John 10:11–17 (Listen)

11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13 He flees because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd. 17 For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it up again.

Children and youth
There's plenty in Bethel for children of every age. There's a Sunday school with classes for nursery, infants and juniors. On Sunday evenings there's an after-church meeting for teenagers. In the week there are children's clubs after school: Adventurers for children in nursery and infants, Discoverers for juniors, and Impact for those in High School.

John’s story

“I wasn't wholly committed to Christ. I only gave part of my heart and I kept part for myself.”

I wasn't wholly committed to Christ. I only gave part of my heart and I kept part for myself. Then after my college days, I clearly remember while praying one night being suddenly overwhelmed by the presence of God. It was a very powerful, humbling, joyous and transforming experience. It turned me fully to Jesus. Everything had now changed for me. We have a wonderful Saviour, who is our refuge and peace. He meets our every need, and guides our ways. He gives us contentment in him, so we are satisfied with whatever he has given us.
