Reverend Bren Gandy-Wilson sees a bridge as a means of connection or transition; and spiritual discernment as being able to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit and comprehend that which is not evident to the carnal mind. In time this ability to grasp and understand leads to a deepening humility as the Holy Spirit leads one into becoming a vessel that God can use for His Glory.
In Women Are Spiritual Bridges, Bren takes the reader on a journey through her struggles with ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder), and how it affected her childhood, family and marriage relationships.

As a Spiritual Bridge, she was then able to take seriously the great commandment to "love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind (intellect). And a second is like it: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." (Matthew 22:37-38). She came to understand that neighbor included husband, children and family.
As Spiritual Bridges, Bren believes that it has been granted to Women of God (and men as well), the right to suffer for Christ's sake (Phil. 1:29). Yet, when she suffers, if she faithfully represents the message of Christ through word and example, the fruit she will bear in herself and in others will far outweigh the cost. If she endures, her afflictions will seem light compared to the gl
