< Back Are You Chasing the Wind? Pastor Nate Brosher Jan 7, 2024 Are You Chasing the Wind? Ecclesiastes 3:14-15 NLT 14 And I know that whatever God does is final. Nothing can be added to it or taken from it. God's purpose is that people should fear him. 15 What is happening now has happened before, and what will happen in the future has happened before, because God makes the same things happen over and over again. Ecclesiastes represents the painful autobiography of Solomon who, for much of his life, squandered God's blessings on his own personal pleasure rather than God's glory. He wrote to warn subsequent generations not to make the same tragic error. Solomon said, “God makes the same things happen over and over again!” Life is a big cycle. Our response determines our cycle of life. What are we chasing after? If we are chasing and pursuing after anything but God, we are chasing the wind. Isaiah 66:12 ESV 12 For thus says the LORD: "Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream; and you shall nurse, you shall be carried upon her hip, and bounced upon her knees. God gives us peace like a river. How do we explain peace to someone who is distraught and in pain? Philippians 4:6-7 NLT 6 Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Don’t worry about anthing! 1 Timothy 6:6-8 ESV 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. Godliness – (Reverence, respect towards God) with contentment (a perfect condition of life in which no aid or support is needed) is great gain! Solomon’s final words Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 NLT 13 That's the whole story. Here now is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey his commands, for this is everyone's duty. 14 God will judge us for everything we do, including every secret thing, whether good or bad. Only we can answer the question internally of what we are chasing after or pursuing. Previous Next

< Back Romans 12: Character Pastor Nate Brosher Feb 8, 2024 Romans 12 Series: Character Romans 12:12-21 NLT 12 Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble and keep on praying. 13 When God's people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality. 14 Bless those who persecute you. Don't curse them; pray that God will bless them. 15 Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep. 16 Live in harmony with each other. Don't be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don't think you know it all! 17 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. 18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone. 19 Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, "I will take revenge; I will pay them back," says the LORD. 20 Instead, "If your enemies are hungry, feed them. If they are thirsty, give them something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals of shame on their heads." 21 Don't let evil conquer you but conquer evil by doing good. 1. Be Patient! Galatians 5:22-23 ESV 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience , kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Ephesians 4:1-3 ESV 1 I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience , bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. The adjective eager describes someone is excited about or impatient for something. 2. Be Disciplined! Discipline is the quality of being able to behave and work in a controlled way which involves obeying particular rules or standards. Galatians 2:20-21 NLT 20 My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So, I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless. For if keeping the law could make us right with God, then there was no need for Christ to die. Matthew 11:28-30 NLT 28 Then Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light." 3. Be Structured! When something is structured, it's arranged according to a specific plan. When someone is structured they are organized so that the parts relate well to each other; having a clear structure. 1 Corinthians 15:33-34 NLT 33 Don't be fooled by those who say such things, for "bad company corrupts good character." 34 Think carefully about what is right and stop sinning. For to your shame, I say that some of you don't know God at all. Let’s begin to walk this life of Integrity by showing character. Previous Next

