The Leadership
Team
God has blessed us with
dynamic individuals who are gifted in their respective areas. The
Leadership at Life Bridge exists to bring the Church into community
with each other and relationship with God. They are here to serve
you.
Bill Campbell
Pastor Bill Campbell began the journey of living life based on relationship with Christ as a young child. Bill grew up in the home of a minister and was engaged in ministry with his parents in the rescue mission they founded in Duncan, Oklahoma. He attended Oklahoma Baptist University and began his adult ministry as a youth pastor in Irving, Texas and later as the senior pastor of that same church. In 1986, Bill began serving on staff at Calvary Church in Irving, Texas, under the leadership of Pastor J. Don George. First Assembly of God, Fort Myers, Fl., was the next ministry assignment serving as the Senior Associate to Pastor Dan Betzer. Then in 2001, God gave a clear call to Fort Wayne, IN! Out of the call, Life Bridge Church was formed in 2004, and Bill became the founding and senior pastor. It has been amazing to watch God shape the ministry of Life Bridge since its inception. In addition to pastoring, Bill enjoys time with family and friends and especially enjoys the official role of ‘granddad’. Don’t tell him that the grandkids only love him for the games on his iPhone!
