Merry Christmas!

As we enter this Christmas season, I can’t help but pause and look back with gratitude for all God has done this year. He’s been so faithful—guiding, providing, and moving in ways only He can.

Our upcoming series, Behold the King, reminds us that Christmas is more than a story—it’s an invitation to worship. The Son of God stepped into our world, wrapped not in glory but in humility, to bring hope and redemption. When we truly behold Him, our hearts can’t help but respond with worship, wonder, and generosity.

For decades, the people who call Bible Center home have lived with open hands—investing in others, supporting ministry, and giving so the gospel might reach more people. This year’s December Offering is another opportunity to allow the King to shape your heart toward generosity. As we respond in worship through giving, it fuels the mission— helping us share the hope of Jesus here in our community, across our state, and around the world.

As you reflect on God’s greatest gift—His Son—I invite you to pray and ask, “Lord, how are You calling me to respond?” Together, let’s continue to join Him in His work and trust that the best chapters of His story through Bible Center are still to come.

Exceedingly grateful for you,

John King
Lead Pastor

Each December, nearly 25% of our annual giving is received. Your generosity fuels family ministries, care, local and global outreach, weekend services, ministry through the Maker’s Center, and more. These efforts to lead others to Christ both here and around the world are made possible by people like you who love Jesus and His Church. Meeting this year’s December Offering goal will strengthen our impact as we focus on key objectives of Vision 25/26: A Year of Gospel Movement.

Would you pray about what God would have you give to the December offering this year?

2025 contributions must be received or postmarked by December 31. If you have questions about other tax-free giving opportunities, contact Tiffany Moore, Controller, at (304) 346-0431.

Your Generosity Changes Lives

Each Christmas season, we set aside a special December Offering—a time to give above and beyond our regular giving as we celebrate the birth of Jesus. For Bible Center, this offering is more than just financial support…it’s a spiritual moment.

Why? Because about 25% of all we receive each year comes in during this season. Your generosity at the end of the year fuels ministry all year long. Together, we can invest in what matters most: helping people connect with Christ, grow in their faith, and multiply the gospel in our valley and beyond.

From weekly ministries to special initiatives, your generosity changes lives both here and around the world. Additionally, meeting this year’s December Offering goal will strengthen our impact as we focus on three key objectives of Vision 25/26: A Year Gospel Movement.

Your gift today fuels ministry tomorrow.

Nearly 25% of our annual budget is received in December.

Because you give, we are able to:

  • Share the hope of Jesus through Outreach, Counseling, and Global Partnerships ($595K);
  • Strengthen our worship environments with key improvements like new auditorium lighting ($40K); and
