God has positioned us to be the answer for those searching for answers. Charles Dickens opening line from A Tale of Two Cities is an apt description of our world in 2011: “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” We have intense light being expressed in a moment of profound darkness. America is on the ropes – not just economically but morally and spiritually. America has gone downhill because God has been systematically removed from our society.
The Kingdom of God needs to see the kind of leadership that is necessary to bring the turnaround that our nation and the world are in desperate need of. God is raising up some Pentecostal churches in Lexington KY who rather than recognizing dead religion; we recognized the power of God’s presence!
Now more than ever, the world needs come and see, presence-driven Pentecostal churches in Lexington KY. The world needs YOU! What a tragedy to be a GREAT man or woman and to live in a time when greatness is not required. We don’t need any more dead churches in America! God has positioned us for “such a time as this”! That’s why the #1 result of “why do people come to Bethel & stay” IS the presence of God!!
America needs a radical new breed of Pentecostal churches in Lexington KY and the world who are courageous enough to be prophetic leaders in the midst of intense darkness! Being a presence-driven means we have a heart that is broken for the lost, hurting, and hopeless. And even more, we must have a heart that is willing to make risky visionary decisions for THEIR sake!
God is looking for Pentecostal churches in Lexington KY that will not speak gloom & doom theology, but rather reveal the heart of the Father to a lost world! Too many churches are “Come & be judged…come & be condemned…come & be discouraged” – but Bethel is a “Come and See” church! America needs a miracle. Lexington & Nicholasville & Richmond & Georgetown need a miracle! God has positioned us to BE a miracle for our city!
In a presence-driven church, let me tell you what happens because I’ve seen ALL these things happen in the last 6 months! People are delivered from addictions, bodies are healed, people are set free from homosexual lifestyles, suicidal thoughts leave in an instant, perversion & lust are removed, wounds from abuse are healed, religion is replaced with life & presence & power, people don’t just receive but they begin to be a conduit of God’s power!
Every ministry we have is driven by God’s presence! Our REdefined student ministry for middle school and high school is redefining how this generation views and experiences church. Our Jam Town children’s ministry is a safe and nurturing environment for your children. Our small group ministry creates opportunities for you to connect. Our singles and young adult ministries are all about having some fun, making friends, and growing in God together. Each month we are distributing hundreds of boxes of food at discounted cost through our Angel Food ministry. If you want to know more about the Bethel story or about Our Pastors, Marion and Stephanie Dalton, our website can answer all your questions.
Like every ministry area, our services on Sunday’s at 9 & 11am and Wednesday’s at 6:30 are a presence driven experience where you will encounter God and leave changed! Anointed worship and biblical preaching of the Gospel characterize our services. Our praise and worship team leads with a spirit of excellence that is infused with a passion to usher in God’s presence. Our Pastors minister with transparency, anointing, and relevance that capture the heart of the churched and the un-churched alike. In most services, you’ll hear stories of how God has changed the lives of real people just like you and have an opportunity to have receive ministry from our prayer team.
And if you can’t make it to a service but you want to see what Bethel is about, you can watch every service online at www.bethellive.com.
If you are hungry for God’s presence, then Bethel just might be the place for you! There all kinds of pentecostal churches in Lexington KY but Bethel is a church that you just have to come and see. If you do, you won’t be disappointed!
