Transformational Truth: Galatians (February - May)
Transformation is simply defined as the act or instance of transforming. In the letter of Galatians, Paul expresses one resounding truth, the grace of God has set us free! This freedom is a spiritual one, where we are no longer slaves of the law or our own works of righteousness. As a caterpillar transforms into a butterfly, so we who are free in Jesus experience a transformation from death into new life!
The Makings of a Church (January 8 - February 19)
Perhaps you've sat in a church service and during a particular part of the service you've asked the question, "Why do we do this?" That is the whole idea behind our sermon series, The Makings of a Church. True to the heart of every church lies the tradition of communion, baptism, tithing, membership, worship and missions. Over the next 6 weeks we will learn the significance and meaning behind these practices of the church. Not only will we discover why we do them, but why they matter in our walk with God.

The Mission: Finding CHRISTmas (November 27 - December 18)
GracePoint church will be going on an exciting mission this December, a mission to find CHRISTmas! We all know the excitement that comes with Christmas - family gatherings, turkey dinners, Christmas presents and chestnuts roasting on an open fire! As followers of Jesus, we will be spending an enormous amount of time this Christmas trying to find the right presents for our loved ones. But God invites us into a mission to find His Son. Join us this Advent season on a Biblical journey of finding the CHRIST inside of Christmas!

Divine Conversations
Prayer is a powerful and even mysterious aspect of a believer's relationship with God. We have been instructed by Jesus to pray; He has modeled for us how to pray; and we have seen the fruits of Jesus' prayer life. Over the next 3 weeks, we at GracePoint will be exploring the beauty of our divine conversations. We will be examining 3 great topics/questions: Does prayer really work? When God says NO! and Praying 101 (what prayer looks like in our daily lives). I want to encourage you to join us for this important series.
