You may have noticed the two phrases here on this site and on our church sign that say: Learning to Know God…….Inviting the Community. We chose these phrases because they sum up what we are about. We are not talking about learning to know things about God. There are many things a person can know about God without knowing Him. We want to know Him and be transformed by that personal relationship. Jesus said, “If you had known me, you would have known my Father also.” (jn.14.7). It would not matter what Jesus said if He had not fulfilled all prophecy and risen from the grave on the third day. His death on the cross reconciles those who place their faith in Him, bringing them back from the broken relationship caused by sin. He cancels our debt of sin simply because of His grace when we turn from everything else in our life, and from trusting anything else, to trusting Him alone as our Lord and Savior. This is what Jesus called repentance. He gets the glory and credit for this. Even our faith is a gift from Him. This is the beginning of learning to know Him. We invite you to come along with us in this. Learn what it means to trust Him as Savior and join us in learning to know Him!

Although we have a picture of our church building on the blog header, we want to keep in mind that the church is not the building but the disciples of Jesus who make up the congregation. Grace Bible Church is a congregation where you will find encouragement to serve the Lord by using your God given gifts to serve the body and reach out into our community. Our goal is to be growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. If we can be of help to you please call upon us. We would be glad to meet with you for Bible study and help you get settled in at Grace as part of a small group where you can have fellowship with other believers and be challenged to grow in Christ. Of course, you are always welcome to join us in worship at 10:30 on the Lord’s Day – Sunday when we meet together for corporate worship.
God has greatly challenged and encouraged me through 1 Peter 4:10-11. I hope these verses will do the same for you:
As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies–in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
With prayer, Pastor Mark
