Purpose

The Bridge is a home congregation with the seven-fold purpose of:

  • Being an embassy that reflects all of heaven's authority on the earth.
  • Walking as ambassadors in the freedom and truth of Jesus and His kingdom.
  • Believing that where two or three are gathered in His name that He is there in the midst of us with His supernatural wisdom.
  • Serving as a dedicated model and resource for others who are forming home congregations.
  • Building a bridge by supporting the persecuted church.
  • Building a bridge by praying for and supporting Israel.
  • Building a bridge by bringing Christ's salvation and healing to our local community.

Beliefs


  • We believe that in faith, UNITY, in opinions, LIBERTY, and in all things, LOVE.


  • We believe that God is the Creator and Ruler of the universe.  He exists in three personalities:  the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.


  • We believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for sins, was raised from the dead on the third day and is coming again.


  • We believe that the Holy Spirit is present in every Christian from the moment of salvation.  He provides us with power for living, understanding of spiritual truth, and guidance in doing right.


  • We believe that salvation is only by grace through faith leading to repentance, confession, and baptism into Christ.


  • We believe that the Bible is the all-inspired, infallible Word of God; our guide in matters of faith and conduct.


  • We believe that spiritual gifts are given by the Holy Spirit to every Christian to be used in the Body of Christ.
