Speaker: Dan Stockum
Series: God Speakers: Minor Prophets
Scripture Focus: Hosea 2:14-3:2
| |
The prophets of the Old Testament often give us a window into God’s complex heart. On the one hand, they show the depth of God’s grief and anger when His people reject Him. On the other hand, they show God’s never ending love and the lengths to which He will go to be with us. This week, as we begin studying the minor prophets, we will see the ups and downs of God’s Love Story—the greatest love story ever told. | |
Bridges Town Hall — October 29
| |
Our Bridges leadership has created three position papers on the subjects of Justice, Life in the Womb, and Marriage & Human Sexuality. These can all be found under the "Truth Matters" tab HERE on our website. On Sun., Oct. 29, at 6:30pm in our Worship Center, our leadership will be available to respond to any questions you may have. You are encouraged to send your questions in advance to dan@bridges.church. | |
Pastor Appreciation Month | |
October is Pastor Appreciation Month and this Sun., October 8, is Pastor Appreciation Sunday. A pastoral job is one of the toughest leadership roles, and our pastors were called to be at Bridges to teach, guide, and bless us and our community. Please take time this week and all month to consider a meaningful way to show Pastors Dan, Steve, and Nate why you appreciate them all year round. | |
Reasons to Believe Zoom Event — October 13

You are invited to our Reasons to Believe San Jose chapter event on Fri., Oct. 13, at 7:00pm on Zoom. Using J.

Help Feed Dinner to Local Homeless | |

Guest numbers at the shelter have increased greatly to 150 people, so lots of help is needed whether it's for 30 minutes or 2 hours! Volunteer to drop off supplies at Bridges, or help cook in the Bridges kitchen on a designated Sunday between 12:30 and 2:00pm. For questions, contact sujana.panthulu@gmail.com. | |
Join us in Baja, Mexico, as we work with Baja Christian Ministries again on MLK Weekend, Jan. 11-15, 2024. We will be building a home for a needy family currently living in inadequate housing conditions, and conducting outreach activities in order to share God’s love with children and families. | |
