About Us

Welcome!

The Bridge Church Of God In Christ is a Christ-centered community committed to biblical teaching, authentic worship, discipleship, and holy living. We exist to help people grow in a real and faithful relationship with Jesus Christ, rooted in truth, shaped by obedience, and expressed through love.

Our church was founded under the visionary leadership of Dr. Ronald K. Norman, whose faithfulness to God’s calling and commitment to sound doctrine helped establish the spiritual foundation of this ministry. His legacy continues to influence our values, our preaching, and our approach to ministry.

Today, The Bridge is being faithfully led through a season of renewal and rebuilding, with a focus on discipleship, spiritual formation, and cultivating a healthy, grounded church community. We remain committed to the foundation that has been laid while seeking God’s direction for the work ahead, trusting Him to shape our future as we walk in obedience together.

Founding Pastor

Dr. Ronald K. Norman

The Bridge Church Of God In Christ was founded under the visionary leadership of Dr. Ronald K. Norman, whose faith, obedience to God’s calling, and commitment to biblical truth laid the foundation for this ministry.


Through decades of faithful service, Dr. Norman shepherded the church with wisdom, integrity, and a deep love for God’s people. His leadership emphasized sound doctrine, authentic worship, and practical faith for everyday life—values that continue to shape who we are as a church today.


Though he has gone on to be with the Lord, Dr. Norman’s legacy remains evident in the life, mission, and spiritual DNA of The Bridge. We honor his memory with gratitude and commit ourselves to stewarding the work he began for the glory of God.

Beliefs

OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH

We believe the Bible to be the inspired written Word of God.

We believe that there is only One God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and, God the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church Of God, which is in Christ, at His return.

We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ.

We believe that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.

We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer.

We believe that the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for Him.

We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in the present world.

When God has something for you to do, don’t expect to be comfortable doing something else.
