Assessment

Bridger Church is a new Acts 29 church plant launching in Bozeman, Montana in 2026, led by Todd Hickox. Distinct from Cornerstone Church Bozeman (also Acts 29, already in directory). For men in the Gallatin Valley, Bridger represents a new gospel-centered, complementarian plant option. Verify launch status and elder-board composition directly given the recent launch date.
