Today, the organization is one of the state’s most comprehensive and vital resources serving babies, children, youth, teen mothers, college students, and families. Asbury is proud to partner with Embrace Alabama Kids. Make a donation this December.

Did you catch our virtual Christmas Day message? It’s not too late to enjoy this terrific video with music by Asbury and select Birmingham Boys Choir musicians and a message from Pastor Robert on YouTube @asburybham.
We know the week of Christmas is hectic for everyone so Asbury will only have its 11:00 a.m. Modern and Traditional Worship services. 8:30 a.m. Traditional Worship and Sunday School resumes Jan. 4.
Starting Jan. 4, our pastors begin a new sermon series challenging common misconceptions about God. He’s not like an imperfect parent. He’s not an angry judge. He doesn’t reward only the best and brightest. Instead, He’s our refuge and rescuer, always ready to strengthen, guide, and redeem. Join us at 8:30 and 11:00 a.m.
