We are called to love well and pursue God’s presence. When we do, the miraculous follows, and Jesus gets all the glory. Pastor Banning Liebscher and Richard Gordon, Chief Technology Officer at Bethel Church and Spiritual Director at Bethel School of Technology, have a thought-provoking conversation about why it’s important to test and highlight what’s truly of the Lord. They share how credibility builds integrity, and when miracles are handled with care, they elevate Jesus, not the person or the moment.

In a time where everything is livestreamed, posted, and performed, Pastor Banning and Kalley Heiligenthal—worship leader, songwriter, and pastor—challenge us to ask: If our gift never multiplies or reaches a crowd but simply brings joy to God… can that be enough? In a world obsessed with visibility, this episode is a reminder that who we are matters more than what we produce.
