"He has put a new song in my mouth-Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the LORD."
Psalm 40:3
From the Bridge General Manager
What a joy it has been to see the Lord's blessings move upon this His radio station. We have added several new exciting teachers, grown our sponsorship and are blessed with new listener prayer and financial support. As we move into the New Year, new challenges lie ahead. The exciting 89.7 expansion is becoming a reality, we are in the mist of planning our exciting Bridgefest 2012 outreach event and we continue to reach outside the local area with our new internet player and quality smart phone apps. We at The Bridge will not rest on our laurels. With your prayers and support together we can bring Gods holy word to a dying world.
Many Blessings,
Paul Bohlinger
January Featured Teacher - Chris McCarrick - Upon This Rock
 Upon This Rock - Weekdays at 5 am & pm EST
Our Featured Teacher for the month of January is Pastor Chris McCarrick of Cornerstone Calvary Chapel in Howell, NJ. In addition to his weekday spots, his radio program "Upon this Rock" can be heard Saturdays at 4pm EST, as well as his Sunday morning service live Sundays at 9:25am EST.
As we start a new year, here is a special greeting from Pastor Chris:
As we come to this new year, I am very excited to see what God has done through the ministry of The Bridge. As Paul the apostle wrote in Eph 3:20-21"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen."
God has truly done great things! We give him all the glory and honor for the work that He has done. I pray that we see even greater things in the days to come.
In these days of great turmoil in the world, it is a blessing to know and be a part of a ministry that daily proclaims the Word of God with power and simplicity.
Paul also wrote "faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God" and I pray that as you hear the Word being taught on the Bridge that you will grow more and more in the knowledge of the truth and that your love may abound for God and His people.

Mission 89.7 FM - Our Signal Will Soon Reach 1.1 Million People!
This month we got the "OK" to submit the changes to the 89.7 radio antenna tower as minor changes which will not require we go before the town board. This is great news because it will speed up the permit process. As of now the schedule will have the new expanded signal activated in mid-February. Praise our Lord for the small details! Continue to pray for the process to move along smoothly.
