June 23rd - Fri. June 27th 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 Noon DETAILS Thank you for taking time to view all that our church has to offer. We are a fellowship of people who have been transformed by the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, His sacrifice for us, and His life in us. The best way to find out Jesus can transform your life is to come for a visit and see for yourself that we are a small church located on Harstine Island, about 12 miles north of Shelton, Washington. We were founded in 1996 and worshiped in the Harstine Island Community Hall until our new church building was completed in 2009. We are the only church on the island. Our congregation is made up of people from many Christian traditions, yet we find unity in our relationship with God. We hope you will find that we are a church where the Holy Spirit and the love of Christ is present in our worship, fellowship, prayer, Bible studies and our various ministries. We sincerely hope you will join us on Sunday mornings at 9:30 a.m. for adult or teen Bible study, and at 10:30 a.m. for a refreshing time of worship and study of God's word. We look forward to meeting you and answering any questions you may have. All are welcome at Bridge Community Church and we look forward to your visit! The best way to find out how Jesus can transform your life is to come for a visit and see for yourself! Sincerely, Pastor John Martin and all the congregation at Bridge Community Church.

Victory (1 Corinthians 15:57) Sermon Outline: Introduction ~ Scripture describes us as either dead to God or to sin Background ~ you cannot be a Christian without dying Col 3:3 when mankind defied God there were consequences Gen 2:17 Adam & Eve disobeyed & consequences have followed Gen 5:5 all of us are guilty of this same rebellion Rom 5:12 we set ourselves up as gods in the place of God 2 Thess 2:4 Replacing God ~ we try to be our own god & make a mess of it we follow the family tradition of defying God Col 1:21a we weren’t created to exist apart form God Gen 1:26 trying to be our own little gods, we die Rom 7:11 that’s not what God intends for us Rom 8:7-8 Death ~ doesn’t have to be the end; we find God @ work Col 3:3 even so, what we were must be taken out of the way Gal 2:20 through the Holy Spirit we begin to change Gal 5:16 Col 3:3 this “death” (ἀπεθάνετε) [ăp ĕth ănʹ ĕt ĕ] is in the aorist tense we die to those things which were once what we lived for Col 3:3 we gain new life as we’re transformed Gal 3:17 Rom 6:5-6 Perfection ~ is God’s intent for us, yet He knows we cannot do it “I have met the enemy, & he is me” Phil 2:5-7 2 Cor 5:16-17 we become dead to the world & alive to God in Christ Col 3:3 Our Part ~ how might we cooperate w/God? Spiritual Disciplines they help us allow the Lord to work in our lives Col 3:5 John 15:5-6 Application ~ you may be wondering how? this is simple, but not easy you face every decision you need to make & admit: “Lord Jesus, I cannot do this, You never said I could” then you confess “However, You can & always said You would!” do that right now For Contemplation: Does my death with Jesus really change how I live right now? Homiletical Idea: “In Christ” my old life has ended. For Prayer: Lord, guide me to live for you and die to my old way of living!

Insert Bulletin Insert Week of February 2, 2025 I cannot decide of this picture makes me cold, or if it warms my heart as I consider worshipping in a beautiful chapel in the middle of God’s amazing creation. Actually, it’s kind of like our little church nestled in the middle of God’s amazing Pacific Northwest creation. OK, I have decided, I am warmed and encouraged. The thing is, no matter where you live, things become familiar. We get comfortable, and then complacent. We have to remind ourselves to be present, to see what’s arounds us. I often catch myself not really seeing the beauty of the surroundings I live in. That’s just wrong! But… even worse than that, I catch myself getting comfortable, and then complacent, in our church and particularly in our time of worship. Think about that, “our time to worship God!” When we gather and begin to sing, I ever so easily go through the motions without ever actually entering into God’s presence. What a waste! And… I suspect that I’m not the only one who does this. But what can we do to correct it? Well, do you take any time on Sunday morning to prepare yourself to be in God’s presence? That is, are you taking any time in prayer to prepare? Are you asking God to meet with you? Are you asking the Holy Spirit to guide you into the presence of the Father? Are you seeking Jesus’ life in you to empower you to rightly worship through you? Even that can become rote and routine, I’m painfully aware of that. When it does, we need to stop and remember, this is God we’re approaching. Stop, pray for spiritual sensitivity, confess your coldness of heart, and seek the Father through the Holy Spirit in Jesus’ cleansing blood.
