Are You a Person of Grace?

I have been blessed to be a founding Pastor of an incredible church called Abundant Grace Fellowship. One of my most difficult jobs is to understand who we are, know what God has called us to be and do, and lead where God wants us to go. You have to have a shepherd's heart, and a leader's head.

God has brought us a long way in a relatively short time. I believe we are just beginning. Enjoy where we are but don't be afraid of change. Challenge yourself to do and give your best. We will walk by faith, trust God, and try to touch lives! If we do this, we will get to the finish line and bring many with us on the journey for the glory of God!


Grace is made up of:

• People who want to know!
• People who want to show!
• People who want to sow!
• People who want to serve!
• People who want to share!
• People who want to care!

This is who we are:
The core came seeking refuge where TRUTH was not compromised!
The core came seeking refuge where PEOPLE were not overlooked!
The core came seeking refuge where POWER was not abused!

People need to know TRUTH…we live in a world where truth is relative!
People need to know that CHRIST is the answer!
People need to know that all PROBLEMS have a spiritual root!

They want to belong!
They want their life to count!
They want to be used by God!
They want to follow Jesus Christ!
They want to be empowered by the Holy Spirit!

They need to know that our "God is Sovereign"!
They need to know that there is "Nobody like Jesus"!
They need to know that "The Holy Spirit is a Person", and He is God!

They need to know about false teachers, who have infiltrated the church!
They need to know they have a real enemy…Satan!
They need to know we will have trials…but fear not, Jesus has overcome them all!

They need to know how God worked in the OT and NT!
They need to know what are our priorities!
They need to know what is our purpose!
They need to know what are our values!
They need to know our vision!
They need to know they count!
They need to know they can make a difference!

They struggle with sin, money issues, relationships, trust, worry, envy, immorality, purpose, loneliness, parenting, and other life issues like everyone, and the bible addresses them!


They want to Know:

• HOW CAN I KNOW GOD!
• HOW CAN I BE SAVED!
• HOW CAN I GROW AS A BORN AGAIN BELIEVER!
• HOW CAN I SERVE GOD!

They need to Know:

• The love of God!
• The grace of God!
• The forgiveness of God!
• The wrath of God!
• The mercy of God!
• The goodness of God!

A person of Grace will submit their lives to the authority of the Word of God!
A person of Grace will surrender their will to the Will of God!
A person of Grace will surround themselves with people who live for the Glory of God!
