What Had happened at Grace this week.
Bible study explored the Gospel of Mark, discussing its three-act structure, Jesus’ identity as the true Son of God, and how His upside-down kingdom—revealed through parables, miracles, and His passion—confronts evil, forgives sins, and calls us to sacrificial discipleship.
Jesus specializes in choosing the unimpressive, the broken, and the flawed to represent His presence and love to the world. You are a royal priesthood!
On Thursday, July 30th, the families at Grace had a great time meeting up at the St. Lucie West fire station.
From the beginning, God has been sending his spirit out to bring life and beauty in the universe. It's a great sending. In this sending, we can see the heart of God as we join in with God’s mission.
Virtually every life transforming event recorded in Scripture includes a journey, a process the people involved go through that leads to insight, transformation and new life for all willing to engage that journey. The journey always includes elements of sacrifice, worship, trust and faith. Christmas is about Jesus making the journey from heaven to earth, for the Magi it was the journey from wisdom to humility. For us, it is a journey to wonder and new life.
Jesus frees us from the pressure of having to pray the "perfect" way. Because He is the Lamb who was slain, you can pray boldly knowing your Father in heaven hears you!
