    Can We Sing Bethel’s Songs?

    Can we separate the song from the source? Does the source of a worship song determine whether we should sing it? In this conversation, Andrew Selley and Mike Davies offer a biblical perspective on the debate around worship music. They illustrate whether believers can sing songs written by artists or movements with questionable theology or practice, and if those songs can compromise our churches. By looking at the impact of online discernment ministries and cancel culture on the body of Christ, we are challenged to respond biblically rather than react culturally.

    Does Worship Draw God’s Presence?

    If God is always present, what is the manifest presence of God? Can God increase His presence in our lives? In this conversation, Andrew Selley and Mike Davies explore the manifest presence of God, His Shekinah glory, and whether believers can receive more of the Holy Spirit. With biblical insight, they unpack the difference between God’s omnipresence and His tangible presence among His people, while exploring worship’s role in drawing near to Him. As God builds His people into a dwelling place for His presence, this discussion calls us to pursue unity, humility, and wholehearted devotion in seeking more of Him.

    United but Different

    Can we find unity in partnership, even in our differences? What does partnership look like between church leaders who are very different? In this candid conversation, Andrew Selley and Jonathan Stanfield open up about the beauty and cost of partnering across culture, personality, and leadership style. In many ways, partnership is like a marriage, so how do we stay united and avoid getting ‘divorced’? They reveal healthy relationship is built – not by always agreeing, but through humility, mutual submission, and keeping Jesus at the centre.

    Dealing With Church Hurt – A Matthew 18 Response

    What the Bible says about our reaction to offence, conflict, and disagreement. Hurt is inevitable when we do life together, and how we respond to offence matters. In this session, Mike Davies reminds us that the Bible doesn’t promise we won’t be hurt; it shows us how to process it well. We must acknowledge the real pain caused, whether by misunderstanding or sin, and remember that not every hurt is the result of abuse. By looking at the instruction given in Matthew 18, we ask how we process our hurts in a way that honours God and builds the church.

    Love, Justice & Perseverance

    What if the God we think we know isn’t who He really is? We must understand God’s true nature for faith that leads to salvation. Andrew Selley asks us whether our understanding of God is genuinely shaped by Scripture or distorted by wrong beliefs. The Bible warns us that a misrepresentation of God’s love can lead to believing a false gospel and following a different Jesus. By embracing God’s foundation of righteousness and justice, we can enjoy His perfect love and escape His wrath. Saving faith is a faith that perseveres and remains in Christ till the end.

    Trial by Media

    God’s process for finding truth vs the court of public opinion. What does a just, biblical process look like for church leaders accused of wrongdoing?

They look at the dangers of modern-day exposés across media channels by unpacking the legal elements of a fair trial.
