The Bridge Church is a gospel-centered church in Wilmington, North Carolina that exists to be For Christ, For Community, and For the City.

This Sunday we begin a new season as we look toward Easter. In Mark 2, four friends carry a paralyzed man to Jesus—and when the crowd blocks the door, they climb onto the roof and tear it open just to get their friend to him. Their determination raises an important question for us: Who is the friend God has placed in your life that needs to meet Jesus? As we launch our For the One initiative, we'll discover how ordinary people can play an extraordinary role in helping others encounter Christ. This message will challenge and inspire us to invest in the people around us and boldly invite them to experience the hope of the gospel__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In 2 Samuel 9, we meet Mephibosheth. He's crippled, hiding in a place called "nowhere," carrying a name that means shame, and yet met with unimaginable kindness by King David. But here's the twist: in this story, we are not David. We are Mephibosheth. Join us as we unpack the difference between covenant love and consumer love, and discover how truly feeling the grace God has shown us transforms the way we love others.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Many Christians feel like their faith is meant to be lived out quietly, kept personal, shared sparingly, and expressed mostly on Sundays. But Acts 8 tells a different story. When persecution scattered the early church out of Jerusalem, it wasn't the apostles or professional ministers who spread the gospel—it was ordinary believers who couldn't stop talking about Jesus. In this message, we see that extraordinary change doesn't require extraordinary people. It requires ordinary Christians committed to two things: proclaiming good news and practicing good deeds. When those two things collide in everyday life. __The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

What does it really mean to be a Christian? According to Paul, it's not primarily about behavior, church attendance, or even emotional experiences—it's about having God's Spirit living inside you. In Romans 8, Paul shows that true assurance doesn't come from fleeting feelings but from the reality that we've been given a new identity by the Holy Spirit. To be “led by the Spirit” is not about chasing feelings; it's about living into our new identity as sons and daughters of God. __The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Many people think Christianity is about morality, church attendance, or a certain spiritual feeling—but the Bible says the defining mark of a Christian is far deeper: God Himself lives inside you. In Romans 8, Paul shows that assurance doesn't come from trying harder but from the Holy Spirit taking up permanent residence in the believer. God In You explains how being in Christ gives you a new standing before God, and Christ in you gives you a new power to live. __The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Fear is real, and so are the threats we face. But Psalm 27 reminds us that God is bigger than every fear that tries to rule our hearts and minds. In this message, we'll explore the difference between healthy fear and debilitating fear, uncover what's really driving our anxiety, and learn how faith shifts our focus from what we fear to the God who is our light, salvation, and stronghold. __The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Romans 8 draws us into one of the most powerful chapters in all of Scripture—a chapter about life, freedom, and transformation. To be a Christian is not only to be saved by Jesus, but to be changed by Jesus. The gospel doesn't simply rescue us from sin; it forms us into new people. Following Jesus means learning to walk a new path—a life shaped and empowered by the Spirit of God. Through the gospel, the Holy Spirit gives us a new mindset, because lasting transformation always begins in the mind. As our minds are set on the things of God, we are freed to live the life God intended—a life of growth, holiness, and true freedom in the Spirit.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

As we step into a week of prayer and fasting we wanted to stop and ask "Why Pray?" Pastor Chris Gaynor walks us through the Lord's prayer and explains the importance of prayer while encouraging us to spend time in intentional prayer.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

We're often told to “ask Jesus into your heart,” but the Bible offers something far better. Though sin still clings to us, those who are in Christ are no longer under condemnation because God came to us in Jesus and accomplished what we never could. On the cross, Christ absorbed the penalty of our sin so we could stand forgiven, righteous, and free. Through faith in Christ, you can trust that you are in Christ, which means you can “Stop Asking Jesus In Your Heart.” __The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

As we step into a new year, we're reminded that God designed life to move in seasons. While seasons change automatically, progress does not. In this message, we'll learn from Jesus in Matthew 6 how anxiety grows when we live in the future, and how peace begins when we rightly order today. Jesus invites you to seek God first and trust him with tomorrow.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In this sermon, “Good Me vs. Bad Me,” we explore the inner conflict every believer knows—the gap between wanting to do what's right and repeatedly doing what's wrong. In Romans 7, we find how God's law exposes sin without empowering us to defeat it, revealing a war between the flesh and the Spirit that continues even after salvation. Rather than hiding the struggle, Paul names it honestly and points us toward the only hope for real change—not willpower, but deliverance through Jesus Christ. This sermon reframes sanctification not as instant victory, but as a daily battle where God uses difficulty itself to form us into the likeness of Christ.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Romans 6 reminds us that real change doesn't start with trying harder—it starts with believing what God already says is true about us. Sin doesn't get to call the shots anymore, but we still decide each day where we'll place our hearts, our habits, and our hopes. And when we choose to present ourselves to God, something powerful happens: grace begins to reshape us from the inside out. In Christ, we're not just forgiven—we're set free from sin's old mastery and empowered to live a new kind of life that actually bears the fruit we've always longed for.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In Romans 6, Paul helps us understand this critical truth: in order to change, grow, and experience a gospel-centered life, you must change the way you see yourself. You are no longer defined by what you have done or what has been done to you. You are now in Christ. Your identity is rooted in what Christ has done and what He has done to you. If you can change your thinking, you can transform your living. The old you is gone—crucified with Christ. The new you has come—raised with Christ. So put off the old self and refuse to let it have any claim on you. It's time to start living the new life that is already yours in Him.

