Genesis 42v21-23 with Bethany Sumbela

Our past can shape the way we respond to relationships, handle conflict, and see ourselves, but it doesn't have to determine who we become. Through Joseph’s family story, we explore how God brings healing and redemption to our brokenness as we learn to recognize what needs to change, receive new experiences of relationship, and respond differently when old patterns resurface.

Genesis 41v28-36 with Tyler Staton

Where is God when it hurts? Through Joseph’s story, we discover how God meets us in our suffering, speaks through seasons of waiting, and works even what was intended for evil toward redemption. Clothed in Christ, we are formed by God’s voice, called to take up our cross, and invited to use the power we’ve been given to bring life and relief to others.

Genesis 39 with Christian Dawson

Scripture is full of promises that God will heal the world, but the headlines we read each day feel nothing like that. In Genesis 39, Joseph, the son who seemed to carry God’s promise ends up in a pit. He lives a story that raises the question: is God’s promise of flourishing for the world still alive?

Genesis 38v1-30 with Tyler Staton

Through the story of Judah and Tamar, we see how God works for redemption in the moments when we feel most forgotten. A story marked by deception, injustice, and shame ultimately points us to Jesus, who holds together justice and mercy, brings healing to our brokenness, and redeems our stories without dismissing our pain or excusing our wrongs.

Genesis 37 with Bethany Sumbela

The patterns we learn in our families can shape how we respond to pain and relate to others, but we don’t have to keep repeating them. Through Joseph’s story, explore how to change the patterns we can, forgive what we can’t control, and trust God as we move through each season of life.

Luke 1v39-41 with Tyler Staton, Bethany Sumbela, Joy Schlichter and Eric Wood.

As Bridgetown Church enters a new season, we explore what it means to grow deeper in spiritual formation, form families through shared life and story, and become a people of compassion who serve, seek justice, and build kinship. Together, we consider how to listen for God’s invitation and participate in the story he is writing among us.

Matthew 11v28-30 with Tyler Staton and Gavin Bennett

What if the path to rest isn’t escaping your life, but learning how to fully inhabit it? In this teaching, we explore how a shared rule of life can anchor us in God’s love, form us through our ordinary lives, and free us to discover joy right where we are.

John 15v9-14 with Tyler Staton

What stories are shaping you, what habits are forming you, and who are the people shaping who you’re becoming? Following Jesus means allowing the stories we believe, the habits we form, and the relationships we keep to reshape us into people who look more like him.

John 5v1-9 with Tyler Staton

Jesus asks the man at Bethesda, “Do you want to get well?” and then tells him to get up, pick up his mat, and walk. Wholeness is a gift of God’s grace, but it also calls for our participation - choosing to get up, take a step, and follow Jesus into a new way of life.

Genesis 34 with Todd Liles

What happens when we try to build the life we long for without listening to God’s voice? In a difficult story of violence, revenge, and brokenness, we are reminded that our attempts to create the garden on our own terms only leave us carrying heavier burdens. Jesus offers another way, inviting us to come to him and find rest
