Thank you for your faithfulness.  We believe God delights to answer the prayers of His people.  As you consider MBC, would you pray regarding the following?

  • The  new school year is fast approaching.  Pray for God to bring the students He desires and to prepare their hearts to be receptive to His truth.
  • The board has decided to build a married student residence building.  We need to raise $300,000 and secure grant funding for another $250,000.  MBC has a no-debt policy and will wait on the Lord to supply this need.
  • Many MBC students are engaged in full-time summer ministries.  Some are counseling at Christian camps, some are overseas in Kenya, Romania, Iraq, etc., and others are engaged in internships.  Pray that God would use the students for his great purposes in the lives of people!

God’s blessing be upon you!

Theology of Death and Suffering
Death. We avoid the discussion around the dinner table. For that matter, the Sunday morning sermon usually steers clear as well. We avoid the subject of death because we have so few answers. Scripture gives a fairly clear picture of the impacts of death but only hints at why God would allow death in the first place. What is God doing with death? Has He lost control? How do we make sense of death in light of the cross?

Crisis Pastoral Care – Staying Loose in the Saddle

Gary & Carol Jimmerson

Saying Goodbye to Our Son
Gary and Carol have had the pleasure of raising four children, two adopted, and two biological. In 1983, the Lord took their oldest son, Ryan, home through a ranching accident. Ryan was a 7 year old who loved the Lord with all his heart.. The family relied on God’s love and strength. There were difficult days in the healing process, but their dependence on the Lord and the support of their Christian friends and pastor helped them through. 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 has become very real in the Jimmerson’s lives. Since the loss of their son, God has allowed Gary and Carol to minister to other families that have lost children.

Shepherding for the Eventuality
Shepherding for the Eventuality
Let’s face it – we’re all going to die. And when we go, we can leave a burden or a blessing to those we leave behind. Jim has years of experience helping people prepare with practical planning, including such areas as finances, record-keeping, insurance, estate options, and burial plots. He can help us personally and in our shepherding roles.

The Unthinkable Just Happened – Suicide, Murder, and Traumatic Loss
As Gallatin County chaplain for 20 years, our shepherding nightmares are Warren’s reality. When we’re blind-sided by these situations there are things we need to know. What are these people feeling? How are they attempting to cope? What are the police trying to accomplish? What happens when the reporters show up? How can the church minister here according to knowledge?
