Bethel Redding Sermon of the Week

The Power of Our Words

As image-bearers of a God who creates with His Words, it’s important that we understand the power of ours. In the message, Havilah Cunnington teaches on the power and influence our spoken words carry. Our words create worlds that we are responsible for managing. What we say reveals much about what we believe, the contents of our hearts, what we’ve made an agreement with, and more. What kind of world are you creating with your language? How can you begin to partner with Heaven, releasing the culture of its kingdom into the world around you? This message is foundational for our faith and a moment to realign our faith with increased intention behind what we allow ourselves to speak. We bless you as you listen!

Community Heals

Community heals. God delights in it so deeply that He chooses to reveal Himself in the midst of it. In this message, Bill Johnson unpacks the power of fellowship within the people and communities around us. We are designed for connection—first with God, and then with one another. Many of the plans and purposes of God for our lives are discovered, strengthened, and fulfilled in the context of relationship. In that place, there is an invitation to love well. We know that we are called to love our neighbor—not just in word, but in the same way we have been loved by God. When believers show up for one another with intentionality and care, we begin to reflect the heart of Christ and experience His presence through community. As you listen, ask the Lord how you can more intentionally steward the relationships He has given you. Our prayer is that you would be encouraged to love deeply, invest faithfully, and continue building a life grounded in connection with Him and others.

Aligning With Divine Purpose, Part Three

Aligning with the divine purpose over our lives is essential to bringing the kingdom of Heaven to earth; and we’ve been commissioned to do it. In this message, Bill Johnson continues his series on aligning with divine purpose. The plans and purposes God assigned us to are more than good plans. Divine purpose is our duty as believers. How do we, as carriers of Christ, go about bringing the kingdom of God to the places we’ve been planted in? What happens when believers live powerful and intentional, Christ-like lives? The power of Jesus dwelling within every Christian is designed to manifest through their lives. There’s an invitation to say "yes" again to being the hands and feet of Jesus to the world around us. As you join us for part three of this series, our prayer is that you’d be inspired and commissioned to answer that call again!

The Ministry of Reconciliation

In part, our identity in Christ is embracing the fact that we were born for reconciliation, where we pursue kingdom justice as the ultimate result. In this message, Kris Vallotton unpacks what justice looks like in the kingdom of God and the essential role of forgiveness and reconciliation in that process. Jesus is the author of true justice, and as His image-bearers, we are designed to reflect it. What does it look like on this side of eternity? How are believers to navigate the moments leading up to justice? As we rediscover the power of forgiveness and the ministry of reconciliation entrusted to us, we pray you are equipped and encouraged to walk out your faith with confidence in the finished work of the Cross, reflecting the heart and nature of Christ in every area of your life.   , , , , , Kingdom Justice, ,

What Is Your Well-Worn Path?

What is your well-worn path? It’s time to get back to our original design. In this message, Hayley Braun teaches from the book of Ephesians, providing practical steps for living in our divine design. When we have a value for something, we protect it. How do you know you are valuing your life in Christ? What does submission to the Lord look like in the lives of His people? This timely word is an encouragement for the Body of Christ and a moment to realign our hearts with His. Wherever you are tuning in, we pray it blesses you!
