[Sunday] Restoration - Forgiving Challenge
While Peter may still be pining over his past, Jesus is hyper-focused on pointing Peter towards the future. Jesus restores the original call He placed on his life. Not only does God forgive you, but God loves you.

What Had happened at Grace this week.
We are dusting off the Catechism to discover that the Creed is not just a list of principles to memorize, but a testimony of a God who created, redeemed, and sanctified you.
We celebrated Epiphany with gift bow games and a family gathering where we participated in a “regift” exchange. It was a fun way to close out the Christmas season together.
This week, we began our study of the book of Joel, exploring its major themes of judgment, genuine repentance, and God's ultimate promise of restoration and the outpouring of His Spirit.
While earthly rulers try to hijack the story of the Magi to claim power, the gifts of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh reveal a King who rules through sacrifice and death, calling us to abandon the world's version of greatness for a "different way."
Just as the Apollo 8 astronauts were awed by our tiny planet in a vast universe, Simeon’s joy reminds us that God proves His love by entering the most "insignificant" places—a manger, a small town, and our own ordinary lives—to bring us peace.
More than just a decoration, the Christmas tree stands as a symbol of the "Feast of Adam and Eve," proclaiming that the New Adam has come to restore Paradise.

[Sunday] Absolution - Forgiving Challenge
Jesus beautifully recreates Peter’s worst moment in order to show how Jesus is unafraid to enter into our worst moments, which gives us enough grace to cover even the worst parts of our stories.

The Creed cuts through the noise of our own unworthiness to name us as 'good' creatures, loved by a God who honors our flesh and blood enough to redeem it, not just replace it.

[Sunday] Confession - Forgiving Challenge
Much like with Peter, Jesus invites all of us back into His presence through confession. But this practice simply shows Jesus positioning Himself to give us His grace, even if we don’t have the words to say how we feel.

[Sunday] S.C.A.R.S. - Forgiving Challenge
Today we look back at the time when a resurrected Jesus burst into the disciples’ room. One of the surprising elements of the glorified body of Jesus was that scars remained on His hands. What does this weird detail say about God, and us, as we think about forgiveness and freedom?

[Sunday] The Party - Titus Chapter 3
On one side you have an unhinged society, and on the other you have the strict law of compliance. But when it seems we are offered only those two realities, Paul reminds us that we are already at the party.

QUESTIONS FOR THE WEEK: The Party
What do Christians often quarrel with those outside of the faith about? What do christians quarrel with those inside of the faith about? Why do you think they do that?
Read Titus 3. What advice does Paul give to us? Why can christians be free to live gentle lives and avoid such quarrels?
Titus is clear that we are to stand firm in the freedom of the death and resurrection of Jesus. That Jesus alone has saved us. How does this impact your walk with God and your neighbors around you?
New Song this Sunday

Ghostbusters, Gozer, and Jesus
When I was a kid, a young kid, say five years old, my dad was approached by one of our neighbors, who wanted to know if everything was OK in our house. My dad was perplexed because, on our quiet cul-de-sac, everything was always OK. Nothing exciting ever happened and that was how the residents on the quiet cul-de-sac liked things………………………