< Back The Journey Series Pt. 2: Open Arms Pastor Nate Brosher Nov 10, 2024 Luke 15:11-24 NLT 11 To illustrate the point further, Jesus told them this story: "A man had two sons. 12 The younger son told his father, 'I want my share of your estate now before you die.' So, his father agreed to divide his wealth between his sons. 13 "A few days later this younger son packed all his belongings and moved to a distant land, and there he wasted all his money in wild living. 14 About the time his money ran out, a great famine swept over the land, and he began to starve. 15 He persuaded a local farmer to hire him, and the man sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. 16 The young man became so hungry that even the pods he was feeding the pigs looked good to him. But no one gave him anything. 17 "When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, 'At home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! 18 I will go home to my father and say, "Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, 19 and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant."' 20 "So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. 21 His son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.' 22 "But his father said to the servants, 'Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. 23 And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, 24 for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.' So, the party began. 1. Lost in your Journey. Anxiety or being anxious about your current situation or even future, depression or the feeling of being depressed, bitterness through (holding on to broken dreams), loneliness or the sense of (discontentment). What foreign land are you wandering in? What are we allowing to consume our thoughts? Luke 15:28-32 NLT 28 "The older brother was angry and wouldn't go in. His father came out and begged him, 29 but he replied, 'All these years I've slaved for you and never once refused to do a single thing you told me to. And in all that time you never gave me even one young goat for a feast with my friends. 30 Yet when this son of yours comes back after squandering your money on prostitutes, you celebrate by killing the fattened calf!' Lack of Understanding of his father’s love for his children. 31 "His father said to him, 'Look, dear son, you have always stayed by me, and everything I have is yours. 32 We had to celebrate this happy day. For your brother was dead and has come back to life! He was lost, but now he is found!'" 2. The Love of the Father We take for granted His Love. The Focus is always on us. Previous Next

Home Groups Members 5-20 Duration + Frequency 1-2 Hours, Bi-weekly Sign Up Home groups are a unique setting which provide space for deep community to form and for exploration of teaching in a way that is not possible in a Sunday or midweek service. A home group a group of people choosing to push into this idea, intentionally pushing deep into community and teaching together. Practically, this means church members are meeting regularly to share life and grow in faith together. There are a number of activities that are commonplace in home groups: Praying together Studying the Bible Exploring an aspect of the Christian faith Catching up on one another’s news Worship Studying a book about the Bible or Christian faith together Sharing a meal What truly matters is that the group’s activities center around Christ and the discipleship of the group’s members. The key is to grow in our love for God and for one another. Home groups are led by individuals who have a teaching and/or pastoral gifting. All leaders are vetted and equipped by elders of the church as they must be of godly character (Titus 2:7-8) and able to rightfully divide the word of God (2 Tim. 2:15). While there is no set structure groups must follow, one can typically expect: Greetings and chit chat, perhaps with snacks or a meal Prayer Worship Sharing of prophetic words with the group (always to be tested; see 1 Cor. 14:29) Lesson and discussion on Bible passages and themes Ready to sign up?

