Under normal circumstances, it is encouraged and important to gather in person in the same place at the same time.
Eastside Baptist Church will provide a public gathering at 10:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. at 204 Eastland Drive North in Twin Falls and is pleased to provide streaming for those unable to gather.
Streaming will take place here: 10:30 a.m. Mountain Time
While Eastside Baptist continues to weigh the circumstances caused by COVID-19, we continue to gather with increased caution and respect to our neighbors while exercising personal responsibility.
Knowing that some of our church family will need to remain at home during these days we are pleased to offer our gatherings through a faithful partner, Sermon Audio. Eastside has been blessed with the services of Sermon Audio for nearly eight years now. That means we have hundreds of sermons available for you to listen to during this time of “social distancing”.
Have you downloaded the new app for Eastside Baptist Church? It’s simple!

If you are under a self-quarantine and not gathering on Sunday be sure to participate via our live-streaming features provided by SermonAudio too.
There are many ways you can do this. One of which you just did by downloading our sermon app. The following are other suggestions to consider on multiple platforms, including a phone line that can provide an audio connection from any touch-tone phone.
May God use the preaching ministry of Eastside Baptist Church to minister to you. Contact Eastside Baptist Church if we can assist you in these important days as we turn our attention to Him for His glory.
By the grace of God, we are already set up to provide a live service for those unable to physically gather with us during the COVID-19 outbreak. To be clear, this is not the recommended normal way to participate with a church, but in a time like this it is reasonable and encouraged for those sick, away, or vulnerable.
Earlier this week we were able to have all connections updated and serviced. Our internet provider installed new equipment and our IT guy (Dan) reestablished the IT things (I’m sure that’s no the right way to say any of that, but that’s what happened).
Here are some tips on how how to access Eastside Baptist Church via our SermonAudio connection. SermonAudio provides our streaming on several platforms from mobile, notebook, desktop, Roku, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, and landline. No matter where you are, you’ll be able to access our sermons and webcasts. Our Church Code ID: 25378
My advice to you if you are not able to gather with us in person is the same as if you could. Do all you can to eliminate any potential distractions (ie: avoid surfing other sites while participating), get your Bible out, sing with the people, pray with the people, and hear the preached word of the Almighty God.
There is no better way to experience a corporate church gathering than in person, but for such a day as this, bless the Lord.
This is a great way to introduce someone to Eastside Baptist Church. There are some in the area that will not be gathering, send them a link to www.esbcTwinFalls.com. Invite them to come with you. I am preaching through Isaiah 52:12-53:12 for the next several weeks. This text is all about the suffering servant, the Lord Jesus Christ. All of these verses lead us to the gospel.
Eastside Baptist Church has been broadcasting sermons for over eight years. Over the past two years we have been live streaming our sermons. All of this by the kindness of God and the generosity of His people.
I’ve recently been contacted by a local radio station to broadcast our Lord’s Day sermons, with a one week delay. I’m still praying about this and waiting for the Lord to give direction on this possibility. This past six months have shown that a consideration to broadcast on a medium other than the internet has proven a need. This need has shown itself expensive. To broadcast online is relatively inexpensive, but to broadcast on the radio, that is more widely available, is very expensive.
The guys at SermonAudio have just made another way for people to listen in this week. To someone with a mobile phone or access to a phone with free long distance you can now listen in with a simple phone call.
Help me spread the word to those unable to attend in person, don’t have a computer, but have a phone.
