- MAKING DISCIPLES LUNCHEON
We want to see all our groups that are making disciples flourish. This lunch is an opportunity to celebrate and provide fellowship, direction, and tools to help and serve all disciple-based groups at Grace. Who is invited? Anyone in a Disciple Group at Grace, as well as everyone in a Together Group at Grace (Inspire, Grace Moms, Men’s Groups, etc.). Also, we’d love to have anyone curious about joining or starting a disciple group. This is a once-a-quarter gathering to resource Disciple Makers at Grace.
The next luncheon is Sunday, September 15, at 12:15 p.m., in MTH B. Register HERE or contact Jordan Goodie for more details.
- FALL EPIC COURSE
We recognize everyone is on a journey to become a fully-formed disciple of Jesus Christ. Whether you have just begun this journey or have been a Christian your whole life, we want to meet you where you are. EPIC (Equipping People in Community) courses are one of the primary ways we seek to do that.
Get a Grip on the Bible Have you ever wondered how the different books of the Bible and stories fit together? Do you get confused by the prophets in the Old Testament or get lost in how the Old and New Testaments relate to each other? If so, you are not alone! Get a Grip on the Bible will take us through the Bible to help us answer those questions! This 12-week class walks through the redemption story from Creation to Revelation, chronicling the themes and major events of Biblical history. It helps you see how all of the teachings, stories, and writings in the Bible written long ago tell one coherent story. Dates: September 15 to December 1
Time: 11 a.m. to noon
Location: MTH A
Book cost: $15

GOOD NEWS OF THE WEEK
We celebrate the things that we have offered to God that are bearing fruit-- We celebrate what God is doing! Our annual night of student-led worship, Activate 2024, was a night to remember! Through worship, prayer, and reflection stations, we were called to go boldly and to activate our gifts within the walls of our schools, communities, and homes! We commissioned our students for the school year praying over their year as they share the gospel and their everyday lives with those around them. Watch the highlights HERE!
