Scripture: 1 Cor 1:9, Lamentations 3:22-23, Ephesians (Paul's goodbyes to the Ephesians),By Grace Chapel Sermon Media

We’ll look at the third line of the prayer, “Give us this day our daily bread.” There’s an important Greek word, epiousian, translated as “daily.” It’s a word that reminds us of what is essential. We’re praying in part for the bread that feeds our bodies, and even more, our souls. How does Christ satisfy our hungry souls?…

We’ll focus on three sections of the first line, “Our Father,” then “who art in heaven,” and “hallowed be thy name.” What did Jesus mean by these phrases? Through us, people see God, our Father who is in heaven, holy and good, present and real. In your life, are you hallowing God’s name? What do others know of God by watching you?Key Scripture: Mat…

As followers of Jesus, we’re called to do the same.🌿 Are you bringing life to the spaces…

Vision makes us come alive. Ezekiel’s vision of the dry bones coming to life symbolizes the power of God’s Spirit to bring new life to what seems dead and hopeless. God provides vision that revives us. And so what is the vision for our personal lives that we pursue? What about our community? Vision requires a compelling vision and then the need to …

Many have deconstructed their faith, left religion, or the church behind. To some, it feels irrelevant, outdated, and for some involves trauma and hurt.

Modern science, advances in technology, and quality of life have enabled us to live longer. Many fear growing older, or worse, death. There’s a fascination with medical science that prolongs life.

Jesus gave the command to love one another. This was harder than expected. As the Holy Spirit led them, the early followers of Jesus discovered the power of the one-another, irresistible church.
