Family of God
May 10, 2026
In Week 4 of our Church Unbranded series, Lead Pastor Jason Britt delivers a special Mother’s Day message focusing on one of the most powerful identities we possess: being part of the Family of God.
While “family” can be a complicated word for many, the gospel offers a new lineage that isn’t based on genetics or willpower, but on the grace of Jesus Christ. To follow Christ is to move from being a stranger to being a child with full legal standing, an inheritance, and a massive group of brothers and sisters.

Here and Now
April 19, 2026
In this opener of our new series, “Church Unbranded,” Lead Pastor Jason Britt introduces a powerful “grounding technique” for the soul. In a world defined by noise pollution, political division, and constant distraction, we often lose sight of the bigness and beauty of what we are a part of.
Using the Lord’s Prayer as our guide, we discover that the Kingdom of God is not a spiritual metaphor or a “someday” hope—it is a reality happening in the here and now. As citizens of this Kingdom, we are called to be an “outpost of hope” in the middle of a broken world.
The Temple
April 26, 2026
In Week 2 of our Church Unbranded series, we are joined by a special guest and close friend of Bethlehem: Pastor Jason Berry from 12Stone Church. As part of this unique partnership between our two churches, Pastor Jason helps us look past the “brand” on the sign and into the biblical heart of what the church actually is.
While our culture often views church as a place we go, the New Testament describes it as a people we belong to. Specifically, Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 3 that we together are the Temple. This isn’t just a metaphor; it is an earth-shattering reality that shifts how we live, work, and relate to God every single day.
My Bride
May 3, 2026
In the third week of the Church Unbranded, Lead Pastor Jason Britt explores one of the most intimate and enduring metaphors for the church found in Scripture: The Bride of Christ.
In a culture defined by noise, division, and “hollow philosophies,” the church is called to be a people who are deeply united. This message pushes us past our Western consumer mindset—where we “go to” or “attend” church like a gym or a grocery store—and invites us into a love story where we are the beloved people Jesus gave His life for.
Salt & Light
May 17, 2026
In Week 5 of our Church Unbranded series, Pastor Matt Piland dives into one of the most famous passages in the entire Sermon on the Mount: Matthew 5:13-16.
Jesus doesn’t tell His disciples to try to become salt and light; He makes definitive identity statements: “You ARE the salt of the earth” and “You ARE the light of the world.” In this challenging message, Pastor Matt confronts our natural impulse to build our own little territorial kingdoms where we try to remain king, inviting us instead to step out into a decaying and dark society to quietly preserve, heal, and reflect the glory of our Heavenly Father.
