[Sunday] Christ the King Sunday 2022
Just as Christ is “the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end,” at the close of every liturgical year, we look forward with a renewed hope in Christ’s coming again in glory to reign as Lord forever. In the same way, we look forward to our own resurrection and the time of a new earth — an earth that is no longer broken by sin and groaning. Christ will come again in glory just as surely as He came the first time — when He was born. So we have “transition” at the end of the “long green season” into the Advent season, the new beginning of the liturgical year.
Jesus, who called his disciples, now sends them on their first mission trip, to tell that the kingdom of God is at hand. Is that threatening language from Jesus a clue that we better shape up, or is it a promise of hope for all those who feel like a sheep without a shepherd?
What Had happened at Grace this week.
We are the recipients of God's overflowing grace and boundless love. This gift transforms our very identity, compelling us toward a life of radical gratitude and contagious generosity. Let's fully embrace this joyful way to live by sharing our time, talents, and resources.
Moving past a fearful view of evangelism, the richer meaning of the Great Commission is found in Christ's established authority, which turns our lives into a confident declaration of His victory.
The richer truth of Genesis 1 is that God's creation was a deliberate, harmonious song that continues, through Christ, to restore the dissonance of our chaotic world.

What Had happened at Grace this week.
Overturning the common belief that grace is reluctantly earned, the freely given reality of the Gospel is that God's salvation flows from His eager delight to love and forgive us.

[Sunday] Cares of the Heart - Triple H
For all those whose hearts have been hurt, to those who have been thrown away and told you don’t belong here, we see that Jesus comes into the midst of them to change and heal hearts.

[Sunday] Use Your Head - Triple H - Reformation
Whether we are as dense as Derek Zoolander or as smart as Stephen Hawking, we can all have the same problem: a lack of being curious and a neglect of learning the voice of the Good Shepherd. But as we engage the voice, we will find our actions and activities will sound like the Good Shepherd.

Tripple H: Head, Heart, Hands (Teaching Series)
Jesus is standing on the shore calling Peter and the other disciples to follow him. He says, "Come follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Jesus, in this one phrase, is calling them into stewardship in God’s Kingdom, calling them in head, heart, and hands.