If you've ever wondered why Christians make such a big deal about Jesus, Romans 5 gives the answer: everything in your life and eternity depends on Him. Paul shows that we are all born connected to Adam's failure, but through faith we can be transferred into Christ's life-giving victory. This sermon—It's All About Jesus—will show why the gospel is not about what you can do for God, but what Jesus has already done for you.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Romans 5 shows us that justification isn't just a doctrine—it's the turning point that ends our war with God and ushers us into peace, grace, and hope. Beginning with a story of someone still fighting after the battle was over, we'll see how many believers continue striving as if God is still against them. Confidence in Chaos reveals the heart of the gospel: Christ has ended the conflict, credited us with righteousness, and secured a hope that suffering can't shake.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.

Many people spend their lives wondering if they've done enough to be right with God. In Romans 4, Paul shows that salvation has never been about earning or achieving but about believing — the same way Abraham was made righteous. This message, How to Know You're Saved, unpacks how real saving faith rests not on what we do for God but on what Christ has already done for us.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Romans 3:21–26 has been called “the most important sentence in the Bible.” It's been called the hinge on which the gospel turns. In these verses, Paul reveals how God makes unrighteous people righteous, not through rule-keeping but through grace, by faith, in Christ alone. This message exposes the false religion of moralism and celebrates the breathtaking truth that the gospel isn't spelled D-O, it's spelled D-O-N-E.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In Acts 13, the Holy Spirit ignites the church in Antioch to send out its best for the sake of the gospel—because when Jesus transforms your life, you can't stay still. In this sermon, “We Gotta Go,” God calls us to recover that same sending mindset: empowered by the Spirit, proclaiming Jesus, and willing to be uprooted for the nations. And for every Christian, true mission doesn't begin when you cross an ocean—it begins when you cross the street, right where God has placed them.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

What if religion isn't the answer?In this message, Guest Speaker Pastor Chip Robinson walks us through Romans 3 and shows how the gospel isn't a better kind of religion. It's a better kind of rescue.We'll ask things like:• Is God wrong about sin and judgment?• Am I really righteous, or just religiously busy?• If religion fails, what's the advantage to having God's Word?When religion stops being the solution, you begin to see that your starting point isn't “doing more,” but “needing more.”__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In Romans 2, Paul turns the spotlight from the rebellious world to the religious heart, revealing that self-righteousness and the religion of moralism is every bit as deadly as open sin. God isn't after outward religion but inward renewal—a circumcision of the heart by his Spirit. The good news is that where our morality fails, Jesus was “cut off” in our place, so that through him we might be made whole, forgiven, and truly righteous from the inside out.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In Romans 1, Paul describes the sobering reality of God's wrath: when we continually reject Him, He “gives us up” to the very desires we've chosen. That's what happens “When God Lets Go.” Sin is not only punished in the future—it enslaves us in the present. Yet the good news of the gospel is that while we were handed over to sin, Christ willingly handed Himself over to the cross for our rescue. He took our place so we could take his place. This sermon calls us to see both the seriousness of sin and the greater power of God's grace in Christ.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In Romans 1:18–23, Paul reveals a sobering truth: God's wrath is not random but is His holy and loving response to humanity's sin. Though God has clearly made Himself known in creation, we suppress the truth, exchange His glory for idols, and stand without excuse. Yet into this hopeless condition, the gospel breaks in—God not only revealed His righteousness but entered the story Himself, not as Judge alone but as Redeemer. This passage calls us to face our sin honestly and to turn in worship to the only One worthy of it: the Creator who saves.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

The gospel is not just good advice or inspirational words—it is the very power of God to save. InRomans 1:16–17, Paul declares that he is “not ashamed of the gospel,” even though it offendedthe pride, dignity, and comfort of his culture. The same is true today: the gospel still confrontsour self-reliance and challenges the values of the world, yet it offers the only way to true life andrighteousness before God. The gospel may offend, but it is always worth our unashamedconfidence and trust. __The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Rome was the heart of the empire—2,000 miles from Jerusalem—pulsing with culture, power, and pressure. Yet Paul writes to the believers there with deep affection, reminding them they are loved by God, called as saints, and known for a faith that's alive in the very shadow of Caesar. In this passage, we see Paul's vision for the church: to strengthen one another, reap a spiritual harvest, and boldly proclaim the gospel to every person—Greeks and “barbarians,” wise and foolish. The message of Jesus is not just for the outsider but also for those already in the family of faith. Everyone needs the gospel, and everyone has a part in God's mission.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

