Christ stated in II Peter 2:9 that we are to be a royal priesthood, which means "Bridge Builder". This is when one chooses Christ as their Savior; the One who bridged the gap between us and God.
Now through our personal relationship with Christ, he desires that we, the Christian men be the bridge between man and Christ. Through prayer, counsel, and leading by example; we are to help our fellow man to begin and continue an authentic and personal relationship with Christ. We at Bridge of Life envision men and young men choosing Christ, crossing barriers and connecting to Christ in a relationship that gives life with a purpose.
