Bethel Redding Sermon of the Week

Eric Johnson teaches from Luke 19. By climbing a tree, Zacchaeus finds a way to get himself in front of Jesus. There's something about positioning ourselves to be found by Jesus. He is eager to seek us and He wants to come to our house!

Kris Vallotton speaks about God's purpose for our lives. Jesus knows how to take your daily process and turn it into your destiny. God has many ways to get us to our purpose!

Eric Johnson teaches from 2 Chronicles 20. Jehoshaphat is an example of someone who sought God at the height of success and in the face of crisis. Let's be the people who worship before there's ever a reason to worship!

At a recent staff meeting, Kris Vallotton asked Bill a profound question which opened up a conversation we felt was loaded with hidden gems of wisdom and insight. We felt it was important to share this with you. The quality is not at a professional level, but the raw nature of the conversation could not be captured any other way. Please enjoy this and discuss with your friends and family.

Bill Johnson teaches from Zechariah on having hope in all circumstances. Hope is the joyful anticipation of good. For every situation we face, we've been prepared and God has an answer!

Eric Johnson speaks on finding out why we're alive. We may be the product of our environment, but what are we going to do about it? We must step up to the plate or someone else will. Like Esther, we're alive for such a time as this!

Bill Johnson speaks on the subject of restoration. God's heart is set on restoring every broken and lost thing in our lives. In this service, Bill prays for the restoration of relationships, finances, and health.

Danny Silk teaches on the nature of Heaven as promotion. Ask the Lord for blessing and expansion. It's in His heart to give it, but we must be willing to go through the process!

Bill Johnson talks about love versus fear. When God gives a command He empowers us to do what we previously couldn't do. So when the Lord tells us not to fear, it means there is the grace to be victorious.

Eric Johnson speaks on how we are a new creation and Christ is forming something in us. He is making us look just like Him. Let's live with the reality that we are a new creation because we said yes to Jesus.

Bill Johnson teaches on positioning ourselves for the more of God. Revival is the heart of God that continuously flows to humanity, and it's the people of God who make decisions to step into what He's already ordained. Let's hunger for the move of God to increase in our lifetime!

Bill Johnson shares on the importance of having a big worldview. A worldview that causes us to be moved with compassion for people is an essential part of life. Being exposed to need moves us, but let's deliberately choose a world need and look for someone we can invest in.

Eric Johnson teaches from 2 Corinthians on ambition and longing. We're alive because we behold the face of God and we're hungry for more. Longing for something greater is written into our DNA because we have beheld something that has no limits.

Paul Manwaring shares his message on glory. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. Your assignment is shekinah–to be a dwelling place of a dwelling God. Do you realize just how valuable you are to Heaven?

Candace Johnson shares how developing a strong core is key to living abundantly. Who's God calling you to do life with and go deep with? It's important we develop relationships where we know people and people know us. Let's be wise builders and build community.

Eric Johnson continues with part three of his series on Judges. God loves to raise up people to set nations free. It's not about being the most talented, it's about being the most available. As we advance and win, our worship always belongs to the King!

Bill Johnson teaches from Matthew 20:16. What is it you're asking God for? Keep your eyes open for anyone that's experiencing what you've longed for, and champion them from the heart. This will qualify you for your own victory!

Eric Johnson continues his series on Judges. Like Gideon, God has designed you to deliver nations and set people free. When we remove an idol, we must establish true worship in its place. This is key for driving the enemy out of the land–completely!

Eric Johnson teaches on greatness from Judges and explains how each of us has a story that is great. You have a story that needs to be lived and needs to be told. Every one of us has a sense we're called to something more, it's in our DNA and it's the way God made us. You're designed to go forward!

Bill Johnson teaches from 2 Chronicles 20 when God delivers King Jehoshaphat and Judah from their enemies. When we find ourselves in trouble, we're to run to the Lord, recount our history with Him, and receive a fresh word. This culminates in God giving us a new song and as we sing, He sets ambushes and secures our victory!

Christine Caine speaks on the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand. God isn't asking us to do everything, he's asking us to give what we have. It's not about what I'm not or what I don't have, it's about who He is!

God's obsessed with the lost! Christine Caine shares how we must be passionate for what God's passionate for or we'll miss what life's about. Jesus came to seek and save that which was lost and he sends his Church into the world to do exactly what He did. As Christians, we ought to be lostologists!

Christine Caine speaks on the story of Jesus feeding the five thousand. God isn't asking us to do everything, he's asking us to give what we have. It's not about what I'm not or what I don't have, it's about who He is!

