Welcome to East Brentwood Presbyterian Church

Sundays at 10:00 a.m. Onsite or virtual (via Facebook/ You Tube)

July 6, 2025, Sunday at 10:00 a.m.

In person and Livestreaming on Facebook and on our YouTube Channel. To give to the ministry of the church: Ways to Give.  

One day Jesus was teaching (Luke 6:27-31) he said to pray for those you least want to. And we want to say: “you have to be kidding me.” This Sunday Pastor John will explore what this teaching of Jesus might mean and what it doesn’t mean as we continue the series “Lord, Teach Us To Pray.” 


Community service & mission outreach are our passions.

“I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.”
—Jeremiah 1:8

Take Me to the Water

We are living through a time when all the stories the larger culture tells us about ourselves are being rewritten: the story of what the United States is; what it means to be a man or a woman; what it means to be a child; what it means to love oneself or other people. And what it means to be the church. Some say the church is being dismantled; others say the church is aging out, no longer relevant. Regardless of our assessment of the church, we are all looking for what can be a comfort and a guide. In this episode Pastor John touches upon what is core to the church while acknowledging its pitfalls and of the Spirit of God that names our true identity and addresses our spiritual hunger. That has us going to the water’s edge as we follow Jesus to the Jordan River (Mark 1). This episode features a medley of river-based themes (“River to Pray”) and “Into the Jordan” (Briana Tyson, vocalist).
