March 22 | New Series "Easter in the Psalms" at 10:30 AM
Easter is the culmination of God's work of redemption for His people. Sometimes we can take Jesus's death and resurrection as an isolated event, something new God is doing that is not truly connected to what has come before or to the narrative of the Old Testament. But as Jesus goes to the cross in His final week, the connections and images from the Old Testament are evident. On Palm Sunday, as Jeus enters the city, the people cry out from Psalm 118. On the cross, Jesus cries out from Psalm 22. Then Psalm 30 reminds u s that although weeping may come at night, joy comes in the morning. This Easter we are going to experience the story of Easter through the Psalms as we prepare our hearts for Jesus's arrival, experience His death on the cross, and celebrate that Jesus turns our mourning into dancing.
So if you are in search of refuge and rest.
If you feel like the world is crashing in on you.
If you are looking for hope.
Come and hear how Jesus rescues, redeems, and brings salvation.

Easter Offering
Part of preparing our hearts for Easter is sacrificial giving, as a tangible practice of remembering all that Jesus gave for us on the cross. This year we are hoping to raise about $11,000 through our Easter offering, which will go to support special mission projects in San Diego, Honduras, Mexico, and Kenya. Giving beyond the $11,000 will help a missionary family in East Asia establish permanent residency in order to remain on the mission field long term. We invite you to give above and beyond your regular giving to the Easter Fund, which will be open from February 22—Sunday, April 5. Thank you for your generosity as we help missionaries share the good news of the Gospel around the world.
You can give to the Easter Fund in the following ways:
- Use the envelope in the service and mark it “Easter”
- Text2Give by texting “Give $(amt) to Easter” to (855) 596-4954.
- Give online at bethanylb.churchcenter.com/giving and use the pull down menu “Easter.”
