Eternal Influence part 1 12/26/2025

Eternal Influence part 1 With our country in upheaval, there’s never been a time when the good news of salvation through Christ has been more needed. And I know you have loved ones who are unsaved. How do we reach these people without offending them or alienating them? John chapter four will be our focus. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39481450

The Light of the World part 2 12/25/2025

The Light of the World part 2 Today, pastor Lloyd will put the finishing touches on on our Christmas series by taking us to John’s gospel for a message titled “The Light of the World”. This world is certainly in need of a some light, wouldn’t you agree? Jesus came to the earth to provide that light and to show us the way to heaven - by dying on a cross for our sins. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39481435

The Light of the World part 1 12/24/2025

The Light of the World part 1 Today we continue pastor Lloyd’s series for the Christmas season. We’’ll be looking at the reason Jesus came to the earth today - to shine the light of righteousness and salvation, in a dark and troubled world. Scientists will tell you that even as advanced as science knowledge is, we still don’t know all that much about light. Lloyd will tell us about the greatest light - and the brightest - God’s light! /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39481430

The Account of the Birth of Christ part 2 12/23/2025

The Account of the Birth of Christ part 2 Even atheists know the story of the manger, Joseph and Mary, and all the rest. But instead of embracing the miracle of the birth of our savior, many people choose today to simply pass it off as a myth. Today our special Christmas series continues as pastor Lloyd takes us back to that cold night over two thousand years ago. Join us in Luke chapters one and two. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39481415

The Account of the Birth of Christ part 1 12/22/2025

The Account of the Birth of Christ part 1 Today we’ll consider the most significant birth in the history of man. Over two thousand years ago, a baby was born into the world under the most inauspicious of circumstances. But the life He led and the reason He came to the earth make this event truly life-changing. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39481405

Journey to Rome Pt 2 - Struck By The Serpent part 2 12/19/2025

Journey to Rome Pt 2 - Struck By The Serpent part 2 Today we present pastor Lloyd’s final study in Acts. If you’ve been with us since the beginning, you’ve witnessed some incredible things! You may recall that the Lord promised Paul that He’d be in Rome one day, and today is that day. Our final study is in the final chapter of this amazing account, written by Doctor Luke. Join us in Acts twenty-eight. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39407390

Journey to Rome Pt 2 - Struck By The Serpent part 1 12/18/2025

Journey to Rome Pt 2 - Struck By The Serpent part 1 Today we begin pastor Lloyd’s final study in the book of Acts, as we turn to chapter twenty-eight. What an incredible journey it’s been, to see the birth of the Christian church, the descending of the Holy Spirit, the conversion of Saul, and all the other things that have happened in this book. Paul finds himself now shipwrecked and on the island of Malta. But God had promised him that he would make it to Rome, the voyage would resume, and not even a serpent could prevent that from happening! /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39407385

Paul’s Leadership on Voyage Home part 2 12/17/2025

Paul’s Leadership on Voyage Home part 2 We are just a few days away from finishing our study through Acts, as we find ourselves today in chapter twenty-seven. Paul and his companions are headed back to Rome, and as often happens, they encounter some pretty severe weather. Obviously, we can see a great lesson headed our way as the storm they encountered teaches us some vital principles on how to handle the storms of life. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39407380

Paul’s Leadership on Voyage Home part 1 12/16/2025

Paul’s Leadership on Voyage Home part 1 As we near the finish line in our series through the book of Acts, we will begin a study in chapter twenty-seven. Here we will once again sail the sea with the Apostle Paul as his journey to spread the gospel continues. If Paul had had one of those disposable cameras on board, the pictures he took would have shown a great deal of panic amongst his fellow passengers. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39407375

