We Choose

We Choose is our ministry plan—it provides a framework for our church to pursue spiritual health and advance God's Kingdom both within and outside of our local congregations. We believe our mission of making disciples is intertwined with serving our communities at home and the global church.

Speirō | Growing in Leadership

December 10, 2024

“You will always harvest what you plant.” These words from the apostle Paul in Galatians 6 are powerful—you reap what you sow. Speirō is the Greek word meaning “to sow,” and it represents our eight-month leadership program for young men and women in their early to mid-twenties.

Women at Grace Newsletter

December 3, 2024

Did you know our women’s ministry has a bi-monthly newsletter? The Women at Grace newsletter is written by a team of volunteers and staff members who take a big idea and explore it over the course of a year or more. Currently, they are working through the concept of choosing the truth over lies. In each newsletter, we look to Scripture, hear from some of our women, and take time to reflect and apply God’s Word to our lives.

New Men's Study | Present and Powerful

October 30, 2024

In a culture that tells men to step back and be less, we need clarity from Scripture about what it means to be men who follow Jesus without fear. God created men to be present and powerful, but because of distraction and fear, we drift towards absence and irrelevance. This new study challenges our men to step forward, disrupt with courage, and anchor themselves in God's promises.
