Bridges Street Ministry

If Jesus walked through Whalley today, He wouldn't avoid these streets. He would be right here, sitting with us and sharing real time with real people who are in real pain and in real struggle. And He would say the same thing He has always said: "Follow Me"."Follow Me" and let's start walking together. Out of the cycle, out of the lies, out of the identity that's been put on you ... into something brand new. 

Today we are diving into something REAL, because you know, we like to keep it real at Bridges. Nobody wakes up in the morning and says, "Today, I am going to ruin my life." Most of the time, it happens slowly. One compromise, one moment, one decision that we try and justify and before we know it, we're somewhere we never thought we would be .... AGAIN.Today we take a surface look at the lives of Adam, Saul, Samson and David ... each one of them all had favour, each one of them had calling and they all had access to God. But all of them, at some point, drifted away from God. 

Jesus didn't go to the cross for us to improve our behaviours or to make us slightly improved, He came to make us brand new. 

We are taking a look at how Jesus defied the "religious rules" to reach the broken, marginalized and hurting. Scripture Focus: MARK 2:17

Some weeks can leave us feeling scattered, our lives can feel like they are in chaos. God invites us to seek Him in everything that we do. By making Him the centre hub of our lives, every single day, we will start to become more aligned to our purpose in God. 

The core message today how God consistently chooses people who are overlooked, broken, disqualified, or even rejected and uses them for extraordinary things. The only requirement is a willing heart, faith and obedience.