Paul Before Roman Leaders Pt 2B 12/15/2025

Paul Before Roman Leaders Pt 2B Today we continue verse by verse through Acts chapter twenty-six with Paul’s defense before King Agrippa and Festus the Roman governor. In presenting his defense, Paul recounts his conversion experience and calling by God to make him a minister and witness of Jesus. Paul seeks to fulfill this gift and privilege of life and service that God gave to him as a gift back to God, despite the cost to his own life. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39407370

Paul Before the Roman Leaders part 1 12/12/2025

Paul Before the Roman Leaders part 1 Today, pastor Lloyd continues his study through the book of Acts, chapter twenty-five, as we continue with Paul’s defense before those who are unjustly incarcerating him. Instead of seeking to be released from imprisonment, Paul uses these circumstances to proclaim the gospel and the power of God to his captors. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39319460

Paul - Faithful On Trial Part 2 12/11/2025

Paul - Faithful On Trial Part 2 Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley, will remind us that satan is still very much in the business of “rocking that cradle”. We’re currently studying through the book of Acts and we've come to chapters twenty-four and twenty-five. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39319435

Paul - Faithful on Trial part 1 12/10/2025

Paul - Faithful on Trial part 1 Today we’ll be in Acts chapter twenty-four, as we continue with Paul’s defense before the Jewish and Roman authorities. Paul has been accused of sedition, but his only offense is preaching the gospel message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39319420

Paul’s Faithful Witness part 2 12/09/2025

Paul’s Faithful Witness part 2 As we continue pastor Lloyd’s series in Acts, we find the apostle Paul needing some encouragement from the Lord. Paul finally had an opportunity to tell his fellow countrymen about Jesus, but before he can, they take offense to him and a riot breaks out. If it weren’t for the Roman Guard he would have been killed. God promises to always be by our side, and He came to His servant Paul’s rescue, and said to him “be of good cheer.” /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39319390

Paul’s Faithful Witness part 1 12/08/2025

Paul’s Faithful Witness part 1 On today’s broadcast we will hear the Apostle Paul’s testimony and defense before the Jews. Acts chapter twenty-two contains these amazing and forceful words. We find Paul finally given his long awaited opportunity to share Jesus with his fellow countrymen, the Jews. And isn’t it instructive that he does so with his testimony. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39319370

Paul’s Determination, God’s Leading part 2 12/05/2025

Paul’s Determination, God’s Leading part 2 We are currently in the home stretch of pastor Lloyd’s series through Acts, titled “The World Upside Down”. It’s only logical to think that if you are going to turn the world upside down, you are going to face some opposition. What should be our response to this opposition? Pastor Lloyd has one word to share - determination! /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39203280

Paul’s Determination, God’s Leading part 1 12/04/2025

Paul’s Determination, God’s Leading part 1 The growth of the Church is largely due to the missionary activities of the apostle Paul and those who faithfully served with him. On today’s broadcast Paul has completed his third missionary journey, and is headed for Jerusalem. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39203275

Example & Exhortation on Spiritual Leadership part 2 12/03/2025

Example & Exhortation on Spiritual Leadership part 2 Our teacher is pastor Lloyd Pulley, who is currently taking us verse by verse through the book of Acts. We begin today's’ broadcast with the apostle Paul encouraging young Timothy that now is not the time to take it easy - but to press forward for the Kingdom of God. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39203270

Example & Exhortation on Spiritual Leadership part 1 12/02/2025

Example & Exhortation on Spiritual Leadership part 1 On the broadcast today we meet up with the Apostle Paul in Acts chapter twenty, and he’s convening a pastor’s conference of sorts. Paul gathers the elders of the Church and encourages them in their calling. Perhaps you need some encouragement in your calling - we all do from time to time. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39203265

Troubles and Triumphs on the Trail part 2 12/01/2025

Troubles and Triumphs on the Trail part 2 Success in life, especially for the Christian, involves perseverance, faith and staying on course. The life of the Apostle Paul reflects these qualities, and so we’ll look today at Acts chapters nineteen and twenty. Paul was a single-minded man after his conversion. His single motivation was Jesus Christ. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39203255