This message begins a sermon series in the book of Romans. From the get-go, the author, Paul, introduces himself not with his achievements but with his chains—a slave of Jesus. Paul shows us what it means to belong fully to Christ, and discover that real freedom, purpose, and joy are found, not in serving ourselves, but in being bound to Christ and his gospel.__The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In a world full of distractions and divisions, the apostle Paul reminds us that the church's foundation is not performance, personalities, or preferences—but the gospel of Jesus Christ. On this Vision Sunday, we'll see how the power of the cross unites us, fuels our mission, and shapes everything we do as a church. Together, we are resolved to be a people who live, lead, and work “For the Gospel.” __The Bridge Church is a kingdom-centered, multi-ethnic, multigenerational church in the heart of Wilmington, North Carolina.

Money isn't primarily a financial issue - it's a heart issue. Jesus teaches that what we treasure reveals who we truly serve. In a world obsessed with wealth and status, we're called to a better way: kingdom impact. God's vision and desire for our lives is that we would learn how to win with money. In this sermon titled "The Treasure Problem", we'll confront the power money has over us, expose the dangers of divided devotion, and learn how to lay up lasting treasure in heaven.

In a world that's growing more hostile to biblical truth, God's design for marriage still stands as a beautiful picture of Christ and the church. Marriage was never meant to be shaped by culture; it was meant to reflect something far greater - the covenantal, sacrificial love between Christ and his church. In this sermon, Pastor Ethan encourages us to "Fight for Your Marriage."The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In a world where the home is under relentless attack—through distorted views of marriage, fractured family roles, confused parenting, and disregard for the unborn—God's Word calls us to rise and fight for what He designed. *Fight for the Home* is a bold, biblically grounded series that reclaims God's vision for the home as a place of covenant love, spiritual formation, generational legacy, and sacred worth. From the beginning of creation to the hope of our eternal home, Scripture reveals that the home is not just a cultural idea—it is a kingdom strategy. Together, we'll discover how to build, lead, protect, and redeem our homes for the glory of God and the good of generations to come.The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilmFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In this week's sermon, we explore one of Jesus' final and most intimate claims: “I am the vine.” Spoken in the quiet upper room just before the cross, Jesus reveals Himself as the true source of life, growth, and connection. In a world where so many feel cut off, tired, or spiritually dry, this “I Am” statement shows us who Jesus really is—and what it means to truly abide in Him. As the vine, Jesus invites us into deep friendship, faithful surrender, and lasting fruitfulness. If you've been rushing, striving, or searching, Jesus invites you to rest, remain, and be rooted in Him.The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps:https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

What do you do when God doesn't show up in the way - or the timing - you expected? In John 11, Jesus receives word that His dear friend Lazarus is deathly ill. Yet, instead of rushing to heal him, Jesus delays. Lazarus dies. Grief sets in. Hope seems lost. But in the middle of that pain, Jesus makes one of the most audacious claims in all of Scripture: "I am the resurrection and the life." Even when it feels like God is late - He's still on time.The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

Who is Jesus? That's not just a religious question - it's the most important question that you'll ever answer. While culture offers countless versions of Jesus - from a tuxedo-wearing party savior to a kung fu vampire hunter - we're going to look at what Jesus actually says about himself. This week, we begin with his bold claim: "I Am the Bread of Life." In a world starving for meaning, fulfillment, and connection, Jesus offers more than a quick fix - he offers soul-satisfying, life-giving bread that fulfills, unites, and endures.The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

In a world increasingly uncomfortable with the idea of divine judgment, Jesus' teaching on hell cuts through the cultural noise with sobering clarity. In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, Jesus describes the reality of hell, the certainty of death, and the eternal consequences of our choices. Far from being a message of fear, this sermon serves as a wake up call - to reject counterfeit gods, embrace the grace of repentance, and boldly warn others with urgency and love. The truth of hell magnifies the beauty of the cross, where Christ bore the wrath we deserved so we wouldn't. In this sermon, Pastor Ethan answers the question, "Is Hell Real?"The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events

When it was time for Abraham to continue God's legacy through his son Issac, he didn't leave it to chance - he was intentional in how the next generation would be built. In the same way, our lives are not just about having a good time but leaving a good legacy. God's plan for us extends beyond the present moment into future generations. By trusting Him and following His Word, we can build families and lives that honor God for years to come. In this sermon, Pastor Ethan shares “How to Leave a Godly Legacy.”The Bridge Church exists to join God in multiplying his kingdom in Wilmington and the world.For more information on The Bridge Church, please visit https://thebridgeilm.com/Next Steps: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/people/forms/302918If you feel led, give online by clicking here: https://www.thebridgeilm.com/giveSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebridgeilm/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeILMEvents Page: https://thebridgeilm.churchcenter.com/registrations/events