Dios tiene promesas para cada uno de nosotros que impactarán al mundo a nuestro alrededor. Cual es la razón entonces por la que tan pocos creyentes apropian las promesas que Dios tiene para ellos? Christine Caine nos comparte como vivir no solamente libertados en el desierto, sino libres en la tierra prometida.

God has promises for each and every one of us that will impact the world around us. But why do so few believers truly step into the promises God has for them? Christine Caine shares how to live not just delivered in the wilderness, but free in the promised land.

Bill Johnson uses Acts 13 to emphasize ministering to the Lord without an agenda. It's in those quiet times God births significant things in our hearts, things that face opposition in order to come into full fruition. You were born for something that's on the other side of your greatest opposition!

Kris Vallotton speaks on a culture of encouragement. In the New Testament we see Barnabas encouraging Paul who in turn encourages Timothy. It's vital to surround ourselves with people who believe in us.

Bill Johnson leads an intimate study of Proverbs 3:5-12. In these verses we're commanded to trust, fear and honor the Lord. We are designed to bear much fruit and these verses show us how!

Eric Johnson encourages us to be intentional about our time and to create memorable moments and time apart. Being too busy and distracted can rob us of quality of life and keep us from facing things we need to deal with. Like the Lord Jesus, who carved out precious time alone or with His disciples on mountaintops, we will be refreshed and more ready to give if we set aside a special time and place in our lives for tranquility. And like Solomon, who hosted the Queen of Sheba, we will be able to bring others into the atmosphere that we have created.

Eric Johnson teaches on having a father's heart towards people. Fathers are present, focused, inclusive, encouraging and authentic. As children of God we have a responsibility to show the love of our Father to our fellow man!

Bill Johnson teaches us how to pray for our country. We need voices of truth who will not be intimidated by the political or religious spirit. It's time to restore righteousness to our land!

Paul Manwaring addresses five lies that prevent men from being the fathers God's called them to be. Our life assignment, like Jesus, is to reveal the Father by being a son. Regardless of gender or role, we have the privilege of being His children and of revealing Him as the perfect Father.

Kris Vallotton sheds light on how believers are to relate to the Word of God. It's important that we hold each truth in tension, live on the proceeding word of God, and build precept upon precept. The point of reading the Bible is to come into a relationship with the Author and join His ministry of redemption and reconciliation!

Candace Johnson speaks on the elements of success. Success looks like love, generosity, stewardship, gratitude, excellence and obedience as well as living powerfully and partnering with truth. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us!

Kris Vallotton preaches on the gospel of power. In the book of Acts, we see that the early church needed the baptism of the Holy Spirit in order to be witnesses of Jesus throughout the world. Jesus always intended for us to do greater works than Him! In order to do that, let's believe and step out in faith.

Bill Johnson explains the sacrificial nature of praise and thanksgiving. Scripture says that we enter His courts through gates of praise. When we praise the Lord even when it's difficult, even when the breakthrough has not yet arrived, we give Him an offering that becomes an access point into His presence. Let's go through the gates!

Eric Johnson and Jeremy Riddle share their insights into the the key role that faith plays in our worship to the Lord. Faith isn't simply mental acceptance of theological ideas, rather it has a physical expression in our actions. Faith is central to worship because without it, we cannot please God. Let's step out of fear and into faith as we worship God in spirit and truth!

Brian and Jenn Johnson teach on the lifestyle of worship. They encourage us to engage in the different postures of praise that are found in the Bible. Just like King David, we are invited to find God's heart and develop an affectionate connection with Him. We are becoming like the One we worship!

Bill Johnson begins a new series on worship. We are designed to respond to God's presence with worship, and as we do so, we are continually transformed into the likeness of Jesus. Thanksgiving and praise are necessary sacrifices, but in worship, we ourselves are the living sacrifices! God is looking for worshippers; will you be one of them?

Bill Johnson exhorts us to continue to pursue the more of God at any cost. Hunger for more should be partnered with biblical keys in order to avoid deception; recognizing Jesus as the Son of God, the authority of Scripture, and the necessity of the accountability found in community. Be encouraged to continue passionately in your pursuit of the Lord and upgrade your cry for more!

Bill Johnson encourages the body of believers to surround and support those who have taken extraordinary risk in the areas of finances, relationships, health, and ministry and are still waiting on their breakthroughs. Just as Joshua and the Israelites saw supernatural breakthrough on the seventh day of marching around the walls of Jericho, so we will see the answer of our prayers if we do not lose heart. God didn't put you on the front lines for humiliation; He put you on the front lines for victory!

They serve with hope because they can see that God is building something with purpose and plans that are still unfolding.
