All our hope is in Jesus. We trust him for salvation, follow him as Lord, and live in union with him. Jesus is the cornerstone, and his chosen apostles laid the foundation of truth on which the household of God is built. Today, from Acts 1, we see what Jesus did to prepare his apostles before he ascended into heaven. We come to faith in Jesus and enter the kingdom of God through their witness of him.

The book of Acts opens with what Jesus began to do and teach while on earth. As it unfolds, we discover what Jesus continues to do on earth in these last days.

Today, we open the book of Acts to see Jesus reigning in heaven and ruling on earth. Someday we will see him in the new heavens and new earth. Until them, let us continue ...

Josh Hussung preaches from Philippians 2. In Philippians 2, Paul emphasizes the importance of unity among believers.

When local congregations reflect this same attitude by humbly serving one another, their unity brings glory to God and becomes a powerful witness to the transforming power of the Gospel. Grace Community Church exists to build...

This passage serves as a call to examine our hearts in light of God’s promises, to turn from anything that hinders fellowship with Christ and His church...

Wisdom shows us the snare of fearing people and the safety of trusting the Lord. Fearing people is one of our great struggles in life and it causes many problems. The solution to the fear of people is not found in ourselves, but in turning ourselves over to the Lord and to his care. By trusting in the Lord, the fear of man loses its grip on our hearts and becomes less directive of our steps. Today, may we grow in faith and become less fearful of others. Grace Community Church exists to build spi...
