Bridging the Gap is an interactive DVD resource especially
useful for small groups.
Its intent is to be a catalyst for courageous conversations and fearless,
love-based relational engagement with gay neighbours.
BTG seeks to
address prevalent questions, attitudes, and hang-ups that keep
Christ-followers from hanging out and being 'Jesus with skin on' for
the gay people in their circle of
influence.
