The Bridge Podcast

In episode 4 of the Bridge Podcast, Patrick Rodriguez sits down with Marcus van Reenen to talk about why we hunger for revival and what it looks like. They share how different the move of God can be, why they believe God decides what revival looks like, and why staying childlike matters when He moves in ways we didn’t plan. They also talk about what they’re seeing at the Bridge now, from joy breaking out in hospitals to schools, crusades and nations opening up.

Every church carries a culture — a set of values that shape what we contend for, what we celebrate, and how we gather in His Presence.In this episode, Patrick Rodriguez shares the heart behind The Bridge's core values — not as a list of rules, but as the DNA of who we are becoming as we seek Him together.

In this episode of The Bridge Podcast, Marcus & Patrick sit down to unpack one of the most beautiful gifts in the church today — the prophetic. We take a journey through Scripture, from the Old Testament pattern of prophets revealing an unseen God, to the New Testament reality made possible through the Holy Spirit, where prophecy is given to build up, comfort, and encourage the whole body.Marcus & Patrick share why God's heart has always been for His people to carry this gift together — tested, stewarded, and activated within the family of the local church. This isn't about elevating a few special voices. It's about every believer growing in confidence to recognise and hear God for themselves.This conversation is an invitation into how we receive and carry what God speaks over us. What does it look like to receive a word as an invitation into deeper conversation with Christ? What does it mean to let a word be planted like a seed, given time to take root in the soil of community? And what does it look like to trust God's process — His shaping of our character — as we wait with expectation for a word to come to life?We believe prophecy is a gift for the whole body, given generously, to draw every person deeper into hearing and knowing God's voice. Lean in, be encouraged, and let faith rise as you learn to steward what God is speaking — over your life, your family, and your community.

In this episode of The Bridge Podcast, Marcus & Patrick sit down and lean into the story God has been writing in our community.Over the past nine years, we’ve seen His faithfulness again and again through moments of encounter, breakthrough, and the unmistakable moving of His Spirit. Patrick shares some of the stories that have marked us, along with the pattern the Lord has been revealing as we’ve chosen to build a people who seek His presence first.This conversation isn’t just about where we’ve been. It’s an invitation into what God is doing now. What does it look like to host His presence? To be shaped by Him as a family? To live with an expectation for His kingdom to come?We believe there is more. More of His presence, more of His goodness, more of His power at work in and through His people.Lean in, be stirred, and let faith rise for what God wants to do in your life and community!

It was a privilege to sit down with our friend, Pastor Nathaniel Leon from Riverside, California during his visit to The Bridge earlier this year. Enjoy!
