Bethel Media (Sermons & Podcast)

Leaders in the early church were holding onto the old covenant ways instead of looking to the freedom provided in Christ. Paul warns them to watch out for (1) legalism, (2) mysticism, and (3) asceticism.

We highlight a few significant things coming up like the Better Together service, VBS, camps, and more.

The secret to living a growing and thriving Christian life is Christ in you, the hope of glory! When we become frustrated and overwhelmed in our walk with Christ often times its because we are trying to do it on our own. When Christ is in you, he gives us everything we need to live a Godly life.

Jesus is the image of the invisible God and the firstborn of all creation. He is the creator and sustainer of the universe and also reconciles sinful man to a holy God. When we stop and consider these realities we see just how amazing Jesus is!

When life gets hard, its easy to lose hope. We are tempted to find hope in the things of this world but through the resurrection of Jesus from the dead we can receive a Living Hope that is secured in heaven for us!

We all understand that Jesus' Kingdom is greater than the worst that the world has to offer, but we need the constant reminder that it is greater than even the best the world has to offer.

When we consider all that God has done for us in Christ, the work that he is doing in the church, and across the globe, our heart's response is to give thanks! Instead of grumbling and complaining, what would it look like to thank God in your life?

Definitions, discussions, and opportunities centered around discipleship and disciple-making at Bethel.

When the storms of life come, what do you believe about God? Is he close and caring, or distant and mean? Through the story of Jesus calming the storm, we can see that when hard times come, Jesus gives us exactly what we need to make it through!

Being a disciple of Jesus means we obey all that he's commanded. In The Great Commission Jesus challenges us to "Make Disciples." The way we do this is through life on life. We open our lives, set an example, and teach the Word!

Sara Torrison, Amy Oxley, and Stephanie Fogerty take over the podcast this week to share from their perspective as the wives of the Pastors at Bethel.

When the early church prayed, they were filled with the Holy Spirit which led them to be boldnesses for Jesus Christ in the midst of opposition. The same applies for us today! When we as the Church gather to pray, God moves in extraordinary ways!

God has a plan for his people that through being filled with the Spirit, they are to be his witnesses locally, regionally, and globally.

This week we talk about the burdens of busyness, both in our personal lives and in the church.

Jesus is our great high priest; and since he gives us access to God's throne in heaven, through his shed blood on the cross, every believer should be all-in as a worshiper. We don't want to be a "shoulders-up" church, but want to love and worship our God with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

Our treasures belong to God. We can’t take them with us when we die. So, let’s invest in the unfailing kingdom of God.

This episode we're interviewing Charlie Bailey, a lifetime Bethel family member and currently serving on our Elder Board.

In light of the glorious salvation we have received through Christ, we have a calling to belong to the local church. This involves being honest in our struggles, and present in the Gathering.

A Biblical church must not only Preach the Word, and be centered on the Gospel, but also be devoted to one another. As Christians were called to be real and care for others needs all because God found us at our worst and welcomed us in.

This week Pastor Chad and Weston discuss theology and why it is vital to Bethel.

All humans are created in the image of God. Therefore, babies in the womb have intrinsic worth. As a result, as Christians we should stand for right to life and also care for those who are considering abortion or have had one.
