Bethel Atlanta

Are you navigating a season of intense pressure or isolation? We live in an increasingly disconnected and machine-driven world, but God never intended for us to walk through our pain alone.

In this intensely vulnerable and deeply relational message, Paul Manwaring shares his personal journey through a highly stressful season of leadership and the profound revelation that followed: the absolute necessity of honest, accountable friendship. Drawing from the perfect example of the Holy Spirit—our Helper and ultimate Friend who isn't afraid to "sit in the mud" with us—Paul challenges our community to move beyond surface-level interactions. He invites us to foster relationships that ask the hard questions, speak the truth, and consistently point us back to Jesus.

It’s time to take ownership of our connections. Let’s step out of isolation, champion mental fitness, and become a family that heals together around the table.

Currently, there is a lot swirling in the media, leading to confusion, hurt, and questions. It is entirely okay to be in that process and feel those emotions. However, as a supernatural family, we are called to love unconditionally. In month two of our Family series, we explore how to lock arms with one another, making room for people to be in process while calling them higher.

Love is not a human effort; it is a divine influence and a supernatural power. We look at 1 Corinthians 13 and 1 John 4 to understand that perfect love casts out fear and requires nothing in return. Grace is not permission to stay in our messes, but rather the supernatural empowerment to step forward and change. Join us as we take a milestone step toward our mandate of unity for Atlanta.

We were never designed to do life in a vacuum. In this kickoff to our Family pillar series, Pastor Andy explores the radical reality of Acts 2:42—a community so devoted to one another that it changed history.

We often view family through the lens of our past experiences—some beautiful, some broken. But Kingdom family isn't about finding a perfect environment; it's about taking personal responsibility to create one.

In this message, we confront the modern barriers to connection (technology, busyness, and walls masquerading as boundaries) and issue a challenge: move from being a consumer of community to a cultivator of it. Revival is sustained in family. Are you ready to show up?

Hearing God’s voice isn’t reserved for the spiritual elite—it is the birthright of every son and daughter. In this final message of our Supernatural pillar series, Dan Weber breaks down the practical mechanics of hearing the Father, moving us from mystery to maturity.

Using 1 Corinthians 14 and his own journey from "Roofer Dan" to revivalist, he demystifies the prophetic process. He explains that hearing the voice (Revelation) is just the beginning. The real stewardship happens in understanding what it means (Interpretation) and knowing when to act (Application).

If you’ve ever wondered, "Was that God, me, or the pizza I ate?" this message will equip you with a simple filter to distinguish the Father's voice from the noise. It’s time to move past the fear of getting it wrong and into the joy of conversation with the One who is always speaking.
