Bethany Welcomes Rev. Jimmie Hawkins

On Sunday, September 15, Bethany welcomed Rev. Jimmie Hawkins, Director of the Office of Public Witness in Washington D.C. Rev. Hawkins was in Columbus for a four-day visit to the Presbytery of Scioto Valley. Bethany was part of the tour.
As guest preacher, Rev. Hawkins lifted up two passages in the Book of Matthew — 4: 23 and 9: 25. These passages remind worshipers that God is still on the throne. As Christians we are still required to preach the good news and proclaim the goodness of God.
Following a fellowship lunch, Rev. Hawkins participated in a Q & A.
