Pastors Mike and Todd continue our podcast series on the distinctives of GBC. These are further conversations on the sermon series we did this past summer (https://www.greshambible.org/sermons/series/gbc-distinctives). This is our sixth distinctive which reads:We seek to display God's heart for justice by pursuing gospel reconciliation across racial, economic, generational, and political divides. And by being a blessing to the “least of these” in our community: the immigrant, trafficked, poor, abused, overlooked, addicted, widowed; and especially to the unborn and the orphan. (Micah 6:8, Ephesians 2:11-20, Matthew 25:34-40)

Pastors Mike and Todd continue our podcast series on the distinctives of GBC. These are further conversations on the sermon series we did this past summer (https://www.greshambible.org/sermons/series/gbc-distinctives). This is our fifth distinctive which reads:We deeply believe that the church is a family and not an event we attend. Our Christian faith is personal, but it is never private. Our abiding in Jesus or lack thereof always has a ripple effect on the community at large. God has saved us into His family and our call is now to live out the "one another" commands in the New Testament for the glory of God. This distinctive is why we are committed to practicing meaningful church membership. This is also why we are relationally-driven in our practices. (Colossians 3:12-15, Hebrews 10:24-25)

In this sermon, Pastor Mike and Stephanie Burnette emphasize the importance of not placing our value solely on external appearance but instead focusing on cultivating inner qualities that are pleasing to God. They encourages us to consider what criteria we prioritize in relationships and encourage investment in traits outlined in Proverbs 31, such as trustworthiness, kindness, strength, faith, and diligence. By emphasizing inner beauty and character over external appearance, the sermon inspires us to pursue qualities that align with God's will for our lives.

Pastors Mike and Todd continue our podcast series on the distinctives of GBC. These are further conversations on the sermon series we did this past summer (https://www.greshambible.org/sermons/series/gbc-distinctives). This is our third distinctive which reads:Jesus consistently taught that His kingdom was utterly different than this world. He showed us how the least in the kingdom is the greatest; how the humble and broken are the ones who can enter; that those who humble themselves will be exalted and those who exalt themselves will be humbled. We recognize that this teaching can sound nice, but is completely against our original nature and the value systems of this world. But, we are committed to being a community that grows in humility as we witness the example of Christ's humility and experience the transforming benefits of His humility in the gospel (Philippians 2:1-11).

In the second installment of our “At the Table” series, Pastors Mike and Rachel teach us how to have freedom in our romantic relationships.

Pastors Mike and Todd, and producer Jordan get us ready for GBC's annual week of prayer and fasting which will be from February 19-25.

Pastors Mike and Todd continue our podcast series on the distinctives of GBC. These are further conversations on the sermon series we did this past summer (https://www.greshambible.org/sermons/series/gbc-distinctives). This is our third distinctive which reads:We are a gospel-centered church. The driving belief we have is that everyone needs the gospel, but that belief always begins with me (1 Timothy 1:15). Every believer needs the gospel on a moment by moment basis. We need to be reminded of God's grace, His unending love, and our new status before Him in Christ. Only when the gospel is truly good news to us, will we ever be positioned well to give it to others who desperately need it as well (1 Corinthians 15:1-6).

Pastors Mike and Todd preview the upcoming GBC EDU class, "Fearfully and Wonderfully Made." This class will begin on 1/21/2024 and will run for 7-8 weeks before church service from 9:00-9:45am. You can still register through our website.

Gresham Machen

Pastors Mike and Todd continue our podcast series on the distinctives of GBC. These are further conversations on the sermon series we did this past summer (https://www.greshambible.org/sermons/series/gbc-distinctives). This is our second distinctive which reads:We are a church that prays because we depend on God. Prayer is our shameless admission that we can do nothing without Him. Therefore, prayer is not merely a transition point in our lives and activities, nor is it the cherry on top; prayer is the beginning, middle, and end of our work. If we desire for God to work in ways that cannot be merely attributed to our efforts, then we must be a people on our knees (Ephesians 6:18, James 5:13, 1 John 5:14).Books mentioned:"Praying the Bible" by Donald Whitney"A Praying Church" by Paul Miller"Praying with Paul" by D.A. Caron"Prayer" by Tim Keller"The Valley of Vision" by Arthur Bennett

Pastors Mike and Todd begin a new podcast series on the distinctives of GBC. These are further conversations on the sermon series we did this past summer (https://www.greshambible.org/sermons/series/gbc-distinctives). This is our first distinctive which reads:We are committed to expository preaching because we deeply believe that what the Bible says about itself is true (2 Timothy 3:16-17; Hebrews 4:12). We believe that God's Word is the foundational way through which God works in the world (Isaiah 55:11). Therefore, Scripture is central in all of our ministries because it is our authority, our light, and brings life to all who receive it. Books mentioned:"Systematic Theology" by Wayne Grudem"The Doctrine of the Word of God" by John Frame"The Question of the Canon" by Michael Kruger"Canon Revisited" by Michael Kruger"How to Read the Bible For All Its Worth" by Gordon Fee and Douglas Stewart"Invitation to Biblical Interpretation" by Andreas Kostenberger"Expositional Preaching" by David Helm
