FACES Strengthened like Steel
This is the final message this series. We tend to compare strength in terms of physical first. Often when we say we can’t, its because we think about supporting something in our own power. But today we want to consider strength from the perspective of being settled in our minds because of faith. Trusting God to do because we choose to believe He will! Because we accept that He is faithful to us and will be faithful to us.
FACES Grace Cares For Everyone
We continue our talks on the FACE of Grace (Forgive Accept Care Encourage Strength) today its’ although Grace cares for everyone God has a special care designed for His sons and daughters. Some would say that He cares “much more” for those who have received His love through Jesus Christ. Is it an elite class or is it just simply dependent on one’s faith? And if its so, what would be the purpose of a group getting more care tan any other? Jesus did pray differently…
FACES: grace accepts them all
In part two we hear jokingly about “a face only a mother could love” or I’ve heard that a baby is “so ugly their cute”. The truth is that Grace Accepts Them All! This week’s talk is about how God’s Grace is inclusive, freely extended to everyone, but not at the cost of His character. Inclusion for God the Father meant Calvary for Jesus and a cross for each of us!
FACES of Grace in Forgiveness
What does “FACES” stand for? It’s an acronym. Forgive, Accept, Care, Encourage, Strengthen. Our study over the next few weeks will be looking at each word’s importance to the believer, to us a gathered group of insiders and for those not yet gathered in gospel. What is forgiveness? What is the cost of forgiveness and who pays for it? Who can access it? What happens if we don’t share it?
iAsked God
I asked God. Is that statement, an exclamation or a question you’re never quite sure when you’re speaking to a casual friend. Partly because there is an eternal perspective about our lives that is not clear in the moment. And truthfully, we may only finally see once we’re with Jesus and all things are brought from their temporary conclusion to their final outcome in Him.
MindSet: When Hills and Valleys are Nets
In part two of our MindSet series, the repeated highs and lows that make up your life’s story are what God wants to use for His glory, your best and the saving of others. Maybe you feel that all is chaotic when you look at the total ups and downs in the present, but God is building a net of visual hope for those around you.

Mindset: I spy with my little eye
I spy with my little eye…Perspectives. What the eyes don’t see, the heart doesn’t desire! Is a translated saying from Brazilian Portuguese.
You Lead, I’ll Follow Part 4 Marriage: Let’s do it together
In this final week, Paula joins Mark as they wind up this series of talks by looking at the present and to the future…through the perspective of unity, the unity of heart, mind, emotions, will and most importantly the Holy Spirit.
You Lead, I’ll Follow – Part 3 – Of Ropes and Threads
“While your children are small you have then by a rope. Before they reach puberty, you will find that your rope has become a thread.” (Pastor Bob White) This weekend we examined our roles in parenting in light of the Gospel mandate to make disciples. We are all in love with our own opinions, convinced they’re correct. But the Lord is in the midst of us, testing and probing our every motive. Before you do anything, put your trust totally in…
You Lead, I’ll Follow – Part 1
If we look to the Throne, we’ll have the perspective needed for true success in our relationships. The key is looking at the masterpiece, what God is doing, rather than just the block of marble, where it is now.
