This Sunday: Guest Speaker Alex Giannetti
Join us Sunday at 10am to receive a word from Guest Speaker: Alex Giannetti
Following Jesus Means Giving Up Some Things.
We talk about following Jesus a lot, but what does that actually mean? What does Jesus require of His followers? Learn what Jesus asks His followers to give up as Justin Cady brings the Word of God to us!
Distracted Much? (Guest Speaker Matt Koll!)
We are more plugged in and more out of touch than ever. And even good things can distract us from the most important thing.
Join us as Matt Koll brings the Word this Sunday!
Why Don't You Grow Up?
Why don’t you grow up? Maturing in Christ is God’s goal for you - but how can you cooperate with God in the growth process? Rich Sprunk brings the Word this Sunday.
Guest Speaker: Kent Chevalier
Sometimes, God calls you to things you are afraid of. How should we respond? Do it afraid.

Guest Speaker: Dan Thompson

The Whirlwind (Guest Speaker Justin Cady)
Losing someone important to us is the hardest thing we are asked to do. Learn how to Biblically respond to and recover from the extremely difficult situation of loss. Join us for Guest Speaker Justin Cady.
Would YOU Choose Jesus or Barabbas?
We all make choices everyday. Sometimes we INTENTIONALLY make the wrong choice. Why do we do that? What are we thinking? The Bible discusses a choice that was made for all the wrong reasons. Come Sunday to find out why this choice was made and why we continue to make that same choice - and how we can choose better. Join us for Guest Speaker Ryan Stroupe.
Submitting to the Seasons.
We are currently living through a very difficult season of our nation's history. It can be hard to know who to believe and what to think at times. Thankfully, God's Word has a lot to say about living through difficult times and trusting in the Lord no matter what.
On July 19th, Guest Speaker Taylor Brown will preach through Ecclesiastes 3:1-15 and discuss how we as believers can submit to the Lord's plans as we walk through the various seasons of our lives.
Jesus in the Clutch!
This country and this world has gone through some crazy times lately. Maybe it’s put you in a dark place or in uncharted territory in your life and you don’t have answers. Perhaps you feel stuck or overwhelmed. Let’s find out together why our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ can be relied upon for comfort, strength and guidance - no matter how bad things get.
This is Jesus coming through in the clutch.
Join us for Guest Speaker Matt Koll.
Redemption!
Life got you down? Feeling beaten up and in need of a change? What you need is to be redeemed. God has His own way to do this. How do we get redeemed, what happens when we are, and what do we do after? That is the Lifecycle of Redemption. Join us for Guest Speaker Mike Wolski!
Guest Speaker: Dan Thompson!
Join us as Dan Thompson will be bringing the message from God’s Word to HBCPN!
Guest Speaker: Rich Sprunk!
Join us Sunday for a message from one of our Elders: Rich Sprunk!
Guest Speaker!
July is Guest Speaker Month! Four men from our church will be bringing God’s Word each Sunday: Justin Cady, Rich Sprunk, Ryan Stroupe, and Mike Wolski.
Each man has prepared a challenging and convicting message from God’s Word, and you won’t want to miss a single week!
Act Now: Don't Delay!
Dan Thompson will be bringing a message from God’s Word that I am almost certain you’ve never heard before! Dan and his wife Alicia have been with HBCPN since before day 1, and they serve the Lord faithfully leading Youth Group, hosting one of our Small Groups, and serving in many other areas. Dan always delivers the Word, so come ready to be challenged!
This is also our first Sunday back in our newly renovated space - so you just have to join us to celebrate!
Are You Depressed? There's Hope!
Every single believer struggles with sadness and depression to some degree. Thankfully, the Bible has a lot to say about spiritual depression, where it comes from, and how we should deal with it. This Sunday, we are going to dig into Psalm 42 which beautifully and honestly presents how we can find hope in the midst of feeling hopeless.
Guest Speaker Taylor Brown brings refreshing from the Word! Don’t miss it!
Guest Speaker: Ryan Stroupe!
Let's be honest: how much effort have you been putting into your walk with Christ? Though Christ purchased our salvation, the Bible says we are to "make EVERY effort" to add certain things to our faith. If your walk with Christ has been weak, maybe you haven't been adding these things. And maybe joining us Sunday is the biggest step you can take in your walk with the Lord.
Ryan Stroupe will be delivering the message!
Guest Speaker: Justin Cady!
It's time to take the test. THE test! "Am I a genuine follower of Jesus Christ?" It's the most important test you will ever take, because at the end of the day, at the end of your life, you don't want to roll the dice on this, or worse yet, be self-deceived (as the Bible says we are all susceptible of being).
The test will be given from Guest Speaker / Professor Justin Cady* this Sunday as he administers it from 1 John. See you there!
*Justin's professor credentials are not confirmed.
Guest Speaker: Mike Wolski
We live in a world we we are constantly bombarded with information. Yet the Bible claims God is THE absolute and only source of wisdom for navigating through life. How do we go after that kind of wisdom? Join us for guest speaker, HBCPN A/V leader Mike Wolski!
Guest Speaker: Rich Sprunk!
We'll see you this Sunday for a message from the first member of our inaugural graduating class of preachers from Harvest Bible Chapel Pittsburgh North.
Rich Sprunk serves as an Elder at HBC, and he is going to be bringing God's Word. So you want to be like Jesus? Do you really know what that means? You may be surprised what following Jesus calls you to do.
Guest Speaker: Steven Canfield!
Steven, his wife Christy, and their five children live in Greensburg, PA where they will be planting a church in 2019. Steven is currently an associate pastor at Harvest Bible Chapel Pittsburgh East. He served as Lead Pastor of One Savior Church in Guyton, GA for eight years before moving to PA three months ago. Steven is a lover of coffee, theology, basketball, and the Andy Griffith Show.