Sharing the Gospel These resources provide you with simple and memorable ways to engage with those you encounter in life, empowering you to confidently introduce others to their loving Creator and Savior. Salvation Salvation and the forgiveness of sins do not hinge on a set of prescribed steps. Rather, they revolve around accepting Christ as our Savior and acknowledging His completed work on our behalf. The singular requirement from God is to take the step of receiving Jesus Christ as the Savior from sin, placing complete trust in Him as the sole path to salvation. This is one thing that distinguishes the Christian faith from other religions, which have lists of steps that must be followed in order to achieve their versions of salvation. The Christian faith recognizes that God has already fulfilled the necessary steps and invites the repentant to receive Him in faith, leading to a transformed life and renewed beliefs (Rom. 12:1-2) as one continues to walk with the Lord. The Journey The Christian journey encompasses significant stages, paralleling physical birth, education, and employment. In a spiritual context, individuals experience a new birth in Christ, progress in holiness through the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and ultimately, attain eternal communion with God. These moments are termed justification, sanctification, and glorification, describing the Christian path from spiritual rebirth to resurrection. 01 Justification An act of God whereby He pronounces a sinner to be righteous because of that sinner’s faith in Christ. We are justified (declared righteous) at the moment of our salvation, that is, when we confess and believe the Gospel. It is in that moment that we are brought into Christ and the Holy Spirit is brought into us. Rom. 10:9; Rom. 1:16- 17; 1 Cor. 1:30; 2 Cor. 5:17; 2 Cor. 5:21; Matt. 6:33 ; Acts 2:38 Core Beliefs Christianity is a historic faith with a long lineage of saints led by God who gave their lives to advance and defend it. There are certain truths (non-negotiable doctrines) one must hold in order to be a true follower of Christ Jesus according to Scripture. We understand it will take time to fully understand these doctrines, so we encourage you to engage with our discipleship opportunities by connecting with one of our leaders and signing up for a Bible class . 01 One God There is one triune God — the Creator of all things — existing eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spir it. Luke 1:35; Matt. 3:16-17; Acts 7:55-56; 2 Co r. 13:14 Fellowship with God Being a follower of Jesus is more than a one-time experience, adopting a set of beliefs and "going to church" every Sunday. It's about having an on-going relationship with the true and living God — the Creator and Lover of your soul. As you seek Him in prayer, the reading of His word and other forms of worship, you will continue to deepen this relationship. It's important that we understand why we do things like sing, pray, read the Bible, give, serve, etc. and the role they play in our relationship with the Lord. These are all fundamental to understanding the purpose of humanity — to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. 01 Why read the Bible? Discovering who God is (theology) occurs through reading the Bible. We are called to worship Him in spirit and in truth — truth being an engaging of the mind. Submitting our minds to God and His word is a rich and satisfying form of worship. This sacred text holds His messages about life and accounts of God engaging with people, illustrating His care for humanity. Additionally, the Bible provides guidance on establishing a personal relationship with God. Psalm 33:4; Psalm 119:11; Ps alm 119:105; Heb. 4:12; Rom. 15:4; James 1:21; Eph. 6:17 ; John 8:31-32 ; 2 Tim. 3:16-17 Study Plan The Bible is a big book. It's actually a library of books. Reading it isn't a task to check off our list, but rather, a journey to embark on. While we would typically start reading any other book from the beginning, the Bible isn't just any other book. So where do we start? We start with the Gospels. Why? Because the Bible is one unified story that leads us to Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. The concept of starting with the Gospels is so that we can know who Jesus is, what He did and why He did it first, that way we have a framework for what the rest of the Bible is all about.

Life Groups God designed us to do life together. There is an all-too-real epidemic of loneliness, lack of sense of belonging, and poor discipleship within many of today’s church communities. How Life Groups Work Life groups are groups of 2 or more people (ideally gender specific, though hybrids are not necessarily discouraged) who simply study the Bible and follow Christ together. They meet for one hour each week, or however often they can, to reflect on the Scripture they read, discuss life — how they were obedient to God's word or how they struggled to live it — and then encourage and pray for one another. Below is a general structure that we've found has a very organic and conversational tone. 01 Reflection Reflect on the Scripture you read or that week’s sermon. Discuss its application to your life. 20 Minutes 02 Obedience + Accountability Share your successes and failures in obeying God’s word. Think about what kind of questions you can ask of yourself and others when admitting to struggles and areas of unbelief (sin). 03 Believe + Pray Commit yourself to actively believing God's word and pray about how you can respond to and demonstrate the realities of God’s Kingdom in your life. 20 Minutes 20 Minutes Why Life Groups Work Life groups work when we love God, love one another, and are obedient to God's word (Matt. 22:34-40; John 14:21). While the life groups format is important to follow and based on biblical principles, without love they are merely rules which, in and of themselves, have no transformative power to renew our minds and shape us into the image of Christ. Scripture exhorts us to submit ourselves to the ways of the Lord (James 4:7; Jer. 17:10; Rom. 8:7; Eph. 5:21). In following the example and life of Christ, we are to CARE for one another. Companionship Accountability Repentance Encouragement Companionship In the opening chapters of Genesis God said, "It is not good for man to be alone." While solitude and silence are essential parts of life, when God welcomes us and adopts us into His family we are joining exactly that — a family. A family that God desires to do life together, sharing and enjoying the blessings and gifts He has given each one of us. Advancing God's eternal Kingdom of love together. Sharpening and loving one another in all things as we await the Day of the Lord. See: 1 Thess. 5:11; Col. 3:13; 1 Cor. 15:33; Eccl. 4:9-10; et al. Accountability Scripture is clear that we will all give an account of ourselves to God (Rom. 14:12). Through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in Christ's followers (1 Cor. 6:19-20; John 14:17) and through the Biblical fellowship with one another, God has granted us a means of accountability that we will live in the way of Christ. See: James 5:16; Gal. 6:1-5; Prov. 27:17; Luke 17:3; Eph. 4:25; et al. Repentance Repentance is a core theme all throughout Scripture. Part of accountability is to help keep each another from sinning, but when we do fall into unbelief in an area of our life (sin) we are to gently restore each other through repentance and confessing our sin to one another (James 5:16). Repentance is the door to restoration. See: Acts 3:19; Matt. 4:17; 2 Peter 3:9; et al. Encouragement Jesus calls us all to repent and believe the Gospel (Mark 1:15). In other words, turn from your unbelief that is causing you to sin and believe in Him who has set you free! Encouragement is so much more than complimenting people on their shoes; it's motivating people to believe — like really believe — in the Gospel and to respond to the realities of the God's eternal Kingdom of love in our lives that we will be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord.

