We all know we should be grateful. But gratitude isn't always easy, especially when life doesn't go the way we hoped. So what does it really mean to be thankful? Is gratitude simply a response to good circumstances, or is it something deeper? In this series, we'll explore what the Bible teaches about gratitude and discover why learning to say “thank you” can transform the way we see everything.

Who am I? It’s one of the deepest questions we ask. Many of us spend years searching for the answer through achievement, approval, relationships, success, image, or by trying to leave our past behind. Yet even after all of it, something can still feel missing. Who Am I? is a series about discovering an identity that is secure, lasting, and unshakable.  Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years or are simply exploring who He is, this series is an invitation to discover the identity, purpose, and life you were made for.

At Grace, we are deeply committed to the next generation and passionate about helping the good news of Jesus be intentionally and relationally passed on to those who come after us. During this special service, we'll celebrate how God has been at work, renew our vision for investing in the next generation, and invite those God may be calling to join us in that mission.

We are all called by God to live on mission—not just a few of us, and not just our Christian leaders. Every person who calls themselves a Christian, every follower of Jesus Christ, has been given this calling. In Matthew 28, Jesus commands us to “go and make disciples of all nations.” This weekend, you’ll see how God is working through Grace MEC around the world and discover how each of us can be part of His mission and GO.

Each week in this series, we'll explore an attribute of God to better understand who He is—because without a clear picture of God, it's hard to fully trust, follow, or worship Him. As we discover what God is like, we also learn who we were created to be. This series will not only deepen our view of God, but also show us the path to restoring what's broken in us and in the world around us.

The culture of the Kingdom of God is a culture of honor—one that values, respects, and rightly responds to the people and authorities God has placed in our lives. Honor shapes our homes, strengthens our witness, and reflects the heart of Christ to the world.

The Gospel of John was written with a clear purpose: to awaken belief that leads to life. In this series, we'll walk through John's stories, signs, and teachings to discover what real faith looks like. Belief begins with a simple invitation—“Come and see”—and grows as we encounter Jesus in ordinary moments, wrestle with our doubts, and experience the transforming work of the Spirit. Along the way, we'll see Jesus break through barriers, meet us in seasons of grief, and call us to abide in Him. This is not just about a moment of faith, but a lifelong journey of trust, obedience, and hope in the risen Christ.

Join us for this message as we pause, look back, and reflect on all that God has done in our lives and in the life of our church in 2025.

We all long for a leader who won't let us down. History is full of people who started strong but ultimately fell short. Even Israel's greatest kings—Saul, David, and Solomon—couldn't give people what they most needed. Their lives were shadows pointing to something more. At Christmas, we celebrate that the true King has come. It's more than a sentimental story—it's the arrival of God's promised King. God gave us not just a baby in a manger, but a great King who will reign forever. This Christmas season, we'll celebrate the long-anticipated King who doesn't rise and fall but reigns forever, the King our souls long for. Let's prepare our hearts to welcome Him.
