Tending Your Soil: The Real Work of Discipleship | Pillar Series

Are you just along for the ride, or are you an apprentice to Jesus? In week two of our Grow month, Dan challenges us to step into the real work of discipleship. We can't simply bypass our pain or ignore our humanness in the name of being spiritual. Instead, we are invited to hold our new creation identity in one hand and our process of sanctification in the other.

By taking ownership of our inner world and tending to the soil of our hearts—assessing our friction, getting curious about our triggers, and partnering with the Holy Spirit to process our history—we make room for explosive, hundredfold growth. Transformation takes work, but we do it anchored in the grace and goodness of God. Let's let Jesus into our deep places to do what He paid for in our lives.

You Are Whole, But Still Human: The Ultra-Marathon of Discipleship | Pillar Series

Real growth rarely happens in our comfort zones; it happens in the tension between the perfect reality of Heaven and our present human experience.

As we launch into our "Grow" series, we are reminded that following Jesus is not a sprint, nor even a marathon—it's an ultra-marathon. True discipleship requires us to hold a beautiful, often uncomfortable tension: we are fully made new in the spirit, yet our minds, wills, and emotions are still on an intense journey of sanctification.

In this message, Dan invites our Bethel Atlanta family into the deep work of emotional fitness and character development. We cannot simply broadcast our supernatural victories while hiding our very real shortcomings. When we embrace the vital keys of humility, self-awareness, and the acceptance of our imperfections, we begin to build a true culture of honor. This is a culture where we are safe enough to be seen in our humanity, while our family relentlessly calls out the gold and the glory God placed within us.

Join us as we explore what it means to heal ourselves as a body , confront the mindsets keeping us stuck , and intentionally grow into the full measure and stature of Christ.

In this message, we cover:

• The Long Game of Discipleship: Why spiritual formation requires us to pace ourselves and embrace the painful but necessary friction of growth.
• The Body Healing Itself: The Ephesians 4 mandate that we are not just called to minister to the world, but to actively participate in the healing and building up of our own spiritual family.
• Three Keys to Transformation: Why humility , self-awareness , and acceptance are non-negotiable for anyone who wants to become a mature leader.

The Practice of Family: Radical Honesty & Real Connection | Pillar Series

God designed us for real connection, but stepping into authentic relationships often means risking pain and navigating friction. In a culture of loneliness, the world is hungry for a people who know how to love without conditions and stay connected through conflict. This isn't just a concept; it's the actual practice of family.

In the final message of our Family Pillar series, Dan Weber invites us to look at the perfect theology of Jesus as a Father and a Friend. From creating safe spaces for radical honesty to learning how to reconcile instead of run, Dan challenges us to move past superficial interactions and take ownership of our relationships. Even when we bring our flawed human nature into the room, we have a Father who disciples us into whole, healthy connection.

Join us as we explore what it looks like to be found, formed, and sharpened in the family of God.

The Courage to Be Known: Friendship, The Holy Spirit, and Mental Fitness | Paul Manwaring

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.

Making Room for the Mess: A Supernatural Family | Pillar Series

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.

Found and Formed: The Art of Showing Up | Pillar Series

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: Tuning in to the Frequency of Heaven | Pillar Series

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.

In this message from the second part of our Pillar series, Dan dives deep into what it means to truly be a supernatural people. We are reminded that because the Spirit of God resides in us, we operate from a superior reality. You aren't just a spectator; the five-fold ministry exists to equip you for the work of the ministry. We are called to take ownership of our impact, stepping out to heal the sick, bring comfort to the brokenhearted, and destroy the works of the enemy in our everyday lives. Whether you are stepping into your neighborhood, your workplace, or the local grocery store, you carry the Holy Spirit and the power to restore hope.
