Located on Fayetteville Road in Durham, Berea Baptist Church is a quaint, active community of faith. For more than 150 years, we have served our families and community by providing sound Biblical teaching and preaching, age-appropriate programming, and diverse opportunities for worship and ministry.
We invite you to explore our website and plan a visit to our place of worship. It is our desire to meet the physical and spiritual needs of our community as a way of fulfilling the Great Commission. As Jesus instructed his disciples to go out and preach the Good News, it is our hope to remain faithful to that command, as followers of Christ. Come see and learn about Jesus’ mercy, grace, and love.

Current Sermon Series:
Join us for our new sermon series: Jesus is Our High Priest
Please join us in-person or via livestream or podcast over the next eleven weeks (September 8th through November 17th) as Robert and Phil delve into the New Testament Letter to the Hebrews. In this new sermon series, Jesus Is Our High Priest, we will be reminded that God has spoken to us through His prophets and continues to speak to us through His Son, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Given the current turmoil and chaos experienced in today's world, the Letter to the Hebrews reminds us that Jesus identifies with our weaknesses, and He understands our temptations. Therefore, we can approach God's throne of grace boldly (Hebrews 4:14-16) and live a full life grounded in our faith in God and His promises (Hebrews 11). Finally, we receive daily encouragement through the fact that "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever Hebrews 13:8)."
