About Life Bridge Christian Church:
Seeded in prayer by Ignite Church Planting in 2003, Life Bridge Christian Church was planted in Valparaiso, IN because over 1/3 of the local population did not have a regular church. Life Bridge, or LBCC, is a unique non-denominational Christian church where worship takes place in a relaxed coffeehouse-type atmosphere with upbeat, contemporary music and down-to-earth teaching.
