Reaching the Lost. Discipling the Saved. Sharing the Love of Jesus with Everyone.

It’s Not About You

I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord. Though I am free from all, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win more of them. I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.

1 Corinthians 9:19

True freedom is found in Jesus. But one who truly follows Jesus is careful in the exercising of that freedom.

We are free to serve!

This seems like a dichotomy, yet it is a central tenant of Faith. That’s because we realize that “it’s not about us!” We live and die for Jesus because He lived and died for us! We live and die for others because He lived and died for us!

It’s about Jesus and others!

We are here to live, love, and serve.

So may we exercise our true freedom wisely and in the fear of the Lord!

Undivided Devotion

I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.

1 Corinthians 7:35

We get pulled all over the place. Our attention, our finances, our devotion, our time, and our energy. There never seem to be enough hours in the day to do all that needs to be done – and there doesn’t ever seem to be an end in sight to that.

It’s exhausting!

God certainly doesn’t want us to ignore the needs of our family or others in our devotion and work for Him. Rather, by being devoted to Him, we show our love for others. Even better than being and example for our families and others is for them to come along with us, too!

That is devotion that’s good for everyone!

COVID POSITIVE NOTIFICATION

Good afternoon!

We praise and thank the Lord for His continued grace and kindness upon us as a people and nation, and for His mercy and protection amidst the pandemic and unrest that exists around us.

LifeBridge has just learned that someone who came in and immediately went out of LifeBridge this last Sunday, January 17, has tested positive for COVID-19. Although the risk to those who attended is very low, we wanted to let you know so that you may take appropriate precautions and steps to keep yourself and your families safe, and to keep this person in your prayers for a speedy and full recovery.

WE URGE:

  1. In all public venues, including church, wear a CDC approved face covering.
  2. Enhance your social distancing discipline to maintain 6 feet of distance from others not in your immediate family.
  3. Carefully monitor your symptoms and avoid all personal contact and nonessential travel if you feel the least bit ill.
  4. Continue hand washing and the use of hand sanitizer.
  5. Should you have any symptoms or feel ill, stay away from in-person worship and seek advice from your healthcare professional.
  6. Speak with your health care provider or local Health Department officials with any specific questions you may have about your health or COVID-19.

To ensure your safety LIFEBRIDGE WILL:

  1. Continue to have all worship leadership’s temperature taken and masks worn when not seated each Sunday morning.
  2. Continue to perform contact tracing on those who attend services.
  3. Initiate an enhanced cleaning protocol 1 hour prior to any gathering and a follow up cleaning immediately following an event.
  4. Start handing out Communion elements and fellowship snacks to minimize contact by several.
  5. Closely monitor local, state and federal guidance and adjust our COVID-19 protocols accordingly.

This virus, like all struggles will continue to win some battles in this world. But fear not; for Jesus has overcome the world and won the war!

Continuing to look at Jesus,
Pastor Scott

The FORGE — Meeting Recap & Podcast

A grateful thank you to all who attended the framing session for Forge, the Men’s Ministry of LifeBridge Community Church.

We spent some time listening to the needs of men in our community and we are dedicated to responding to those needs in a manly and Godly way.

If you would like a more in-depth look into what we learned and what’s next, check out episode 1 of the Forge Podcast.

We will meet again this Saturday, January 23rd, in the Cafe at LifeBridge Church at 0800 to discuss the proposed 6-month calendar of activities.

Still plenty of opportunities to have your voice and your needs heard.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Listen to the first episode of the FORGE podcast below!


Follow Me!

God knows us better than we know ourselves. Every scary, unsavory, terrible bit! And He calls us anyway to “follow Him,” – just as we are!

But just because He accepts and Calls us as we are, doesn’t mean we get to stay who we are! He Calls us as we are – to become more like Him!

That means often putting aside what we want and living the way He wants. That’s a true Calling! That’s true freedom! That’s true joy!

May you be comforted in the Lord’s acceptance of you, Call to you, and growth for you in Jesus!

Follow Me!

John 1:43c
