life groups | connecting with others
God’s desire for us, and our greatest need, is to be in relationship – relationship with God through His Son Jesus and relationship with others. We too often live in isolation and life is most fully lived in the context of community. Nobody should stand alone!
At the bridge, this is most effective within a life group. These small groups of people meet together regularly for the purpose of studying God’s Word, spurring each other toward growth and maturity, caring and praying with each other, living out God’s mission together in this world. In general, doing life together.
Whatever stage of life you find yourself, there is a place for you!
