« Psalm 30 Joshua 10 John 17 »

James 4:11–12 (Listen)

11 Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. 12 There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

Mary’s story

“I’m not perfect but I know I can ask God for forgiveness and he helps me.”

Tim asked me if I was a Christian. I said, ‘I believe I am’ but when he asked me if I went to church I had to say ‘No’… Before I came to Bethel, I had thought that going to church and reading your Bible and praying must mean I was a Christian, but I began to understand that’s not what makes you a Christian.

Sunday Services
There's something on most days of the week, but our two Sunday services at 10:30am and 6:00pm are our focus. Both services include prayer, singing and Bible teaching, and we sing a mix of traditional and more modern hymns. In the morning there's a short talk for the children, before they go downstairs for Sunday School. In both services there's a 35 minute message from the Bible (you can listen to previous sermons online).
