It's Resurrection Sunday! Jesus conquered death and now He offers abundant, eternal life to all who trust in Him.
"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?'" (John 11:25-26)

Preaching is a cornerstone of local church ministry and is specifically commanded in Scripture. At ABC, men learn expository preaching—carefully studying the text of God's Word and then "exposing" its intended meaning to the listener.
During the Lester E. Pipkin Expository Preaching Week, these Homiletics students preached from I Thessalonians 5 (Nate Donnelly), Philippians 2 (Alex Eichhorn), and Philippians 1 (Gabriel Miller).

The Board of Directors recognized Dr. and Mrs. Anderson for their 45 years at Appalachian Bible Fellowship. For 40 of those years, Dr. A has served as president. Chairman of the Board Mr. Lane Ellis, Jr. summarized Dr. Anderson's ministry in two words: leadership and faithfulness. Mrs. Maureen Van Den Berg, another board member, spoke in tribute to Mrs. Anderson's role as faculty and wife of the president—not to mention mother of five. Two of their daughters joined for the special luncheon: Mrs. Sarah Rinker with husband Dr. Jonathan Rinker, and Mrs. Rebekah Anderson-Rowe with husband Mr. Michael Rowe.
