Jun 7 Sun  All Graduating Seniors! Let’s celebrate YOU! Fill out the form and join us LIVE on Facebook! Jun 10 Wed  Early on in The Hunger Games, we realize it is set in a world none of us would want to live in yet it is ironically similar to our own. A place of shocking inequity, the rich thrive at the expense of the poor and grow stronger on the suffering of the powerless. Shimmering technological advances contrast comically with the natural world. And self absorbed people seek entertainment in unspeakable violence. This study helps us consider what choices and consequences of characters in this fictional world can teach us about life in our own world. It guides us toward the Bible’s teachings on how we should live in a world pervasively darkened by sin. It asks us to consider the consequences of our own actions. And ultimately, this study points to the promise that hope and love can not only survive but change a world like ours. It is important and very helpful (not 100% necessary) to have watched the first movie OR have the first book. The movie is rated PG-13. Subscribe to filtered calendar View all Events |
THE MISSION of Great Bridge Presbyterian Church is to share the love of God and His promise of salvation with all people, equipping them to mature in Jesus Christ. Our vision focuses on the first three words of this tagline, “sharing Christ’s love.” The vision of GBPC is to share Christ’s love through one million touches in our church, our community, our country, and throughout the world. The vision statement is patterned after Jesus’ command to His disciples in Acts 1:8, that empowered by the Holy Spirit they should be His witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. In order to “equip God’s people,” we provide multiple ways for people to Worship, Grow and Serve–see where YOU connect! |
