3/10/24 - Pastor Rob leads us through the first part of 1 Peter, chapter 3. This focuses on wives, but has a wider message regarding marriage and the church.
Genesis 26 - As we start our new series on Jesus, the great shepherd, we first look back to the Old Testament. How does Isaac's encounter with Abimelech impact us? Do you have a relationship with Jesus? As your Great Shepherd, what is He leading you towards and how have you responded?
1 Samuel 4-7 - This special one-off message from Pastor Rob expounds upon a thought Pastor Tim shared over the healing weekend. As we shuffle through Samuel - we see the ups and downs of how the Israelites walked. In our day to day, do we find ourselves glancing at Jesus and gazing at our problems? Or glancing at our circumstances and gazing at Jesus?
Galatians 6:6-18 - Our series in Galatians closes with Pastor Rob gleaning some challenging questions. What stage is your heart in? What fruit needs to mature right now? What needs to happen to bring that about? If you are feeling tired or weary, then what sort of encouragement do you need?
Join us on the fifth Sunday of every month for our special family church gathering at the Bridge Bible Church. Bring the kids up front as Pastor Rob delivers a meaningful message that resonates with everyone. In this episode, explore the timeless wisdom of the Good Samaritan parable.
Galatians 6:1-5 - What does it mean to bear one another's burdens? How do we restore brothers and sisters in Christ in gentleness? What is our motivation and means to do so and who do we do it for? Pastor Rob helps unpacks these words from Paul and how they can help us to become more like Christ.
Galatians 5:13-26 - Guest speaker Pete Ziolkowski joins us for our series in Galatians. Can you float? Or are you sinking/striving? What are you holding onto that keeps you from bearing the fruit of the Spirit? Hop in to be in awe and wonder with us of our amazing Lord Jesus.

We learn the importance of walking in Christ and the dangers of walking in legalism. Pastor Rob also pleads his case for wrestling as the greatest sport since it's the only one in the Bible.
Galatians 4:21-31 - Paul's letter alludes back to the Old Testament and the lives of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar. Are we operating in the light? Who's child are we, a child of the law or a child of grace?

Galatians 4:1-7 - We learn more about our perfect Father and His plans for us. If we are no longer slaves to the world, then we are sons and daughters of our Heavenly Father, heirs through God. Do we live in a way that stops at our eternal salvation? Or do we live like we're in God's beautiful family and Him as our perfect Father?
Galatians 3:15-29 - In Christ, we are brothers and sisters in His family. Do you experience the joy of God? Do you delight in the Lord as much as He delights in you? The prayer today is that we would operate out of the love Christ has for us when we interact with others.
Galatians 3:6-14 - Do you think of yourself only as a servant of the Lord? Or do you think of yourself as a friend of God as well? Answering these questions biblically helps us to operate out of our desires for the Lord rather than our obligation. How does the Holy Spirit operate in you?
Galatians 3:1-5 - Today, we ponder our focus. Whether it's our attitude in church or what we focus on during each day's events. If our focus is on Christ, we won't miss out on what He's doing in each moment and get to partake in the divine nature of Jesus. This focus contrasts our fallen nature, where we tend to focus on ourselves.
Deuteronomy 6:4-7 - This week, we take a break from Galatians to discuss the next generation. What kind of legacy are you leaving? How meaningful is your relationship with the Lord, and how does that impact your relationships with those in your family?
Galatians 2:1-10 - Pastor Rob explicitly defines the gospel. Have you heard it and received it? If so, then go. Go with the fruit of the Spirit, providing what is needed for the poor in spirit and the poor in need, displaying and sharing the Gospel with all those in darkness.
Galatians 1:3-10 - Pastor Rob shows us there is no other gospel. Have you put your hope in a false gospel or something other than the true gospel of Jesus Christ? How can we walk in a manner worthy of this gospel?

Letter to the Ephesians - Mark Beck, from Josiah's Gift, joins us for a recitation of the letter to the Ephesians. At the heart of Josiah's Gift is the belief that all you need to change a life is for a willing heart to encounter the Word of God.

Ephesians 4 - Pastor Rob encourages us with Paul's call for us to walk in a manner worthy, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit. When we walk together under the gospel in unity in Christ, we overcome all the enemy throws at us and reflect Jesus to all those around us watching.
1 Corinthians 15:1-11 - Elder Jim Bucklew urges us all, to keep the main thing (the Gospel), the main thing. Since the dawn of the church, churches have split over lesser things than the Gospel. Jim exhorts us not to get caught up in the weeds as many churches have and still do, but rather focus on the Gospel and find unity in Christ.
At the conclusion of Revelation, we get to see inside the holy city God has created in Heaven. Do you realize God is calling you to be transformed as you go? What are the branches that need pruning in your walk? Where is He growing you to bear fruit? Have you been pretending? Don't miss your chance to repent and be a vessel for the Lord. Christ's invitation to all who are thirsty is to come and drink.
