Bethel University students worship during chapel service, Wednesday Sept. 25, 2024. The “Come and See” Chapel series is a deep dive into the Gospel of John, beckoning students to experience the fullness of the Lord. “For the first time, at Bethel, the entire community is studying the Gospel of John. We’re doing the same thing, talking the same language, pursuing and asking to hear from God using the same content. It unifies our campus in a unique and neat way,” campus pastor, Nick Cocalis, said.

Junior defensive back Matt Jung returns his nation leading sixth interception during the second quarter of the Royals 73-8 win over Augsburg University on Saturday Oct. 22. Jung currently leads the Royals in tackles (27) and interceptions (7) in 2024. “I definitely could say I’m more of a leader this year,” Jung said. “I feel like guys listen to me more now, after I’ve been here a whole season. But at the same time everyone’s making plays.”
