[Sunday] You Are Stars - Missio Dei Part 5
Just as taking in a panoramic view can remind us that everything will be okay, Revelation 7 and the promises of God invite us to step back and behold the ultimate beautiful picture.

What Had happened at Grace this week.
we explored Mark 6, examining Jesus's rejection in Nazareth, the sending of the Twelve, the contrast between Herod's failed leadership and Jesus's true shepherding in the feeding of the five thousand, and how the disciples' hardened hearts reveal our own need for faith and grace.
We wrapped up Philippians by exploring unity in Christ, rejoicing and prayerful peace, virtuous focus, learned contentment through Christ’s strength, generous partnership as worship, identity in Christ amid Paul’s imprisonments, the Saul/Paul name usage, and the gospel’s reach—even into Caesar’s household.
When anxiety hits, we usually tell ourselves “faith over fear.” but perhaps God is calling us to something deeper: faith with the fear of the Lord. See how the massive, awesome power of God is actually the perfect resting place for our fearful hearts.

[Sunday] The Bow - Missio Dei Part 5
When we read the flood story, it's so easy to focus on the destruction, but the true focus is the rainbow. 1 Peter chapter 3 shows us something amazing: God’s bow points us straight to the cross, the empty tomb, and the hope we have in deep waters.

[Sunday] Witness & See - Missio Dei Part 5
