Vision
For several years Wooddale Church in Eden Prairie hosted a pastors’ con-ference called Next Church. It was an excellent opportunity for pastors to gather and ex-plore the changing nature of the church. A theme verse for that conference was 1 Chroni-cles 12:32. “men of Issachar, who understood the times and knew what Israel should do--200 chiefs, with all their relatives under their com-mand; “ The context for that verse is David’s struggle against King Saul. Samuel had anointed David as the next king of Israel, but Saul was still on the throne and he wasn’t about to give it up. He pursued David with the intent of eliminating the competi-tion. Along the way David began to accumulate an army of his own. A ragtag band of warriors from every tribe of Israel found their way to David’s side. 1 Chronicles 12 catalogues each group who cast their lot with David. Among them was a small group of leaders from the tribe of Issachar. This small group stands out from the rest. All the other groups are described in military terms, but the men of Issachar were men of discernment. They understood the times and knew what Israel should do.
Leith Anderson, the Senior Pastor of Wooddale, picked this verse because it speaks to the need for discern-ing leadership today. The world in which we live contin-ues to change at light speed. Richard Swenson in his book Margins makes the point that more change has taken place in our world since 1900 than all the years before that time combined. We live in a time of unprecedented change. The question is, will the church adjust or be left behind? If the church is going to be a trans-forming influence in today’s world then it needs people who understand the times and know what to do. Jim Collins in his book How the Mighty Fall highlights two important con-cepts for being vibrant in our ever changing world. We must never let go of our core values and we must be willing to change. If we fail to imple-ment either one of these im-peratives we will plunge down the path of decline and irrele-vance. There are certain theological beliefs that we will never compromise as a church: the deity of Christ, the authority of the Bible, salvation by grace through faith alone, etc. These are the foundational bedrock of our
faith. Overlying these we have three core values that guide us on our journey. I want to take a look at each of these core values. First, we are commit-ted to connecting with God and with others. When Jesus was asked what the greatest commandment was he re-sponded by saying love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. Our first responsibility as a church is to help one another enter into a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ and connect with the larger body of Christ. The strategies we use to accomplish this need to be flexible. As we begin a new year we want to actively find more and more ways to con-nect people to God and (Continued on page 14)

Page 3 Vision
All adults at Bethel (and your neighbors and friends too) are greatly en-
couraged to get into a small group early in 2011. Groups will begin meeting around January 30 and will basically meet every other week until Easter (April 24).This will be a total of six or seven times together interacting around a topic of Biblical truth and life reality.
Group hosts will be choosing the material that the group will use as a focus. Some groups will discuss Sunday sermons, some a book of the Bible, and some will use another book or DVD teaching as a resource. This will be a great blessing and encouragement in our journey of faith. Some groups may choose to meet more often for fun, food and serving others, but that will be up to each group. There currently is a display of small group curriculum re-sources in classroom #13. These are materials that we have on hand and so would not incur much expense.
Hosts, please get your group information (location, time, focus of the group) to the church office and/or Christian Kohs or Pastor Bruce by Wed. Jan. 5.
If you are interested in being part of a particular group, please sign up at church or on the church web site and/or give the host a call. Be watching January Sunday bulletins and the church website for notices regarding the small groups.
If you have questions or ideas about small groups, please e-mail or call

Wow, 2010 is almost history and we have things to celebrate from this past year as well as challenges that we had to deal with or still are dealing with. How are you doing, how am I doing, and what are we look-ing forward to in this New Year?
Jesus says in Luke 10:27 that we are to “„Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind‟ and, Love your neighbor as yourself.” Many of us may struggle with loving ourselves or even that idea. I know growing up in the church I was always taught to “put others first.” This is a great teaching yet if we are out of balance, this can cost us dearly. When Jesus made this proclamation, He would have intended all of us to have a healthy “love” for our-selves. Note Jesus didn’t say hate your neighbor like you neglect and hate yourself. If we do not have a healthy love for ourselves we will struggle in our attempts to love and worship God as well as loving our neighbors and loving one another. I am convinced that we will better love God and those around us if we have a strong healthy love for ourselves. I would take this one step further and say that if I do not love myself the right way, it will negatively impact all the people in my life.
How do I evaluate this healthy love for myself in my own life, where do I even begin? What does honest and “real” self evaluation look like? Please seriously consider the questions listed below. We all need to be challenged and seek what the Holy Spirit may be asking us to do. This challenge is not intended to bring guilt upon anyone. The Lord wants us to be healthy and I am asking myself these same questions with an attitude that says Lord help me be the healthy person (heart, soul, strength and mind) that you want me to be!
Here are the questions we can all ask ourselves as we think about the New Year ahead:
Is my soul, body and mind healthy? Do I have a healthy love for myself?
Is my personal relationship with the Lord vibrant, strong and growing?
Are my relationships at home, school, work, church and my family healthy?
How I am doing relationally with those closest to me, spouse, parent, child etc…?
Do I have a plan to address what I need to do this New Year in areas of my life (negative habits, health issues etc…) that I always seem to struggle getting motivated to do?
Financially, is my budget in place, or is this just another area in which I don’t know where to turn, may feel overwhelmed, and need help with?
Do I have great hope and great expectations for the New Year?
Do the Joy and Peace of Christ live and reign in me today?
Am I willing to allow the Lord to help me with some tough conversations with people that I really don’t want to have?
If we have answered no to some or many of these questions, this may be the beginning of the Lord work-ing in us through the power of His Holy Spirit to renew our worship and transform us into the people He wants us to be.
And now for the final questions that matter most:
If I struggle in any of the areas listed above, will I go to someone or seek out a resource and ask for help? Who or what will that be and when will I do it? What is my plan of action, what adjustments or changes will I make in my life this New Year?
I am excited about the year ahead here at Bethel. I also continue to look forward to more people seeking to be a part of the worship and musical opportunities here at Bethel this year. Through all of this may we reach many more people for Jesus and see lives changed by our Lord forever.
God’s richest blessings to all of you this Christmas and for the New Year!

