Welcome to Bridgeway's Table Talk series, where we engage in meaningful conversations about what it means to Come Home to God and church. In his first table talk, Dr. David Anderson and a panel of guests explore the topic of spiritual authority. The early believers in Acts 2:42 were devoted to the Apostle's teaching, but what does this mean for us today? Join us as we discuss the practical implications and applications of spiritual authority and how to navigate the fine line between healthy authority and authoritarianism. Come Home today and engage in worship, scripture reading, and thought-provoking conversation with your Bridgeway Community Church online family.

Does a white man have a voice in the conversation around racial reconciliation?  How can I be a bridge-builder if I don't live near people who look different from me?  What is God calling ME to do to help bring unity and healing to our world?  20 years ago, Dr. David Anderson introduced the world to the concept of “Gracism-the Art of Inclusion.” Because how we talk about race has changed since 2007, the revised and expanded “Gracism”, has just been released. A mentee of Dr. Anderson, my friend David Heiliger has been learning and joining in this important work around the world.  Join me and my special guest David Heiliger, Pastor of Multi-Cultural Bridge Building at Bridgeway Community Church for an honest conversation about the racial divide in our world and Jesus's heart to heal it. We all have a part to play.  

Season 4 Episode 7How to Shut Up, Listen, and Believe"Multicultural relationships are a vaccine to the terrible virus of racism" - Dr. David AndersonHere at Vineyard Columbus, part of our mission statement is to develop multi-ethnic communities of disciples. Multicultural ministry is interwoven into our Christian heritage and guaranteed as the fullness of God's promised Kingdom. It's a big deal to us here on the In-Between. But doing the work of multicultural ministry is much more than fellowship and Sunday morning niceties. Today we're joined by two experts who will be sharing about doing the hard work of building and sustaining multicultural ministry through the art of radical inclusion. Dr. Dave Anderson is the founder and President of Gracism Global- one of the world's leading authorities on bridging the deep divides of race, faith, culture, and wealth. Known as the bridge-building voice in the Nation's Capital, Anderson hosts the daily radio talk show "Real Talk with Dr. David Anderson" – the most listened to Christian talk station on the East Coast. As the founder and senior pastor of Bridgeway Community Church, Dr. Anderson reaches a multicultural congregation of over 10,000 weekly attendees from more than 60 nations, viewed online in over 100 countries, with locations in Columbia and Owings Mills, Maryland. He authored a book, Gracism, The Art of Inclusion, in 2007 which we will be discussing today. We're also joined by Pastor David Heiliger - the director of Gracism Global, a diversity consulting firm committed to equipping transformational leaders for the sake of racial healing. David is also the Pastor of Multicultural Bridge Building at Bridgeway Community Church in Columbia, Maryland, where over 60 different nations are represented in the church body. David graduated from the Center for Justice and Peace-building at Eastern Mennonite University with a Master's Degree in Conflict Transformation. He is training for his first Half Ironman and loves spending time outdoors with his wife, Julie, and their 8-year-old daughter.https://gracismglobal.com/ https://andersonspeaks.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-heiliger-01081939/ https://bookstore.vineyardcolumbus.org/reads/p/gracism-the-art-of-inclusion?rq=gracism

Racism has divided our country and our world for generations. My heart has been broken over it. Maybe you've experienced it yourself, or you've ached as you saw the divide get bigger.  Is “Gracism” the answer to racism?  My pastor and friend, Dr. David Anderson, planted Bridgeway Community Church 30 years ago, a multi-cultural church, where people of 52 nations worship and do life, together! He is one of the leading voices in the world on the topic of racism and reconciliation and he has created a word, that is more of a solution than I've heard anywhere: Gracism.  I am so excited to share this conversation with you as he shares his personal story of growing up in Prince George's County, Maryland, a burning cross on his front lawn, and a mother who put honoring Jesus above revenge or bitterness.  From Dr. Anderson's own history, God birthed in him a passion to help us find common ground, racial reconciliation, and healing. 2:11- How David grew up6:15- The moment that shaped David8:50- The outlook David had19:30- The turning point of how David gave his life to the Lord22:11- How and when David got the idea of planting a Multicultural Church31:27- A working definition of racism35:25- How God works through the Multicultural Church36:19- Side dishes and how the different preferences are represented with all the diverse cultures42:02- Gracism: The Art of Inclusion by David Anderson44:56- The sayings of a gracist

