Sean Feucht Shares A Moving Tribute to the Late Beni Johnson
Bethel Church's co-senior pastor Beni Johnson has died on July 13th after a bout with cancer. She was 67 years-old. Bethel Church is a megachurch in Redding, California with over 11,000 members. The church has its own music labels, Bethel Music and Jesus Culture ministries, which have gained popularity for contemporary worship music.
Christian worship leader and songwriter Sean Feucht has taken the time to pen a moving tribute to Beni Johnson.
"There was no one like Beni Johnson. She was one of the first to reach out to me when my father passed away and invited me to Bethel for healing and encouragement (and offered to pay our way).
"Years later, she was the first to come to my house the day I arrived into Redding all the way from Pennsylvania. We were unpacking in the 110 degree July heat and nervous as we just just moved across the country to a strange little town in California. I was literally sweating unlike ever before while second-guessing my decision when look who pulls into our driveway.
"Right on time...Beni showed up.
"She welcomed us with her reassuring voice, gave us a basket of all her organic goodies (of course) and prayed this powerful statement over my family: `We receive you. You're home now.' That moment changed everything for us. Then this moment happened again when I ran for Congress and again when we launched `Let Us Worship.' She always showed up...right on time.
"Beni was a happy intercessor, a kind encourager to everyone who met her and loyal friend who always believed the best. Thousands all over the world have had moments just like mine. We celebrate her life today and honor her legacy."
