Breaking Barriers, Building Bridges

Our unique vision at ChristBridge is to be "a catalyst for bringing unity to the community of Christ" (John 17:21).  This is the heart of Jesus' prayer for his disciples.  We help develop the disciple's heart by   bridging people to God, each other, and ministry.  Our vision and process are based on three statements that Jesus made about disciples (or those who follow him).  We call it CB3.  We want to be:

Bridging people to God

. . . through worship.   Jesus said in John 8:31: "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples." Our weekend worship services are designed to bridge you to God on an intimate level. We place a high priority on biblical teaching, engaging worship, and a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Bridging people to each other

. . . through  small groups.  Jesus said in John 13:35: "By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."  We also believe that people need to build bridges with others, that no one should stand alone. We offer small groups designed to foster friendships with other people in a safe and caring environment.

Bridging people to ministry

. . . through a lifestyle of service.   Jesus said in John 15:8: "This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples."  We have a strong conviction that every follower of Christ should enjoy doing ministry. Bridging to ministry is part of the life of a growing disciple.  It also gives you a deep sense of purpose as you see God using you to impact others. We offer ministry teams so you can serve alongside others. But ministry is mostly about serving people wherever you are everyday: at home, in your neighborhood, at work and in your community. 

It's simple.  And yet we believe that if, in a typical week, a disciple is focused on these three things, our world would be impacted greatly. 

Just like it has been impacted by the one we follow.  The one who broke down barriers that existed between God and people and built a bridge between them.
