Proverbs 14:29 (Listen)

29   Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding,
    but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.

(ESV)

Proverbs 15:1 (Listen)

15:1   A soft answer turns away wrath,
    but a harsh word stirs up anger.

(ESV)

Finding faith
We love sharing our faith with others, but we also know from our own experience that many people need time and space to think through the message of the Bible for themselves. So if you want to explore what Christianity offers, we think you'll find Bethel a great place to do that. If you want to just listen, that's fine. If you've got questions, we'll do our best to help. If you've problems that no-one else seems to be able to help with — perhaps a bereavement, family crisis, or spiralling debts — then you'll find Bethel a place where you can not only get emotional and practical support, but spiritual help, too.

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.
