Between TMZ, the Depp-Heard trial, and social media it seems like we live in a society addicted to "hot gossip." But while Proverbs calls gossip delicious, "juice morsels" - what are the effects of it on society and the individual? Instead of speaking ill of those not in the room, our transforming God can turn us into Christ-like advocates of others. Join us this Sunday for the Hot Gossip about Gossip.

Intuitively we all know "listening" is an important skill to master. The problem is it doesn't always come easy. Time and time again in the Proverbs learning to listen is identified as a prerequisite for becoming wise.

We will also celebrate Lord's Supper.

Join Bridge Church this Sunday for an exploration on the nature of true faith with pit stops in Haggai, the Heidelberg Catechism, a chocolate chip muffin recipe and more. We will see that while religious pageantry lacks substance, true faith leads to real life-changing power.

Sometimes when we step out in faith in our lives the reality sets in and we think "what have I done?!" The journey of faith is not for the faint of heart. In Christ we can find the One who gives us strength to see beyond outside appearances.
