The Bethany Broadcast:
The Bethany Broadcast is a weekly capsule of worship highlights and big information that your brain may or may not have ‘downloaded’ from the prior Sunday. The purpose is to bolster you in faith, build you up in the key Biblical themes shared the previous Sunday in worship, to bring to mind the important issues on Bethany’s plate and to broaden your awareness of opportunities of service to your Lord, your church, and your community. What you are receiving today is the expanded e-version of The Bethany Broadcast. A printed copy of The Bethany Broadcast will always be available for you to pick up as you leave worship each week. Tell a friend about The Bethany Broadcast!
