Get Connected, Stay Connected

Ever since opening day in the fall of 2003, Life Bridge has been a church that strives to imagine life differently and empower people to walk together with God.  Being the church is more about listening to and following God rather than listening to and following a human leader.  Pursuing this "decentralized" model has created confusion for more than one person as they've walked in the door for the first time.

Often times, they will ask to speak to "the pastor" so they can be "in the know" about the many happenings that are going on around the church.  When they find out that I don't know everything that's going on (it usually takes about 30 seconds), they really don't know what to do.  "How can I know what's going on," they wonder.  "How can I get and stay connected?"

Communicate with God

Communicating with God is foundational to learning how to walk with Him.  As with any relationship, communication is key.  When we communicate with Him, we learn more about Him and where He's coming from.  We also find ourselves seeing the world around us more and more through His eyes.  This empowers us to walk with God.

At Life Bridge, several vehicles are available to open communication lines between you and God.  They include, but are not limited to, the following.

Communicate with People

We cannot love our neighbor as ourselves unless we make some kind of connection with our neighbor.  Part of our walk together with God is the walk together with one another.  Life Bridge provides several venues to help you build that walk together, building up the Body of Christ.
