Bridge Sermons Podcast

We all know the exhausting cycle: bending over backwards to keep people happy, replaying conversations in your head, chasing that thumbs-up you never quite feel satisfied by. But what happens when people-pleasing takes the wheel of your leadership, your parenting, your faith? 

Check out Scott's message from Exodus 32.

One of the greatest mistakes Miriam made was to veer into a lane that wasn't hers. Even after great success, she felt she deserved more. How many of us are making the same mistake? What should we do about it?

Check out Junior's full message on Miriam from Exodus 15 and Numbers 12.

Do you spend more energy fighting purposeless battles than fighting your own sin? It's easy to burn all your energy on the wrong fight, while the one that actually matters gets ignored. Are you pouring yourself into what counts?

Check out our final message from 1 Timothy.

Does life ever feel like an uphill, losing battle despite your best efforts? What if the way to succeed was really to let go? It might feel counterproductive, but surrendering control could be the best step toward the life you desire.

Check out Denim’s message from Jeremiah 38 & 39.

Are you content with where you're at in life or do you blame God for it? The Bible says to love the hand of the Father, regardless what comes from it. How do we grow in our trust of Him and our contentment with what He's given us?

Check out Junior's message from 1 Timothy 6.

Most of us approach growth the same way we approach New Year's resolutions - try harder, do better, repeat. But willpower only gets us so far. How can we actually grow closer to God and live how He's called us to? 

Check out Denim's message from 1 Timothy 4.

Spiritual drift is something no one thinks they'll experience, but it could happen to anyone. How can we stay rooted in God and make sure we're lifelong, faithful followers of Jesus?

Check out Scott’s message from 1 Timothy 3 & 4.

Paul clearly lays out the qualifications for elders and deacons in 1 Timothy 3, but that list could help all of us grow, even if we don't hold those titles. Every one of us holds influence in some area of life and we could be one small step away from a major level up in our leadership. Which area of the list are you lacking in?

Forgetfulness might be the greatest threat to your spiritual life. We're quick to claim our own success and slow to remember how far God has brought us. What is the role of remembrance for a believer?

Check out Denim’s message from Deuteronomy 6-7.

The Bible doesn't shy away from outlining roles for men and women, so neither should we, even if it makes us uncomfortable. How do we navigate some of the most polarizing, controversial verses in scripture?

Check out Scott's message from 1 Timothy 2.

Prayer can feel like one of the hardest habits to build and maintain, even for devoted followers of Jesus. But what if the struggle pushes us to depend on God even more? What would it look like to stop treating prayer as a last resort and start making it your first response? 

Check out Brian's message from 1 Timothy 2.

What do we do when we feel like a mess? We can be tempted to run away from God in shame or embarrassment. Instead, the gospel says that's the moment when we should be calling our Heavenly Father and running to Him. Will you stop running and bring your mess to Him?

When God's people lose focus on the gospel, little things become big fights. Twisted doctrine doesn't always look twisted at first, and that's what makes it so dangerous. Are you anchored to the true gospel, or have you been drifting without realizing it?

Check out Scott’s first message in our new series on 1 Timothy.

Jesus’ first command to His followers was to get baptized, but over the centuries baptism has become overcomplicated. Questions like “when should I?” and “why should I?” have plagued churchgoers, but they don’t have to. 

Check out Denim’s message from Baptism Weekend for a clear view on what baptism really is.

Our world is obsessed with looking strong, competent, and put-together, even in church. But God isn’t impressed by our image; He wants our hearts surrendered to Him. How can we worship Him this way? 

Check out Junior’s message from Luke 7.

2,000 years ago, Jesus rose from the dead and defeated death. However, many of us are still searching for fufillment in things that can’t satisfy. How can we receive the life Jesus offers? 

Check out Scott’s sermon from Easter.

What does it mean to be "born again"? Many people think you have to be raised religious, try hard enough, or live a spiritual life, but that's not salvation. What does Jesus Himself say about it?

Check out Teddy’s message from John 3.

Jesus preached to thousands, but some of His most well-known moments were in personal conversations. How did a simple question to the woman at the well change her entire future and her whole town?

Check out Denim’s message as we kick off our Conversations series.

Obsessions come and go. We pour our time, money, and energy into the next hot thing, only to find ourselves wanting more again and coming up empty every time. What's the one thing that can fully satisfy, and how should that change how we live? 

Check out Junior’s message from Commitment Weekend.
