IG Hosts Women's Conference in Medellín, Colombia

October 31, 2025

Recently, five members from our Iglesia Gracia campus traveled to Medellín, Colombia, to host a conference for women’s ministry leaders from over 30 different local churches. This conference used Biblical Femininity as the framework to study what it looks like to invite, nurture, and partner, to live like a child of God rather than an orphan, to share testimonies, and so much more.

Students Spotlight | Hard Questions

October 24, 2025

One of the central facets of our student ministry is teaching our teens to study and apply God’s Word. Recently, our Forge high school students worked through a new series called Hard Questions. This series helped our students to engage difficult questions regarding God, the Bible, and our faith. As they brought questions and doubts into the light of God’s Word, they were able to see how people of faith have always wrestled with these topics, and also how God has answered them in Scripture.

Mission Trip Highlight | France 2025

At Harrison Bridge, there is a growing partnership with missionaries located in Grenoble, France, who are working to strengthen the local church and disciple individuals in their community. Some of our HB members recently traveled to France to share teaching resources, hold a men's conference, help with various construction projects, and more. Jonathan Pitts was invited on that mission trip, but his business had just closed a week before being asked—paralyzing him with fear.

Hurricane Helene: A Year in Review

October 1, 2025

It’s been a year since Hurricane Helene’s powerful winds and record-breaking rainfall swept through our area, causing power outages, widespread destruction, catastrophic flooding and landslides, and the loss of many lives. Our sparse tree canopies, repair bills, and lingering debris piles continue to remind us that recovery has been slow and complex, with the long-term effects still unfolding. While there is still so much that needs to be done—and so many lives are forever changed—this anniversary is also an opportunity to look back and be reminded of God’s faithfulness and provision throughout this catastrophe.
