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.

The the idea that we could be believing God for something that could leave us looking embarrassed or foolish often plagues us and hinders our obedience trust. For someone to persist with some sort of an argument or some sort of abuse after their initial attack wears us out and can cause us to wonder if God has abandoned us. But Hebrews 6:18 (NLT) says…
FACES Grace Cares For Everyone

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!