Foundations Explore the fundamental teachings and principles that form the bedrock of Christianity in this self-led course, where faith meets understanding and transformation begins. Salvation Salvation does not hinge on a set of prescribed steps. Rather, they revolve around accepting Christ as our Savior and acknowledging His completed work on our behalf. The singular requirement from God is to take the step of receiving Jesus Christ as the Savior from sin, placing complete trust in Him as the sole path to salvation.

What is the Gospel? What About My Past? The Gospel is good news. Yet even after receiving the truth of the Gospel, many people struggle with a persistent sense of condemnation of their past, fearing that God has not fully forgiven their sins and that He may eventually run out of patience with them. Despite experiencing glimpses of joy in salvation, feelings of unworthiness and doubts about God’s love and forgiveness linger. Common thoughts include fears of exhausting God’s grace through repeated failures, doubting His limitless forgiveness, and feeling that forgiveness applies to everyone but themself. The reason for this internal struggle lies in a failure to fully believe what God has promised about dealing with their sin. Instead of being consumed by our failures, we should meditate gratefully on what God has done with our sins. 01 He laid your sin upon His Son The primary act of God’s grace toward humanity was laying our sins upon Jesus Christ, who willingly became our substitute, bearing the punishment we deserved despite His innocence. Through this act, divine justice was fully met without compromising God’s love; Jesus took on our guilt, and in exchange, we receive His righteousness by faith. This foundational act of substitution is the basis of our forgiveness and righteousness. Isaiah 53:6; 2 Corinthians 5:19-21 Note: Adapted from Sam Storms', A Dozen Things God Did with Your Sin (and Three Things He'll Never Do) Core Beliefs Christianity is a historic faith with a long lineage of saints led by God who gave their lives to advance and defend it.

Building others that they may change their trajectory so that they can change the world through Jesus Christ. 01 Jesus is the Centerpiece The purpose of Bridgeway is to bring people closer to Jesus Christ. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. His message will never change. “I am the way, the truth and the life.” - John 14:6 Our Core Beliefs We nurture a rich and diverse theological ecosystem without compromising on the essentials of the faith. While we enjoy exploring the depths of God’s word and engaging various Biblical concepts and perspectives, we focus on the essentials that unify the Body of Christ. Christianity is a historic faith with a long lineage of saints led by God who gave their lives to advance and defend it. There are certain truths (non-negotiable doctrines) one must hold in order to be a Christian according to Scripture. 01 One God There is one triune God — the Creator of all things — existing eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spir it. Luke 1:35; Matt. 3:16-17; Acts 7:55-56; 2 Co r. 13:14 Our Leaders Nathan Brosher Lead Pastor Isaiah Brosher one.16 Teen Ministry Chase Radford Life Groups + Discipleship Jessica Brosher Women's Ministry Allie Brosher Bridge Kids Julius Anderson Men's Ministry Christi Roberts Bridge Kids
