 "I Want To Hear A Sermon About ...," a new series of messages at Bridges, begins this Sunday, April 26. Based on suggestions submitted by people in the community, the series addresses topics about what is true and how to live out one's faith.
A wide variety of people suggested topics including college students, business professionals, a principle, mothers, and many others. Compiling suggestions produced more than a dozen message topics for the series. The first five messages in the series are:

 Jesus is the central figure in the Bible. Everything turns on Jesus: who he is and what he does.
The titles describing Jesus in the Bible provide a window into who he is. The series Who Is This Jesus? explores four of these titles beginning Sunday, March 29, at Bridges.
Each of these titles provide powerful insights about Jesus, including why he is so important in the Bible ... and to us today.

Did you know that taking a few steps across a room could change your friend's life forever ?
Beginning March 1st discover how the Holy Spirit works to connect you with people God wants to impact through you. In this four week series that includes Sunday messages and small group discusions your heart for people will expand. In addition, you will realize that the single greatest gift you can give your friends and family is an introduction to the God who created them, loves them, and has a purpose for their every day life.
On Sunday mornings and through small group discussions we'll learn together how to approach a hurting world with the relevant, appropriate message of truth - a message that is carried on the heels of a simple walk across the room.
If you are not currently in a Bridges small group don't worry! New groups are forming for this four-week focus. Groups meet Sunday morning, Sunday evenings, and throughout the week, so there are plenty of opportunities to take part.

Life By Design is a new message series at Bridges, Sunday mornings, January 11 – February 15, 2009, 10 a.m., at MATC in Mequon
Design: 1. To make or execute plans; 2. To have a goal or purpose in mind.
Life: 1. A living being, especially a person; 2. The physical, mental, and spiritual experiences that constitute existence; 3. The interval of time between birth and death
Did you know your life has a design? Of course it does because God created you. King David said to God, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” God said, “I know the plans I have for you.” Who you are, how you were made, how you function is all part of God’s design for you! The very purpose for your life is woven into your design.
Life By Design, a six-week series of messages taught by Mike Kleven, Bridges’ lead pastor, will help you understand who you, why you are here, and how to live the life you were designed to live. If you’ve ever wonder why life isn’t working they way you think it should, or you feel like there must be more to life than what you’ve experienced so far, then Life By Design is for you.
