LEAD MEMBERS IN ALL CHRISTIAN DENOMINATIONS INTO A DISCIPLINED STUDY OF THE SCRIPTURES. THE BETHEL SERIES LESSON MATERIALS ARE THE TOOL USED TO PROVIDE AN ENCOUNTER WITH THE CHRIST OF THE SCRIPTURES. SPIRITUAL LIFE IS ENHANCED; LIVES ARE CHANGED; AND THE PARTICIPANTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO SEE THE BLESSINGS THEY HAVE RECEIVED IN ORDER TO BE A BLESSING IN THE WORLD TODAY.
THE ACEF HAS BUT ONE PROGRAM - THE BETHEL SERIES. OUR RECORDS SHOW THAT THROUGH THE YEARS, THIS TOOL DESIGNED TO HELP CHURCH MEMBERS GAIN A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE BIBLICAL MESSAGE HAS BEEN USED BY ALMOST 7,000 CHURCHES. THE BETHEL SERIES HAS SUCCESSFULLY CROSSED THE DENOMINATIONAL BARRIER AND HAS SERVED 47 CHRISTIAN DENOMINATIONS AND HAS ENROLLED CONGREGATIONS IN EVERY STATE OF THE USA. WITH THAT NUMBER OF CHURCHES AND IN THAT NUMBER OF DENOMINATIONS, THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PEOPLE REACHED IS FAR OVER A MILLION.THE ACEF OFFERS TRAINING SEMINARS TO TEACH NOT ONLY THE MATERIAL, BUT THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE BETHEL SERIES. A GROUP OF 10 PASTORS AND LAY LEADERS ATTENDED THE JULY 21-25, 2019, SEMINAR HELD IN MADISON, WISCONSIN. WITH THE TRAINING THEY RECEIVE, THE PARTICIPANTS ARE EQUIPPED TO RETURN TO THEIR CHURCHES TO ENGAGE THEIR CONGREGATIONAL MEMBERS IN MEANINGFUL, ONGOING BIBLICAL STUDY. ADDITIONALLY, ACEF ORGANIZED A BETHEL SERIES NEW TESTAMENT TRAINING SEMINAR IN KISUMU, KENYA, FOR KENYAN PASTORS AND LAY PEOPLE IN JANAURY 14-18, 2019 IN WHICH 194 KENYAN PASTORS AND LAY LEADERS WERE TRAINED.THE INITIAL TRAINING IN THE CONGREGATION IS OFFERED TO A SELECT CADRE OF LAY PEOPLE WHO AGREE TO A DISCIPLESHIP PROGRAM THAT INVOLVES AN INTENSIVE, DISCIPLINED TWO-YEAR STUDY. THIS SMALL GROUP OF "DISCIPLES" IS PREPARED TO FULFILL A VARIETY OF LEADERSHIP ROLES IN THE CHURCH, BUT IS ESPECIALLY TRAINED TO TEACH THE BETHEL SERIES IN THE NEXT STEP OF THE PROGRAM-THE CONGREGATIONAL PHASE. THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, LESSON MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES ARE SOLD TO CONGREGATIONS ENROLLED IN THE BETHEL SERIES.
