GIVING OUR ALL FOR JESUS
“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself” (Luke 10:27).
While this pandemic has left many people anxious, restless, overwhelmed, or all of the above, we believe that our mission as a church has not changed: Boldly leading people to a transformed life in Christ.
Throughout the quarantine, we have developed and compiled many resources to help our church family pursue this transformed life to the fullest as we seek to give our all to the Lord Jesus:
1. Devotional Videos – On our Facebook and Instagram accounts, we published multiple videos focusing on what it looks like to follow Jesus with all that we are, not only as individuals, but also with our families and our church. You can access the videos here.
2. Online Resources – For those that want to go deeper, you’ll find additional resources below for both individuals and families. As you use these resources, ask the Holy Spirit to guide and strengthen you as you give your all for Jesus.
3. Team Ministry Spiritual Gifts Survey – As we move forward with our reopening plans, we’re encouraging everyone to complete this Spiritual Gifts Survey to help you identify your God-given spiritual gifts. Our goal is to position our church for effective ministry by helping every Faithbridge member develop their spiritual gifts and discover their place in ministry.

ABOUT ALL FOR JESUS
We know that “quarantine fatigue” is real, but for those who are weary, nothing satisfies like the abundant, transformed life that Jesus offers us. He is the one who calls us to himself in our time of greatest need:
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls” (Matthew 11:28–29).
When we place our trust in Jesus, he calls us to give him everything we are, not so we can continue striving, but so we can finally rest in the fact that he is all we really need. This truth is the lynchpin to living a transformed life and applies to much more than our spiritual condition.
As Jesus’ words in Luke 10:27 teach us, the transformed life he offers applies to every dimension of our lives:
Emotional (Heart)
Spiritual (Soul)
Physical (Strength)
Mental (Mind)
Relational (Neighbor)
As a church, we are dedicated to cultivating transformation in every aspect of our lives. We look forward to growing with you as we pursue this transformed life together!
