What Christmas Means For You / Christmas With Grace

We know the Christmas story. We hear it every year. We all know the characters and the setting. It's a great story, but what does this mean for us living 2000 years after this first Christmas? Because while Christmas is supposed to be full of hope and peace, our world doesn't feel anything like that, and neither do our lives! What if the Christmas story wasn't just a story to tell, but an opportunity for us to claim hope, joy and peace for our own lives.

Hope For All People / The Line / Week 3

We know the Christmas story. We know the nativity scene. It's a beautiful story to tell, but it can also seem so far from our reality. Often, our lives feel anything but full of hope, joy, love and peace. Why is that? Maybe we're relying on the wrong things? Maybe it's not about how religious we are, but about grasping something else. That's what we're talking about this week!

When I feel Insignificant / The Line / Week 2

Do you ever have times when you don't feel like you matter all that much? Like you're not that valuable? Of course you do! We all do. You see we all go around looking for things that prove we matter. And we spend much of our lives not only trying to prove our stats to others, but to ourselves, and to God! But what if stats don't matter to God? What if the way He sees our value is nothing compared to how we see it? We're talking about that this week at Grace Church!

Being Made Right With God / The Line / Week 1

There was a moment in time when a line separated everything before it, from everything that came after it. With one baby's birth our historical timeline changed from B.C. to A.D, but so did so much more. The Bible tells us that even today, there is a line that exists that causes us to feel like we're distant from God. Like He's on one side and we're on the other. So if we have the desire to get right with God, how is that line erased?
