Then Jesus told his disciples, "If
anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and
take up his cross and follow me. (25) For whoever would
save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life
for my sake will find it. (26) For what will it profit a
man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul?
Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? (27)
For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in
the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each
person according to what he has done.
-- Matthew 16:24-27

Sr. Pastor Brooke Taylor
Welcome to the website for Bethel
Baptist Church in Independence. It is my joy to
serve as the Senior Pastor and to help lead our
congregation in having a passion for the Glory
of God, having a passion for being servants and
followers of Jesus Christ and having a passion
for telling others about the message and hope of
the gospel.
Sunday Night Small Groups
Beginning January 4, 2009 at 6:00 p.m.
There will be three special video studies:
War of Words - with Pastor Brooke- a look at
our words, the way we use them, and how they are
affected by the presence of the Holy Spirit in
our lives; Proclaim - with Pastor Kent -
Personal Evangelism is like the “unknown” and we
are often scared of it. But we don’t have to be.
This study will help you understand what
evangelism is, how to do it Biblically, and why
we are to be doing it as citizens of the
Kingdom; and Blazing Center - with Pastor
Matthias - everything revolves around God. God
is loving, not conceited, when he
calls us to worship Him. His pursuit of glory
and our pursuit of joy are not at odds–because
God is most glorified in us when we are most
satisfied in Him (John Piper). Come and get to
know each other better as we learn more about
our Savior. Sign up at the Welcome Center today
so we can have enough books and materials for
each person.