Troubles and Triumphs on the Trail part 1 11/28/2025

Troubles and Triumphs on the Trail part 1 Today, as we continue our series in Acts, we’ll meet up again with Paul and his crew, as they share the gospel message with the unsaved. Some triumphs were accomplished, but they also met a lot of resistance. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39145610

Power of His Spirit, Effectiveness of His Word part 2 11/27/2025

Power of His Spirit, Effectiveness of His Word part 2 Can you imagine what it must have been like to be in Doctor Luke’s shoes? He not only witnessed the life and miracles of Jesus Christ, he got to travel with Paul the apostle and see him spread the gospel! Today we’ll return to a scene in which Paul encountered some people who called themselves “disciples”, yet they didn’t know a thing about the Holy Spirit. Were they saved? /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39145605

Power of His Spirit, Effectiveness of His Word part 1 11/26/2025

Power of His Spirit, Effectiveness of His Word part 1 In the first several verses of Acts chapter nineteen, we find Paul in Ephesus, talking to a group of disciples who are sharing God’s love, but have never even heard of the Holy Spirit! Now, their motivation was pure, but their doctrine was incomplete. Many Christians today tend to talk about God’s magnificent love, and Jesus’ atoning death on the cross, but neglect the role the Holy Spirit plays in our lives. Here’s Lloyd Pulley with today’s study. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39145595

The Corinthian Encounter part 2 11/25/2025

The Corinthian Encounter part 2 Well, elections took place about three weeks ago. Those of us who voted trust that the candidates we supported will follow through on their campaign promises. Some of them do, but a lot of them don’t. Most politicians say what they think we want to hear, and when they’re elected, they come down with a sudden case of amnesia! It’s a matter of living out your convictions. The same can be said of our walk with Jesus Christ. Do you live by the convictions of a life given over to God? Or are they just hollow words? /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39145590

The Corinthian Encounter part 1 11/24/2025

The Corinthian Encounter part 1 Lloyd will continue his series through Acts today with a stop in chapter eighteen. If you have someone in your life who lives by their convictions, you know what a unique trait that really is. You may be such a person yourself. Too many people today say one thing and live their lives another way. In Acts chapter eighteen, Paul finds himself in Corinth, and addresses the issue of Christians living by their convictions. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39145570

Impacting the World Part 2b 11/21/2025

Impacting the World Part 2b As Paul continued to share the truth of the gospel message, he is definitely impacting those around him. Can the same be said of us? one of Paul’s main points centered around the need for repentance. It’s foundational part of our salvation. Our scripture reference is Acts chapter seventeen. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39055835

Impacting the World Part 2a 11/20/2025

Impacting the World Part 2a Today we’ll continue our series in Acts, as we observe Paul setting the record straight about darkness and light - and how we can truly overcome the darkness in this world. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39055820

Impacting the World Part 1b 11/19/2025

Impacting the World Part 1b Today Lloyd will again take us to the book of Acts, as he continues with his verse by verse journey through this remarkable book. Lloyd is going to make several important points today about repentance. It’s a word that has a negative connotation attached to it - one that it doesn’t deserve. Paul’s message in Acts was one of repentance, and it wasn’t too well received. /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39055805

Impacting the World Part 1a 11/18/2025

Impacting the World Part 1a Today we’ll resume our series called “The World Upside Down”, with a study in Acts chapter seventeen. We’ll be looking at how the ministry of Paul and Barnabas and friends, was literally turning the world upside down! This message of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ was controversial to say the least, but it was saving a lot of souls! /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39055795

First Church Born in Europe part 2 11/17/2025

First Church Born in Europe part 2 Imagine how Paul felt as he made his way to Europe to share the gospel with people he knew would be very hostile to the message. Did it keep him from going? No! He relied on God to be his strength in time of trouble and threat. A great example for us today, wouldn’t you agree? /episode/index/show/bridgingthegapwithlloydpulley/id/39055775
