What comes to mind when you think about God?In this powerful sermon, we are invited to elevate our understanding of God's holiness by encountering the King Isaiah saw in Isaiah 6—a throne not at eye-level, but high and lifted up. This is the same King revealed in John 12: Jesus Christ. The one worshiped by angels in heaven, who arrives in humility on earth.He is not like us—He is set apart, utterly holy, and yet He draws near. Through Scripture, we trace the tension between transcendence and tenderness: a Holy King who humbles Himself to redeem sinful people.Come face-to-face with the glory of God—and leave with a deeper awe of grace.

Receive the King (Isaiah 9:6-7) - Pastor Brett Barton
Special Christmas Eve Message
Senior Pastor Damein Schitter continues our Advent series, Seeing Everyone Enjoy the King, preaching from Isaiah 65:17-25. Anchored in God's promises, Pastor Damein confronts the pitfalls of complacency and triumphalism in our pursuit of hope for the future. Complacency risks making us passive, while triumphalism tempts us to rely solely on human effort. Through inspiring examples of redemptive entrepreneurship and community-focused initiatives, Pastor Damein explains how a hope grounded in God's future work can inspire meaningful action today. His sermon emphasizes the call to align our efforts with God's values, fostering justice and love for our neighbors.Hope is more than just a comforting idea—it's a sustaining force, an unshakeable certainty rooted in Christ's work. With that in mind, Pastor Damein explains how biblical imagery and even pop culture, like the Hunger Games, highlights the power of hope to transcend fear and sustain us through life's challenges. He closes by inviting God's presence into both our joyous and sorrowful moments, preparing our hearts for the ultimate fulfillment of His promise.

This Sunday, we take a pause from going verse-by-verse through the Gospel of John. Instead, we walk through some of the Old Testament prophecies of the Savior's birth.

Meet Jesus #9 - Meet Jesus: The Saving King (Isaiah 53:1-6; Luke 22:7 - 23:49) by Trinity Church Victor Harbor
What is the mission of the church? According to the Bible, the mission of the church is to “make disciples of all nations” (Matt 28:19a) until “the earth [is] filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea” (Hab 2:14). That is the high calling upon each of our lives as followers of Jesus. But if I'm honest, sometimes I lose sight of the mission. In other words, I need fresh vision from God to engage in the mission of God. As Christians and as a church, it is possible to do what we're called to do but go through the motions. It is possible to serve the Lord but for all the wrong reasons. It is possible to do ministry and not have our priorities straight. When this happens, rather than seeking first Christ's kingdom (Matt 6:33), we seek first our kingdom. If we are not building Christ's church, we will try to build our own Tower of Babel (cf. Gen 11). If Christ is not our foundation (cf. 1 Cor 3:11), then we will build on shaky ground. But the Lord wants far more for us! As we move into the new year, I am convinced that we need a fresh vision that recalibrates and revives our hearts to fulfill Christ's mission until he returns. What vision are we talking about? According to Isaiah 6:1–13, we need to have an unforgettable encounter with a holy God through the gospel. When we truly get a glimpse of the majesty of God, we are never the same. The gospel according to Isaiah is this: when you see how holy God is, you will feel how sinful you are. But when you experience God's grace, you will know how loved you are. And when we encounter this majestic vision, it will propel us to go on mission. That is the vision and mission of our majestic King. In light of where we are going this Sunday, the services will look a little different. The message will take place toward the beginning of the service rather than toward the end. Kids will be dismissed to Sunday School just before the message during the second service. After the message, we will spend the rest of our time responding in worship together through singing, praying, and celebrating the Lord's Table. Who knows what the Lord will do? Would you pray? Ask God to pour out his Spirit, grant the gift of repentance, and give us personal and corporate revival, and give us boldness to make disciples of all nations near and far! In Christ, Gabe Zepeda

King Ahaz of Judah faced a crisis of faith when he was threatened with invasion by other nations. He trusted in human wisdom and power rather than in the LORD. Into this time of failure and the darkness that followed, Isaiah gave the great prophecy of the King who would come and rule forever. We have come to see that this King is Jesus. Let us be firm in our faith that he saves us from sin and will lead us by his light. Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God's grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.