Grace in the Garden. (Guest Speaker Dan Thompson)
When we think of the Garden of Eden our minds often go to the obvious things: sin, fall of man, judgment, curse... all of those truly miserable results of the events of Genesis 3. But when you take a closer look, you will see that despite all of the evil, God shows up with lavish grace upon grace.
Join us as Dan Thompson (Arrow leader, Small Group Leader, all around incredible servant of Christ) helps us see the Fall of Man like never before.
Guest Speaker: Frank Zitzman!
Join us this Sunday for guest speaker Frank Zitzman! Frank is a powerful speaker, and he and his wife Sue have an absolutely amazing testimony. This is a message you do not want to miss!
Here's a preview from Frank:
On Father's Day, June 20th, 2004, I witnessed the unexpected death of my father. Nine short days later, I experienced an even more devastating loss - the tragic death of my precious 17-year- old son in a horrific motorcycle accident. "Troy-boy" was the youngest of our four children, and the last one at home. Words can't begin to describe the excruciating pain I felt that day. But where grief abounded, God's Grace abounded more!!! Thanks to the foundation of God’s Word, I ans my family were marvelously sheltered from that wicked storm of grief. In fact, we not only faced that tragedy, but we rose above it. And whatever the loss or tragedy in your life, you can too!! I strongly encourage you to come and learn the six Biblical principles that will enable you to victoriously deal with any despair that has come or will come into your life. Hope to see you Sunday!!!
Guest Speaker! Jeremiah Canfield
Jeremiah Canfield - Pastor Harvest Bible Chapel Pittsburgh East
We live in a day where the Word of God is being shifted and changed to fit our worldview. We start with our feelings and our personal struggles and then figure out a way to bring God's Word into it. One way that many have done this is with the topic of Homosexuality. To have a true Biblical understanding of this topic, we must start with asking ourselves what does the Bible say about Homosexuality before we bring all our presuppositions to the table. Once we discover what the Bibles says about Homosexuality, then we can look at what our stance should be in this world. I pray you will join us on July 30th as we dive into God's Word and find the truth about this controversy issue in our world today.
The Lord grabbed Jeremiah’s heart at a young age. Growing up in church with his dad serving as a full-time evangelist, he knew early on that he was meant to be in ministry. With a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Northland University and an M.A. in Religion from Liberty University, he pursued the calling from the Lord to be a pastor and plant a church. Jeremiah was ordained in 2005 and served as a youth/ college/recreation pastor for five years. He encourages the people of Harvest Pittsburgh East to “gather on Sunday to be fueled and then scatter throughout the week to light a fire in the city for the glory of God!” He has been serving at Harvest Pittsburgh East since 2013. Jeremiah and his wife, Stephanie, have five children: Karis, Titus, Elliana, Hadden, Sayla.

Worth Repeating
Alex Giannetti - www.alexgiannetti.com
Many themes and topics are repeated in the Scripture but there is one very specific message that is repeated more than any other. What is God trying to tell us about the largest stumbling block we face every day and what can we do about it?

Alex and Stacie are members of Harvest Bible Chapel with their two teen boys, Christian and Samuel
Guest Speaker! Brandon Stephenson
David: Failure and Redemption
After Jesus, the most talked about figure in the story of God is David. We’ve heard his stories of slaying giants and becoming king. He was full of triumphs and trials. He seems larger than life. But what if David and you aren’t that different? What if our lives actually relate more to David’s than we give thought to? What if the thing we need in life is the same thing David needed?
Brandon Stephenson - onechurchPGH.com
Brandon Stephenson was born and raised in Butler, PA. He was a part of North Street Christian Church where Pastor Jeff used to serve. Brandon is married to his amazing wife, Danielle, and they have 3 boys: Noah, Drew and Coby. They are currently planting a new church in the South Hills area of Pittsburgh called One Church.
Barnabas

Please consider giving a donation to his ministry, this will greatly impact God's work in Thailand below. We'd love to bless them in any way and further Christ's kingdom throughout the world!
The Elder takes the Stage
Guest Speaker - Mark Ort HBCPN Elder
Join us this week as Harvest Bible Chapel Pittsburgh North's very own elder Elder Mark Ort brings us God's Word. No where else will you get an exhaustive and deep-dive look into the history of the scripture at the time of it's writing, and then apply it into our current era and daily lives. You don't want to miss this week!
Too many Christians walk around feeling guilt and shame. While we should feel conviction over sin and use God's resources to walk in the Spirit, it is not God's intention for His people to feel condemned. Join us as Mark gives a message of freedom and relief!
