As we return to life beyond our 28-day Digital Fast, we sit down with Pastor Jason to unpack the journey and the reentry. We discuss the biggest takeaways for us personally, for Bethlehem Church, and for the Church at large. In this episode, we reflect on areas of growth, the moments that surprised us, and the daily disciplines that have reshaped our relationship with technology. Pastor Jason challenges us to be INTENTIONAL instead of INSTINCTUAL when it comes to how we use our phones. This isn't just about screen time. It's a matter of discipleship and forming habits that lead us toward greater awareness of Jesus' presence, deeper rest, and a renewed mind.

This episode explores the heart of Bethlehem Church's mission: leading people to discover new life in Christ. Join our Discipleship Team as we unpack what it means to be a people of hope and a place of healing, moving toward becoming more like Jesus in every stage of life. We'll dive into three directives that we see clearly in Scripture—looking up to God, leaning into community, and going out to make disciples—and reflect on how discipleship is not a destination but a way of life. Whether you're new to faith or have been walking with Jesus for years, this episode is a reminder of the hope, healing, and purpose found in Him. No matter where you are in your faith journey, you can always a next step to growing in Christ.
In this episode, we explore the profound journey of grief. In John 16:33, Jesus says, "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." Grief is a complex process, and it looks different for everyone. Many attending Bethlehem Church have found hope and healing through joining a Grief Share group. We offer Grief Share groups every semester. Whether you've just entered a season of grief, have been walking through one for a while, or have come through it and found healing on the other side, wherever you are, Grief Share is for you. Our guests featured in this episode, Mitch and Diane Plemmons, Lauren Jendrzejewski, Al and Debby Hawkins, and Beth Holmes, remind us that we are not alone in our journey and that there is hope, healing, and joy found in Christ-centered community.

Tune in to discover how practicing confession can set you free to live in the truth of God's love and grace!
