Adult Discipleship

About

At the Bridge, we believe that following Jesus is an on-going, communal journey of learning to love God, ourselves, and others better.
We are committed to helping each other take a next step closer to God, ourselves, and others throughout the different seasons of our life.

How we facilitate Discipleship

Through our Sunday morning worship services. We are working to make our time together as formational as possible: offering ways to grow closer to God and others through studying scripture, practicing confession, observing the sacraments, and engaging in embodied worship in a variety of forms. We then offer a supplemental podcast about the sermon passages and a set of reflection questions to help you engaging with God throughout the week.

We offer a number of small groups, class experiences, and retreats to help you connect with a smaller group of people, study scripture, and encourage and pray for each other.

We believe that we grow in our love for God and others as we use our gifts together to serve each other and the world. There are a number of opportunities to use your gifts to serve this church and our neighbors.
