BSSM Redding

Last week, a video was shared online that rightly led to strong feedback, concern, and criticism from the global Body of Christ regarding the way broken trust with Shawn Bolz was navigated by our church leadership. Pastors Bill Johnson, Kris Vallotton, and Dann Farrelly addressed this during our morning worship services yesterday. We encourage you to read the full leadership statement expressing their grief and repentance at bethel.ws/leadershipletter26 and to watch the morning service for more.

This little guide breaks it all down 👇
- How many hours you’re in class.
- What kind of community you’ll find.
- What you’re reading.

How do you talk like Jesus?

You speak with purpose—because every word has power to change lives.

What if your everyday conversations became the spark for revival?

What if your words planted seeds that blossom into hope, freedom, and new beginnings?

From friends to family to strangers, your voice carries Kingdom life—and it can change everything.

Before you speak, ask yourself:

🕊 Who am I really talking to? Do I see them as Jesus does—full of hope and endless potential?

🔥 Why am I speaking? Am I planting life, not just filling silence?

📖 What am I saying? Is it rooted in truth, grace, and hope?

🎙 How am I saying it? Is my tone kind, clear, and full of love?

👣 Am I honoring the legacy before me—the prayers of parents, the faith of pastors, the moments with God that shaped us?

God gives the increase.
We get to plant and water.

When we talk like Jesus, our lives change—and the world around us begins to shift.

Let’s speak with faith, courage, and joy—because revival starts with the words we choose.

How to Know God Is Good (Even When It’s Hard)

God’s goodness isn’t fragile.

It doesn’t shift with your emotions or disappear in the hard seasons.

It’s who He is.
Always. 💛

And we’re choosing to live like it.

✨ We’re choosing to remember when it’d be easier to forget

🎶 We’re choosing worship when we feel weary

🫶 We’re choosing to believe that God’s still generous—still moving—still good.

Not because life is perfect.
But because He is.

Revival doesn’t need a microphone or a ministry title.

It just needs hearts who believe God is better than we thought—and closer than we knew.

So today, we’re showing up differently.

Because He already did. 🙏

How to Have a Summer of Revival ☀️

Revival isn't just packed rooms and powerful encounters.

It can also look like slow mornings, quiet obedience, and choosing worship when no one’s watching.

We’re not all on a stage this summer.

We’re not all preaching or leading worship or running a ministry team.

But revival has never been about position… it’s always been about posture.

So this summer, we’re choosing to show up differently.

🕊 We’re sowing prayer into our friends’ freedom

🙏 We’re opening our Bibles when it would be easier to scroll

🔥 We’re staying soft when it would be easier to shut down

We’re building altars in the unseen places—
in kitchens, cars, coffee shops, and quiet times.

Because revival isn’t hype.
It’s hunger.

And we’re not waiting for a stage or spotlight.

We’ve already been lit.
So this summer, we burn.

Commissioned to burn. 🔥🔥

Commissioning is always one of our most moving events of the year.

We’re not saying goodbye to our students... we’re sending them.

We’ve laid hands, we’ve prayed bold prayers, and we’ve sealed a year of revival fire in hearts that will never be the same.

These students have been equipped to live the gospel, walk in power, and release heaven on earth.

Jesus is the prize.
The nations are the inheritance.

What an honor to run alongside such burning ones.
Laid-down lovers of God. 💛

Ready to carry His glory into every corner of culture.

But when you know you are a son or daughter of God, you live from abundance, confidence, and freedom! 🙌

Break free from fear, step into your true identity, and embrace the love of the Father. You were made for more!
