Bill Johnson, From Bethel Church in Redding CA, has some intense reflections on being a courageous disciple this week. His message, Crazy Courage, is a sequel to Kris Vallotton’s message last week on applying heaven’s power to our earthly service. Bethel is an awesome faith community. They’re actually walking the discipleship road in earnest.
Not that other communities aren’t; my own community has been ramping up for two years now in that same direction. We’ve been blessed with a lead pastor who understands where Jesus is calling us as a community, and is leading us all in that direction. I’m proud of the steps we’ve taken to walk the talk!
But Bill and the Bethel community are way out in front of the real-discipleship curve, and they’ve been walking that road in integrity and faithfulness for decades, even as other pastors and communities have fallen by the roadside. I really admire the believers at Bethel for their faithfulness and their risk-it-all courage.
