Financial Help

The Financial Assistance Ministry is designed to meet the holistic needs of those in our church body and community who are enduring hard times. This ministry’s vision is to walk with an individual or family through whatever situation they are experiencing and to offer financial support and guidance, counseling, and spiritual mentoring. If you are in need of assistance with financial concerns here are a couple of options:

 1. Financial Peace University

We routinely offer a financial counseling course, Financial Peace University, and have found that the biblical financial principles offered in this program are of infinite value in assisting individuals in getting out debt, balancing their budget, and managing their money the way God intends them to manage it. If you are in needs of Financial Assistance then this would be your first and best option.

 2. Meet with a Financial Coach

Financial Coaches are available to take a look at your situation and offer encouragement and guidance for you. Financial Coachs are regular people who have demonstrated faithful stewardship over the resources that God has provided them, have gone through the Financial Peace University Course, and are prepared to deal with any immediate emergency financial concerns that you may have.

3. Seek Pastoral Care & Counseling

Sometimes finances are a problem because individuals are experiencing addictions to substances, gambling, or other addictions. These addictions may complicate financial counseling. If Financial Peace University or Financial Coaching cannot resolve your financial issues, then it is likely that there may be other underlying problems that need to be addressed. If this is the case our pastoral care ministry will be happy to talk with you.

4. Immediate Monetary Relief

Bridge Church does not believe in giving hand-outs, but helps-up! If you need immediate monetary assistance, it is likely that the members of Bridge Church will ask you to begin seeking financial wisdom and counsel. If you have a financial hardship or burden and are in need of immediate monetary assistance, please present these requests to your Life Group. The individuals in your Life Group are the people who will be able to walk along side you best, and will be most able to assist you.
