Here at The Bridge Church, as well as textural and expository preaching – messages that aim to build on the ‘bigger picture’ of all the books of the Bible – we do aim to cover a range of topics that try to address the current issues in society and in the everyday life of the Church.
Both types of preaching are not only central to encouraging a balanced growth within the Christian life but are essential for those who are seeking to understand more about the Christian faith.
On these pages you will find a range of messages that cover a wide variety of topics such as, sexual purity, marriage and divorce to forgiveness, and everything in between.
We hope you find these sermons helpful and do come back as often as you can as we are adding to them regularly.
