Rev. Bethany Benz-Whittington’s curriculum is well prepared, insightful, and engaging. For our campus ministry, she made the lessons accessible for our college students as well as thought-provoking. It was a huge benefit to us that we could simply enjoy the conversation without having to prepare the lessons ourselves.

As a solo pastor, sometimes it's hard to be able to do all the things.  I reached out to Bethany and she offered holding an Advent Christian Ed class geared towards Adults via Zoom.  The class was amazing!  I still hear from parishioners who took the class thinking and considering things that she taught about the bible, traditions, and the intersections with modern day life.  As a pastor I was grateful to be able to hand this off to someone who specializes in Christian Ed and Spiritual Formation and know that I would not have to worry about what was being taught, because Bethany brings a high level of personality, information, and accessibility to those who attend.  I would recommend her without hesitation to lead your next study and bring a new perspective to your congregation!!!

Last Advent season, I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate in Rev. Bethany's class on “Mary, the Mother of God.” We explored the character of Mary in the Gospels and the various ways both believers and non-believers have viewed Mary over the years. Rev. Bethany has a tremendous knowledge base and she raises some very intriguing questions and points of view for class members to think about and discuss. I appreciated the chance to expand my understanding of my faith!
