Marriage: Then and Now (Jacob and Leah)

This sermon series is looking at some Old Testament examples of marriages…and we are pulling Biblical truths from these stories…and applying what to do, and what NOT to do, to our marriages today!

Part one deals with the relationship of Jacob and Leah (and Rachel).  It teaches us a lesson about when relationships and marriages become an idol in the life of a believer…and where we can find true, lasting satisfaction.

This Week at Grace!

We are super-excited about everything that God has been doing at Grace!  Have you welcomed the newest members of our church family?

As the school year gets kicked off--we want to encourage and pray for all of our local teachers and staff! We also want to be a blessing: We will have a drawing for several gift cards (to help the teachers with their expenses starting the school year) and for one $100 gift card–and we will also be sponsoring that teacher’s class for the school year.

We will have a great meal and time of fellowship…please join us for this special time of encouragement!

All teachers, staff and their families are invited to join us!
Please RSVP here: http://www.gracepinson.org/teacherstaff-appreciation

Please be in serious prayer for our services this week…God has blessed us abundantly, and we do not want to take that for granted.  Invite your friends, family, and neighbors to join us–you will never know the eternal impact you could be having just by doing that!  Be a bringer!

Now is the time to share Jesus!

Love and Hate

In a world where there is so much animosity and anger… when a believer begins to manifest the love of God in his dealings with other people, there is a tremendous testimony to what Jesus Christ can do in a heart and in a life.  We are to live a life of love…in this world of hate!  John tells us how to do that.
