		<description>Your Website Evangelist 

Thank you for visiting The Glory Land. Please leave a short message with your name or your site. I also want to thank you for spreading the Word of this website. My goals are to lead people to Christ and to disciple them in the right path. I strongly believe in soul winning&quot; Salvation through faith and Grace of GOD. And that Jesus Christ is the only way.

		<description>I am sorry. This is the type web site I wanted to come up with some time back unfortunately I could no measure up to the rate at which you required me to build it and the time resource I had to build it up was too limited otherwise I give a go ahead to the idea. I believe one day this dream of mine will come to reality.
God bless you</description>

		<description>Living Water Home Spa Shop (http://www.homespashop.com) is a bridge site as you described it . . we are attempting to help people to understand that true refreshment can not come from a spa treatments or salons, but only by relaxing, seeking God and building a personal relationship with our Savior. 

Our &quot;About&quot; page explains the concept, and we have a &quot;Dedicate Your life to Jesus Christ&quot; page that includes links and information to help people understand who Jesus is and how to commit their life to His purposes. (http://www.homespashop.com/jesus). We also have a Christian Stress Relief page that links to a stress relief prayer page.

We sell home spa and home decor products on the site. Product descriptions include scripture to help visitors become familiar with the Word, and the inspiration, life, and hope promised to all believers. We also place our links in some non-traditional places for Christian businesses purposefully to &quot;fish&quot; for the lost. 

We get hits on our &quot;Jesus&quot; page each day  . . .  We believe our day would not be complete unless we knew at least one seeker found a place to get answers. 

Would love to share ideas with other bridge sites. Have a Blessed &amp; Fruitful Day!</description>

		<description>I wholeheartedly agree with what you say.

My own site does not fit the traditional &#039;bridge&#039; model you describe, but it still works that way.

Most of the material on our web site is intended for Christians, but there is a section with articles of a more general nature.  I provide opportunities for people to respond to what they read, and get a good number of responses - including a fair number of non-Christians responding to the Christian articles.

I put a reasonable amount of work into communicating Christian truth without the jargon, and this approach gets a good response.  People keep telling me there are too few sites attempting this!</description>