This summer we experienced upheaval regarding race in our country and around the world. Do you believe the Christian workplace should be the model for racial healing amid civil unrest? Well, today's episode highlights a multicultural workplace that is doing just that. Listen now to learn how. Normally, I'm joined on the podcast by one guest. Today, I'm honored and grateful to welcome two guests—two tremendous leaders serving one, dynamic multicultural church outside Baltimore, Maryland. In the next few minutes, we're going to talk about a historic challenge and opportunity facing the church in America right now. Their ministry perspective, their stories, their devotion to love, and serve Jesus Christ will inspire you like nothing else.    I want to welcome in Frank Eastham, Chief Operating Officer, and Tim Samuel, Chief Financial Officer for Bridgeway Community Church, in the Columbia and Owings Mills regions outside of Baltimore, Maryland. Frank, Tim, thanks for joining me here on the Flourishing Culture Podcast.   Find full show notes here https://www.bcwinstitute.org/podcast/going-beyond-div…community-church/

Tim Samuel, CPA, the CFO at Bridgeway Community Church in Columbia, Maryland, explores how crisis pushes people and organizations towards innovation, accelerating the creative process.   We also delve into communicating and listening to wise sources of counsel as you lead through especially uncertain times. Conversation Highlights: -Creativity doesn't always have to mean making something completely new, but can simply involve adjust existing process or technology to solve a new problem. -Leading and ministering to your people in a crisis must include regular, clear communication.  Things involves both mass communication to larger teams (congregations) and individual and targeted outreach. -Be wise in choosing which voices you are listening to in a crisis.   Start by listening to the voice of God, and then be intentional about seeking out additional trusted sources of counsel to inform your decision-making.  While there is wisdom in multiple counselors (Prov. 11:14; 15:22) not every voice deserves your attention. -Many business owners lead in isolation, which can make it difficult to maintain a grip on reality.  This is an important time to not forsake your existing support network (whether formal or informal) to keep you from losing perspective and getting stuck.

​Nikki Lerner, Worship Director at Bridgeway Community Church in Columbia Md., joined Kevin Krueger to talk about worship,the power of music and finding hope.

On this episode we are joined by Nikki Lerner. She is a worship leader from Bridgeway Community Church in Baltimore, Maryland and occasionally, we get to be led by her in worship at The Crossing. We sat down to talk with her about her story, her passions, and her heart for race reconciliation in the Church.

Dave Michener is the executive pastor at Bridgeway Community Church where Dave and I also do ministry. "Pastor Mich" has an inspiring and mostly, in my opinion, faith-led and brave, story. It's a story of uprooting his family to leave Ohio to move to Maryland to be a youth pastor with no Salary! It was his relationship with Dr. David Anderson and his eagerness to be a part of a diverse body of people that directed his path here. It is that same eagerness and pastoral heart that Mich possesses that has led to his relationship with Dave and me where we are hand in hand in ministry. As you'll be able to tell from this episode, Mich just exudes wisdom and life experiences that teach without him "teaching." This is our landmark episode number 10! 00:10 - 83 North 02:40 - Guinness 09:03 - Weird Al Seattle 16:10 - Mich’s Eggs 23:20 - Question Time 35:11 - Mich Almost Dying 43:45 - Balding 53:53 - Mich’s Defining Moment

In this episode, Nikki and her band (David Lerner, David Phillips & Stephen Waddy) talk about cultural assumptions, racial tension, Black Lives Matter and how the church should be leading the conversation on racial reconciliation. Interviewers: Jonathan Williams, Ben GraceABOUT NIKKI Nikki is a songwriter, speaker, worship leader coach, and co-author of the book Worship Together: In Your Church As In Heaven.  She currently serves as the Worship Director at Bridgeway Community Church in Columbia, MD, an intentionally multicultural church serving over 4,000 people each week.    To get more info about Nikki, visit her website, nikkilerner.com
