SAY THAT AGAIN with Pastor Jason https://SayThatAgain.podbean.com

Jason Britt has been the Lead Pastor of Bethlehem Church in Winder, GA since 2011. His heart, along with the heart of Bethlehem Church, is to lead people to discover new life in Christ.  There are certain things Pastor Jason says during his weekly sermons that deserve to be discussed in greater depth - and this is the space to do it. Twice a month, we'll join Pastor Jason as he unpacks the implications and applications of the Scripture he preaches during a weekend at Bethlehem Church. The reality is that all of us are being discipled by something - our culture, our society, the people around us. We want to be discipled by Truth.

If you’ve ever felt like your faith was more of a "family heirloom" or a "holiday-only" tradition, this episode is a refreshing invitation to move from just attending a service to experiencing a living, breathing relationship with Christ.

The trio pulls back the curtain on their own lives—from Pastor Kevin’s 1980s "Miami Vice" Easter hair to Chevas’s journey from "court clothes" to a life transformed by the gospel. They move past the commercialization of bunnies and baskets to explore what it actually looks like to surrender personal authority to the Lordship of Jesus. Whether you're navigating the historical evidence for the empty tomb or trying to understand how the Resurrection changes your Monday morning, this episode points the way toward an authentic, lasting dependency on the Holy Spirit.

In this episode, we cover:

  • The "CEO" Christian: Why a faith built only on "Christmas, Easter, and Other Crises" misses the beauty of abiding in Christ.
  • Evidence vs. Authority: A look at the historical reliability of the Resurrection and why our biggest hurdle is often Lordship, not logic.
  • The "Unbecoming": How surrendering to Jesus allows us to let go of worldly labels and become who He truly created us to be.
  • Ginosko vs. Oida: Understanding the difference between having information about God and experientially knowing the power of His Resurrection.
  • The Practical Holy Week: Simple, intentional "handles" for families to move past the pomp and circumstance and into true worship.

  • Parenting in the Slang Era: A hilarious look at "clip farming," "rizz," and why trying too hard to be cool actually loses you points with Gen Z.
  • The Sanctification of Fatherhood: Shifting the perspective from "how can I change my kid" to "how is God using my kid to change me?"

EP1: The Holy Spirit: Is it a Force or a Person? https://SayThatAgain.podbean.com/e/ep1-the-holy-spirit-is-it-a-force-or-a-person/ https://SayThatAgain.podbean.com/e/ep1-the-holy-spirit-is-it-a-force-or-a-person/#comments Tue, 03 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0400 SayThatAgain.podbean.com/6202f3b0-6325-3f69-85b0-aacb6bd8b2c0 Welcome to the inaugural episode of "Say That Again with Pastor Jason," a new podcast from Bethlehem Church. In this episode, Pastor Jason Britt is joined by Pastor Jeremy Curtis to dive deeper into the weekend messages and explore what God is doing in our lives mid-week.

Together, they discuss the "Familiar Stranger" series and the often misunderstood role of the Holy Spirit. Is the Holy Spirit just a force to be wielded, or a person to be known? They unpack startling statistics about modern theology, the impact of the "Age of Reason" on our faith, and why the world today values spiritual experience over expertise.

Join the conversation as they tackle current events through a biblical worldview, discuss the reality of spiritual warfare behind cultural issues, and define what true Christian leadership looks like in a chaotic world.

Key Topics & Keywords:
  • Holy Spirit & Theology: Understanding the Spirit as a person, not a force.
  • Faith & Culture: Navigating the "Age of Reason" and a post-truth society.
  • Spiritual Warfare: Identifying the spiritual roots behind modern identity and cultural battles.
  • Leadership: Leading with a non-anxious presence and the Fruit of the Spirit.

His heart, along with the heart of Bethlehem Church, is to lead people to discover new life in Christ.

There are certain things Pastor Jason says during his weekly sermons that deserve to be discussed in greater depth - and this is the space to do it. Twice a month, we'll join Pastor Jason as he unpacks the implications and applications of the Scripture he preaches during a weekend at Bethlehem Church. The reality is that all of us are being discipled by something - our culture, our society, the people around us. We want to be discipled by Truth.
