I’ve attended Bent Tree for over 15 years and since the COVID watched the service on my computer. Great teachers, all the pastors.

Very nicely done. I will be using this to catch up on what I've missed and reference sermons of particular interest. I also really like how you can download worship. I only have 2 requests for future updates: 1. I can't get the sermon videos to view in landscape mode. 2. Could there be a link to a calendar? We are always wondering if certain things (like FX Live) are happening this week.

Bent Tree pastors are experts at BITE control (look up Steven Hassan’s BITE model). I can give 3 examples of different pastors using BITE control. 1. Former Pastor Amy told me it would be a sin to leave Bent Tree to find a different church closer to where I live. 2. I reported this to Pastor Ken, who promptly ghosted me and never spoke to me again. 3. I reported Pastor Ken to Pastor Steve, who blocked me from talking to Ken and told me Ken wanted to pass along a message of “I am genuinely sorry that you are hurt, and I am sorry for our miscommunication”. Two things are wrong with that: first, why couldn’t Pastor Ken directly say that to me? Second, that’s a textbook narcissistic apology.
