Vision Statement of EBCB

The chief purpose of man is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. When a person commits his life to the pursuit of this goal, he is fulfilled and his life is in harmony with his Creator and with other people. Therefore, Eastbay Baptist Church of Berkeley (EBCB) is committed to helping people achieve this grand purpose. The believer must demonstrate an effort to please God, who not only gave him life, but eternal life through the sacrifice of His own Son. The believer's reward for a God-honoring life will be the greatest prize in the universe--God Himself. To this end, EBCB aims to build a God-honoring community of worshippers who will exemplify a Christ-like lifestyle and be able to teach and reproduce viable Christians.