Who can you bring to church this month?!
Film and Theology is beginning at Bethel in
January! We are going to go to the theater
and then head back to church for some
pizza and discussion. Join us!
Let me know what movies may be of inter-
est for us to see as our first one, I have a
couple in mind, but feel free to email sug-
gestions to me at:
Christ. . . For each will have to bear his own load.” At first glance, this Scripture passage seems contradictory but it is not. It says that everyone, by himself or herself alone, should carry whatever load God has placed in his or her backpack. It also says that Christians should take some burdens out of the backpacks of some people and put them in their own packs and carry them out of love. That same love that Christ pours on us! Biblically, this looks like finding a job, paying the bills, reading the Bible, at-tending church, praying, sharing their faith, exercising, and look after themselves and their spouse and children if applicable.
The church exists in part to help lessen their burden by taking some of the practical weight out of people’s pack and carrying it for them, some people that truly need it. One key to our loving others is discerning what loads others are having to carry and what burdens we need to help them carry. Are you someone who is expecting too much time and energy from the leaders in church? Which loads do you need to just buck up and carry without whining until someone else does your job? How have you allowed concerns to become responsi-bilities and others’ loads to collectively be-come your burden? Find rest in Christ, He has promised to help us carry all that is in our backpacks.
Matthew 11:28-30
“Come to me, all you who are weary and bur-
dened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke
upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and
humble in heart, and you will find rest for
your souls. For my yoke is easy and my bur-
den is light.”
How Full is Your Backpack?
One of the most important skills every Chris-tian, and ministry leader must learn is the distinction between a concern and a respon-sibility. The younger the Christian, the more likely you lack the skill of discerning concerns and responsibilities. I was recently reminded of this important distinction when I read the book Leading on Empty by Wayne Cordeiro. As a Christian, we should lovingly and sin-cerely have concern for many people and their many circumstances. Our hearts should ache for the pain and trouble that others ex-perience in life. This concern should compel us to speak gospel truths into their life, which can include everything from pointing out sins, to giving wise counsel, or interceding for them before God in prayer. As created be-ings, there is only so much we can do and we must discern whom God has called us to help and how God has called us to help them carry the load.
Picture that everyone has a backpack with responsibilities that God has given for him or her to carry. Some people’s backpacks are big, and others are small. Nonetheless, God has called us each to fill up our pack with specific responsibilities. Some people may be lazy and try to take things out of their pack and get others to carry them instead. An example is the able-bodied man who lives with his mom, making her responsible for his housing and food, while he sits in his room and plays video games. Tragically, for many, the whole definition of someone being loving, Godly, and spiritual is that they are willing to carry the loads God has called oth-ers to carry. This is not helping them.
Scripture, of course, says it perfectly. Gala-tians 6:2–5 admonishes us, “Bear one an-other’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of
“As created beings, there is
only so much we can do
and we must discern
whom God has called us
to help and how God has
called us to help them
carry the load.”

Missionaries of the Month - Dave & Amy Stene
Dave and Amy Stene are staff members with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. They worked in Mankato at MSUM for a number of years and now live and work in Sioux Falls, SD. Dave and Amy and their 3 boys--Caleb(11), Isaiah(9), and Noah(4)--were an active part of our Bethel church family while here in Mankato. In Sioux Falls, Dave also attends seminary part-time and is a part-time pastor at a Covenant church.
InterVarsity Christian Fellowship (IVCF) is an interdenominational campus ministry that works on over 500 campuses (with over 30,000 college students) across the U.S. An InterVarsity group seeks to "empower Christian students to influence their friends for Jesus and to offer a place for non Christians to explore faith in Christ." They do this through small group discussions, large groups meetings and outreach events, and vari-ous conferences throughout the year.
Dave, along with a staff partner, have been working with students from the University of Sioux Falls, Augustana College and Dakota State University, as well as some students from Madison, SD. They encourage and guide the small group leaders and the leader-ship teams for each campus. They have recently helped with student conferences in September and in November.

accomplished must be shaped and molded to fit the environ-ment in which we live. This year we will continue to offer opportunities for people to become better equipped through things like the Lead-ership Summit, small groups, and training opportunities. Third, we are com-mitted to engaging in mean-ingful service for Christ. Giv-ing feet to our faith is an es-sential component of being a follower of Jesus. Jesus set the example and he expects us to f o l l o w . “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." Mark 10:45 (NIV) There are many ways in which we can serve. Genuine service is not a
others. We can do this through small groups, “YES” experiences, fellowship times, and many other ways. Second, we are com-mitted to equipping people to live godly lives. In Eph. 4:11-13 Paul writes this. It was he who gave some to be apos-tles , some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teach-ers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attain-ing to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. A core value of the church is to equip people to live out their faith in their world. The way this is
one-size-fits-all experience. We need to explore creative ways to use the gifts and talents God has given us both inside of the church and out in our community. This year we will be exploring some new ave-nues through which we can reach out to our community on a regular basis. We should never abandon meeting together for worship on Sundays, but that alone is not enough. As the body of Christ we need to find new and creative ways to reach out to those who have not yet begun their journey of faith. Let’s commit ourselves to being like the men of Issa-char who understood the times and knew what should be done.
