entrances of the Sanctuary to drop your tithes and offerings into. Additional precautions will be taken as necessary for the observation of ordinances like Lord’s Supper and Baptism.
WHAT ABOUT OUR EVENTS AND MISSIONS TRIPS?
KBC is canceling all services, events, and trips until further notice.
Considering the nature of the Damascus Missions Trip being a senior adult trip, we have decided to cancel the trip this year.
We will continue to move forward with the Belize Missions Trip but will remain attentive to travel restrictions and health updates as we move along.
We trust the Lord and His timing in all of this. Cancelling events and trips is in no way a retreat of partnering with God in reaching our community and the world nor a fear of a virus or a fear of man's reaction to the threat of a virus. We are trusting God's sovereignty and ask that you pray for people who have been impacted by the virus, missionaries who live in countries where they have been confined to their homes, and people who are afraid, that they would trust the living God who is the Great Healer and Divine Planner. This is not the time to retreat in our praying and giving, but a time to increase our praying and our giving, so that when restrictions are lifted, we will be ready to be carriers of the gospel and encouragers in person. In the meantime, we will be carriers of the gospel in prayer and encouragers in other mediums.
WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW?
The coronavirus is yet one more reminder that we live in a fallen world of sickness, sin, suffering, and death. Ultimately, none of us are immune to any of these things. But that’s why the gospel is such good news. God has not left us alone in this world of sickness, sin, suffering, and death. He has come to us in the person of Jesus. The greatest news in all the world is that Jesus lived a life with no sin, died on a cross to pay the price for our sin, and rose from the grave in victory over sin and death. Now anyone anywhere who turns from their sin and trusts in Jesus will be forgiven of all their sin and restored to relationship with God forever. That means that through Jesus, we never have to fear sickness or death because we know we have eternal life with God.
If you do not know that you have eternal life with God, we urge you to put your faith in Jesus Christ. If you need prayer or would like someone to share more with you, please call the church office (757-499-5457).
If you do know that you have eternal life with God, we urge you to share the hope and peace of Jesus with others. Find practical ways to help serve and care for those in need, and continue to pray.

PICTURE DAY

Began ministry at KBC in August, 2013
Family: Wife — Sarah of 4 years 1 Son — Grayson, born 9/11/16 Hometown: Virginia Beach, VA College Education: Liberty University Missions Experience: USA: Newport News, VA, Virginia Beach, VA, Lynchburg, VA, Charleston, SC, Atlanta, GA WORLD: Mexico, Costa Rica My First Job: Umpiring baseball for the Eastern Virginia Officials Association Likes to: do anything outdoors, really!…Surfing, camping, hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, etc. Playing games, Duke Basketball, Atlanta Braves, Washington Redskins. I also am a huge Star Wars fan. Favorite Verses: Psalm 3:3-5 Favorite Person in the Bible (Other than Jesus): I love the story of John Mark. This is a guy who was very close to the disciples, and was also the nephew of Barnabas. He traveled with Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey, but returned home to Jerusalem unexpectedly. I mean this is a guy who was known as a complete failure and disappointment, as Paul was so upset that he did not let Mark come back to travel with him some more. God then raised up John Mark to write the Gospel of Mark. Even in Paul’s last letter to Timothy, he advises Timothy to go and get Mark and use him for his ministry, because he was so helpful for Paul’s. This is an awesome example of how God can bring up someone who is a complete failure and disappointment, and use him or her for His good. We never know who God can use ultimately for His perfect and mighty purpose. |
MALAWI MISSIONSFrank and Jynn Albano went to Malawi in May. Details of their trip will be posted here soon.
