Two years ago, we made a bold decision together. We committed to something bigger than ourselves, trusting that God would meet us in our faithfulness — and He has, in ways that have exceeded anything we could have imagined.

From the very beginning, Burn the Ships was never just about a financial goal. It was about discipleship — growing as followers of Jesus and making more disciples. We dreamed of every person at LifeBridge having a life-changing encounter with God as it relates to their generosity, because we follow a God who is extravagantly generous. I am excited to tell you: that dream is becoming a reality.

As we look towards the last months of Burn the Ships, we want to pause to celebrate the journey itself. Since June 2024, 562 new donors have joined this movement, 1,374 donors total have given toward our goal, and an incredible 23,420 donations have been made. These aren’t just numbers — they represent lives, families, and faith steps that will echo for generations.

Mark Your Calendar!

As we close out Burn the Ships on May 17th, the giving window will remain open for two additional weeks for anyone who would like to complete or exceed their commitment. Now is the time to finish strong. If you’ve been on the fence, or simply want to give one final push, this is your moment. Every gift between now and the end matters.
