Great day at GCC today! It’s July, yet attendance is up! Great considering the following retweet of DL Moody I put out earlier, “Church attendance is as vital to a disciple as a transfusion of rich, healthy blood to a sick man.” (D.L. Moody) #stopdatingthechurch Next Monday morning at 6:15 am at Grace Community Church […]
READ MOREI returned this past weekend to GCC and our series through the book of Nehemiah called, “The Wall.” Even though I have taught through this book twice before—I am still amazed at how much more there is to learn from the greatest leadership book ever written! If you want to join us on our journey […]
READ MOREStarted a brand new series today—one of my favorite books of the Bible—Nehemiah. The Bible is the greatest book ever written, period. Why? Because, though penned by human authors, it is actually God breathed. In other words, God wrote it. Within this one book are actually 66 smaller books—each with eternal truths that even a […]
READ MOREI absolutely loved Sunday with my GCC Family! We wrapped up our short, two week mini series called, “Stop Dating the Church.” Jesus said in Matthew 16 that a church built on rock solid, biblical foundations would be so powerful that even the most wicked fortress or stronghold imaginable—even one ruled by Satan himself—even one […]
READ MOREProbably the hardest part of preaching is the ‘self-inflicted’ pressure we sometimes put on ourselves to move biblical precepts from people’s heads to their hearts where real life change can begin to happen. I know, I’ve slipped into this many times over the years with thoughts like… “If I just preach harder and with […]
READ MOREOne of the ministries I follow is called, “Voice of the Martyrs.” It’s an outreach and awareness ministry to help individuals and their families who are being persecuted, imprisoned, tortured and even killed for being followers of Jesus. The key word here is “followers.” Did you know that it’s perfectly fine to be a “fan” […]
READ MOREI’m still celebrating our new brothers and sisters in Christ who bent the knee to the Savior this past Easter at GCC! That, my friends, never gets old! And I wish I could say that heaven starts now for the new believer, but I would be doing a disservice at best. Though you have been […]
READ MOREOk, not much mystery here with such a picture leading up the post, but I hope you will indulge me for just a moment or two… Now that my family and I have spent a fun week at Disneyworld (Hey, you’re never too old to be a kid for a few days!) I can sort […]
READ MOREThis past weekend GCC had their first ever “Good Friday Service.” It was a moving time where 27 people gave their lives to Jesus! In fact, over the Easter weekend more than 120 people committed their lives to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior!! We also saw nearly 1,000 people attend our Easter services! It […]
READ MOREMost Christians know that this is the busiest time of year for churches. Easter is even bigger than Christmas, when it comes to church attendance. So, we always encourage our members to invite friends and family to visit, but we understand that it may not always be easy to do so. Just in case you […]
