SUNDAY MORNING MESSAGE:
Click here for recent Sunday morning
messages from Pastor Dave Swartz.

FROM THE PASTOR:
Credence Clearwater Revival did a tune called "Looking Out My Back Door". It was about trees, grass, squirrels and listening to country music (Buck Owens) on your back porch. It talked about about getting our thoughts back to what matters, what makes sense and what brings peace into our lives. The Bible has those kinds of "back door" places and it's good to visit them more than occasionally in the busyness of our lives and the uncertainty of these times. On Sunday at 11 AM, the screen door will swing open on Psalm 103:2-5 and you're invited.

 

PASTOR'S CORNER

DAVE SWARTZ

For 18 of his 29 years in the ministry, Dave Swartz has served as the pastor of Bethel Baptist Church. When away from the pulpit, Swartz finds enjoyment in speaking to both American and Canadian college groups, filling in as a radio talk show host, traveling with his wife and reading. He also savors the beat of a jazz tune and likes to create intricate balloon sculptures. He and his wife of 33 years, Wandena, have two children – son Steve (wife Anna and daughter Claire) and daughter Karen (husband Matt and children, Ella, Abi, Judah and Shiloh).
