Although all member of the band have been friends for several years the group wasn't officially formed until July of 2008, immediately releasing their first album titled “Intimate Warfare”. Since Bethesda’s conception there has been a lot of buzz in the local community from friends and others alike. Often times in the realm of Christian music there is a lack of creativity but this is not the case with Bethesda. They utilize years of experience, edgy but tasteful music, the flow of creativity and the Spirit of God to create an atmosphere for miracles of salvation, healing and deliverance. God brings people together at different times in history to release a sound and speak to their generation and Bethesda is such a group.
