First Baptist Church, Zeeland: Recent Episodes
First Baptist Church, Zeeland
We desire to know Christ and to make Him known. To that end, we provide these teachings for your personal growth and edification.
What does it mean to honor your father and mother in every season of life? In this message from Exodus 20:12, we explore the fifth commandment as a bridge between loving God and loving others—beginning at home. Honor is more than obedience; it is an attitude shaped by God’s grace, marked by respect, care, listening, responsibility, and humility. From childhood to adulthood and the care of aging parents, discover practical wisdom for living out this command.
This teaching explores Exodus 20.8-11 and the gift of Shabbat as more than a rule to follow--it is an invitation to rest, trust, and remember God's faithfulness. In a world ruled by urgency, hustle, and self-provision, Shabbat interrupts our striving and points us back to the sufficiency of Messiah, the goodness of God, an the identity we have in Him.Together we examine the meaning of Shabbat, its purpose int he life of Israel, and how believers today can approach Shabbat with wisdom, liberty, and grace. We consider how rest shapes our sould, renews our dependence on God and helps us offer that to others.
In this message on Exodus 20.7, we explore what it means to bear God's name in the world. Taking God's name is more than avoiding a curse word--it's about representing His character, reputation, and holiness in everything we say and do. From our words and promises to our motives, worship, and daily conduct, this sermon calls us to live with integrity so that our lives reflect the God we claim to know. As we walk with God, the Holy Spirit produces spiritual fruit in our lives, making our love for our neighbor a tangible reality.
In this second sermon in our Ten Words series, Pastor Jay looks at how we are prone to idolatry which replaces God in our lives with something lesser. Using the story of the golden calf, we explore how to place God first in our lives.
whom we might be serving today and to faithful walk in relationship with the One True God.
Egypt was a scary place for Joseph's family. Yet, God led Jacob and sons there in order to preserve them and help them flourish. This teaching reminds us again that God's plan can be trusted for our lives.
Jacob's life is coming to a close, yet the words of faith he shares with his family are powerful. He learned by living that God was his Shepherd. God was in control even when life felt out of control. He can be trusted to keep His promise of blessing and therefore, we can trust Him too.
We are nearing the end of Joseph's story. Tension is building. Will Joseph and his family reunite? Will there be forgiveness? Will they reconcile?Join us as we learn about reconciliation and how God calls and equips us to be reconcilers in our lives today.
Guilt. It is a powerful emotion that can be used to help us deal with sin biblically OR keep us from living the new life that Jesus offers to us. Join us as we study this from the story of Joseph.For more information about our church and getting connected, visit www.fbczeeland.org.
Trusting that God is working is hard, especially when the days turn into weeks, months, and years. But God's timing is designed to build trust and faithfulness in His people. Today we learn this lesson from the life of Joseph.
Where is God in our moments of greatest temptation? He is with us. Today we learn from the life of Joseph how God walks with and empowers His people for service. We also learn what it means to walk with God as we face trials and temptations.
Sin rarely stems from one decision but from multiple choices made over the course of time. Together, we look at how Joseph goes from being the favored son to a slave and this affects each part of his family.
What makes a person? As we begin our study on the life of Joseph, this first teaching looks at his past--broken and messy--and sees God's grace at the center of Joseph's story.
In this message, Pastor Jay looks at 6 kinds of fruit that we bear as we learn to abide in Jesus.
This week’s message is a commissioning service for Pastor Jay Weber, where we publicly sets him apart for the calling God has given him as our youth pastor. Together we are reminded that pastoral ministry is not just a job but a sacred calling marked by sacrifice, accountability, and the need for the Holy Spirit’s power. The sermon closes with Paul’s charge to Timothy, calling Jay to preach the Word, endure hardship, and fulfill his ministry with faithfulness.
In this episode, we explore what Jesus meant when He said, “I am the true vine,” and why real life and lasting fruit can only come from staying connected to Him. We unpack the difference between God’s discipline and His pruning—both can be painful, but one corrects while the other grows us—and how our response shapes our spiritual journey. Along the way, we’ll see how abiding in Christ transforms us as He leads, loves, and equips us to live with deeper joy and purpose.
What do you do when you world completely falls apart? This week we're diving into one of Jesus' moost astonishing miracles--raising Lazarus back to life--and discovering howit foreshadows the eternal, abundant life He offer through salvation.
What kind of disciple are you?In John 15, Jesus paints a beautiful picture of what God truly desires for His followers.He calls us to be fruitful — lives that reflect His love, character, and power in real, visible ways.And He invites us to be dependent — staying deeply connected to Him like branches to the vine, relying on His strength, wisdom, and provision in every area of life.The question is simple, yet profound:What kind of disciple are you?Are you staying close to the Vine… or trying to produce fruit on your own?
Everyone has a relationship to Jesus; but not everyone has a relationship with Jesus. In this Palm Sunday message, we look at how people engaged with Jesus and ask ourselves the question: what is my relationship with Jesus?
Following Jesus. That's the call and joy of the Believer. In this last message in the Upper Room Lesson Series, we look at the final words Jesus shares before He and His disciples leave the upper room.
Who is the Holy Spirit and what does He do in our lives? Following John 14, we learn five ways the Holy Spirit works in our lives for God's glory.
Today we look at how Jesus is one with the Father. Join us as we feebly attempt to understand the infinte, almighty, and triune God.
In this next teaching, we look at the selfless love Jesus models and calls us to live by His grace.
Jesus is coming back! These words provided hope to a group of disciples being prepared for His soon coming death and they give us hope today as we await His return.

Today we look at the Jewish concept of the home being a "miniature temple" where God is worshiped in our daily lives. Together, we are challenged to live according to God's design and to lift one another up as we seek to follow Jesus.
In this teaching, we look at God's design for marriage and how followers of Jesus can seek to live that out by God's grace.

"The Lord is calling our beloved Senior Pastor, Clint Echols, to a new ministry with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Although the Elders are sad to see Pastor Clint go, we are excited to see him being obedient to God’s call on his life. We stand behind him 100% in his decision to pursue that call. We agree that his new ministry matches Pastor Clint’s giftedness in evangelism and discipleship, his passion for sports, and his love for young people.
We praise God for Pastor Clint’s nearly ten years of ministry here at First Baptist Church. We rejoice with Pastor Clint and his family that God continues to lead them, even though that leading may bring a measure of sorrow caused by their absence from our fellowship. Please take advantage of opportunities in the coming months to encourage Pastor Clint and his family as they take this bold new step of faith."
