Pastor Nate’s Mission Moment this week looks back on a full year of ministry at Bethany.

The short version? God has been busy around here.

From worship and livestreams to meals, mission drives, rice and beans, Sunday coffee, faith formation, and all the little moments that don’t fit neatly into a recap — this year mattered.

Thank you for showing up, serving, giving, praying, and being part of what God is doing at Bethany.

What does it mean to believe someone when their pain, illness, or disability is not visible?
In this episode of Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate talks with Wayne Connell from the Invisible Disabilities Association about chronic illness, suffering, faith, and what real compassion looks like.
This conversation is a reminder that people are not problems to solve. They are people to love.
And sometimes love looks like listening. Believing. Sitting in the ashes. Making the call. Showing up again.

What does it mean to believe someone when their pain, illness, or disability is not visible?
In this episode of Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate talks with Wayne Connell about invisible disabilities, chronic illness, and why “but you look good” is not the compliment people think it is.
Sometimes compassion starts with not dismissing what someone has finally trusted you enough to say.

What if the story of Moses and the burning bush is not about being brave?

In this episode of Sunday School Remix, Pastor Nate looks at Exodus 3 and 4 and reminds us that Moses was not exactly eager to be called.

He had questions.
He had doubts.
He had real limitations.
And God still called him.

The question God asks Moses is simple: “What is in your hands?”

Maybe that is a good question for us too.

What gifts, stories, relationships, skills, or experiences has God already given you?

In this episode of Sunday School Remix, Pastor Nate looks at one of the most human questions in the Moses story:
“What if people don’t believe me?”

God does not hand Moses a five-step confidence plan.
God asks, “What is in your hands?”

Start there.
Not with the thing you wish you had.

Not with the version of yourself you think would be more qualified.

Start with what God has already given you.
That may be where the calling begins.

In this episode of Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate talks with Julie Hutchinson about resilience, neuroscience, faith, and what it means to lead from the heart instead of reacting from stress.

Some of us are not just stressed. We are used to being stressed. Our bodies start treating urgency like fuel, and then we wonder why peace feels uncomfortable.

But we were not created to live in survival mode.
Maybe grace meets us in the pause before the reaction.

In this episode of Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate talks with Julie Hutchinson about resilience, neuroscience, faith, and what it means to lead from the heart instead of reacting from stress.
AI can think fast.

But it cannot love. It cannot grieve. It cannot carry compassion. It cannot sit with someone in their suffering.

This conversation asks what becomes even more important in a world where machines can think, but only humans can connect heart to heart.
