Bethel and Fellow Believers Beneath the Bridge: Thousands Flock to Sundial Bridge to Worship During a Pandemic

By Doni Chamberlain  A NewsCafe 

"Approaching the Sundial Bridge in Redding last night, the first indication that something big was happening was the sight of vehicles; hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of them. Parked cars, trucks, vans, bikes and Segways 

covered all available asphalt, parking lots and dirt areas around the Redding Civic Auditorium, the Sundial Bridge/Turtle Bay, the Sheraton Hotel, and even the Redding Rodeo grounds.

Those who couldn’t find parking along Auditorium Drive parked along Park Marina Drive and walked across the freeway overpass, carrying folding chairs and children, as if heading for Redding’s annual Freedom Festival fireworks show.

Of course, this year, because of the pandemic, the Civic Auditorium grounds were off limits for watching the annual fireworks display. Strangely, however, last night in Redding 

the pandemic didn’t interfere with a Bethel Church-related event that drew thousands of people from not just the North State, but from far outside Shasta County’s borders."

‘Know Jesus, No Mask’: How a Charismatic Worship Leader Bamboozled His Way to the Sundial Bridge

By Doni Chamberlain - A NewsCafe

"At the Sundial Bridge in Redding, thousands of fundamentalist Christians crammed, jammed and sang together in defiance of public health orders that especially ban large gatherings during the pandemic. Social distancing was nonexistent by participants at the Sundial Bridge, 

and the number of people spotted wearing masks could be counted on two hands.

While the amphitheater was officially ground zero for Feucht’s “Let Us Worship” gala, that area quickly proved too small for the jam-packed, fabric-waving, hand-raising celebrants who shouted — JESUS! — as they danced and swayed to the amplified Christian worship music that could be heard for miles around.

In the days following the event, once again, news stories and videos gave the world a glimpse of the second time within two months when the North State was ridiculed 

for openly defying public health guidelines during a pandemic.

Of course, there were plenty of people in Feucht’s camp hailing him for his bravery as a hero, cheering him on, praising him as a modern-day martyr for his willful 

disobedience of governor’s orders, in the name of Jesus.

While many Reddingites may have felt shocked and outraged at what they viewed as “Let Us Worship” organizers’ reckless and irresponsible actions during a public-health crisis, there’s some consolation in knowing that Redding is not the only city to experience Bethel Church Worship Leader Feucht’s faith-based mob scene."

Bethel Church and Joels Army

Joel's Army is a spiritual warfare movement based on Joel 2:1-2

Dominionism is also known as the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), Joel's Army or the Seven Mountains Mandate

New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is a dominionist movement that also goes by names like Third Wave, Seven Mountains, Latter Rain, Kingdom Now, Joel’s Army, Manifest Sons of God, Charismatic Renewal,etc...

Dominionism is a movement that began in the 1970s with Calvinist roots, teaching that the Biblical admonition for Christians to 'take dominion' over all the earth includes taking dominion over civil government and law, and that civil law should be based on Biblical teachings.

Of course the Seven Mountain Mandate requires an army, Joels army. |
“Joel’s Army” sees itself as soldiers that God is raising up during the last days
to perform miracles, execute judgment, and take dominion on earth before Christ returns.


A leader of the dominionists, Rick Joyner, has authored a book called The Final Quest
based on his dreams and visions which describe the militant and violent takeover
(he terms this the coming "civil war") of other Christians
(namely, the ones that read the Bible and think for themselves) and civil society.

Young children will cast out demons, heal the sick, raise the dead, and divert raging floods with a word. Some will actually take dominion over entire hospitals and mental institutions, healing every patient in them by laying hands on the buildings” I have personally heard a delusional Bethel devote lay hands one night on the Coroners building trying to raise the dead inside and heard "rustling noises inside."

How nuts is the Bethel New Apostolic Reformation?
