Where Sunday's Message Meets Everyday Life

  • My Ideal Candidate…

    As I write this, we are one week from election day. We have heard (endlessly) from both major political parties that this election will determine the future of our nation. Each party’s candidate declares that they will lead us to peace and prosperity, while the other party will lead us to ruin. The ads that Continue reading

  • From Grief to Glory…

    Today, there is just a heaviness in my heart. I grieve over the divisions in our country that seem to become greater with each passing day.I grieve over the bitter and harsh attitudes of those we have chosen to lead us.I grieve over the callous disregard to common decency.I grieve over the seeming unimportance of Continue reading

  • … because it was bitter

    As we read through God’s Word, we sometimes come to stories that seem a bit odd, and here is one of them from Exodus 15 – 22 Then Moses led Israel from the Red Sea and they went into the Desert of Shur. For three days they traveled in the desert without finding water. 23 When they came to Marah, Continue reading

  • Take Everything…

    Sometimes you hear a song and it wrecks you on the inside. You get the sense of “Woe is me! For I am undone.” No matter how many years you may have walked with Christ or how much you’ve grown in the faith, you realize just how far you are from where you desire to Continue reading

  • Draw Near to God…

    Reading from James this morning, I came across this familiar passage that is both comforting and challenging. Take a look at it. 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and Continue reading

As we take the first steps moving out of our homes and back into some kind of normalcy, we need wisdom, courage, and humility. In an effort to encourage prayer, Grace Fellowship is providing different areas needing prayer. These will Continue reading

  • One Body – Many Members…

    Paul uses the human body as an illustration of what the body of Christ is like. As the body is made up of different parts with each part performing a unique function, so it is with the church. Each member of the body is uniquely gifted by God to work alongside all the other parts Continue reading

  • By the Grace Given to Me…

    The Apostle Paul was gifted man. As a Pharisee, he strove to be the best Pharisee possible in an effort to stand head and shoulders above the rest. As a Christian, he poured his talents and energies into spreading the good news of Jesus, planting churches, shaping church leaders, and encouraging believers. He was an Continue reading

  • Be Transformed…

    Let’s pick up where we left off yesterday in Romans 12:2. Yesterday, we focused on Paul’s warning not to be conformed to this world. Today, we look at the positive alternative to that – transformation. The word “transformed” comes from the Greek metamorphoo. If that word looks familiar, it should. That’s were our word metamorphosis Continue reading

  • Do Not Be Conformed…

    Fads and trends come and go. Some people seem to be immune to them, while others chase them with great passion. The fad may involve a particular style or brand of clothing, a trendy new vehicle that everyone wants to drive, or the latest phone or techie gadget. None of us are immune to hopping Continue reading
