Who we are
Welcome to Grace
Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ through worshiping, connecting, and serving.
We are a contemporary/modern church that lives outside the box...come join us and see!
What We Believe
WE ARE A UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
United Methodists share a common heritage with all Christians. According to our foundational statement of beliefs in The Book of Discipline, we share the following basic affirmations in common with all Christian communities:
Trinity We describe God in three persons. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are commonly used to refer to the threefold nature of God. Sometimes we use other terms, such as Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer.
God • We believe in one God, who created the world and all that is in it. • We believe that God is sovereign; that is, God is the ruler of the universe. • We believe that God is loving. We can experience God’s love and grace.
Jesus • We believe that Jesus was human. He lived as a man and died when he was crucified. • We believe that Jesus is divine. He is the Son of God. • We believe that God raised Jesus from the dead and that the risen Christ lives today. (Christ and messiah mean the same thing—God’s anointed.) • We believe that Jesus is our Savior. In Christ we receive abundant life and forgiveness of sins. We believe that Jesus is our Lord and that we are called to pattern our lives after his.
The Holy Spirit
• We believe that the Holy Spirit is God with us.
• We believe that the Holy Spirit comforts us when we are in need and convicts us when we stray from God. We believe that the Holy Spirit awakens us to God’s will and empowers us to live obediently.
Human Beings • We believe that God created human beings in God’s image. • We believe that humans can choose to accept or reject a relationship with God. • We believe that all humans need to be in relationship with God in order to be fully human.
The Church • We believe that the church is the body of Christ, an extension of Christ’s life and ministry in the world today. • We believe that the mission of the church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ. • We believe that the church is “the communion of saints,” a community made up of all past, present, and future disciples of Christ. • We believe that the church is called to worship God and to support those who participate in its life as they grow in faith.
The Bible
• We believe that the Bible is God’s Word.
• We believe that the Bible is the primary authority for our faith and practice.
• We believe that Christians need to know and study the Old Testament and the New Testament (the Hebrew Scriptures and the Christian Scriptures).
The Reign of God • We believe that the kingdom or reign of God is both a present reality and future hope. • We believe that wherever God’s will is done, the kingdom or reign of God is present. It was present in Jesus’ ministry, and it is also present in our world whenever persons and communities experience reconciliation, restoration, and healing. • We believe that although the fulfillment of God’s kingdom–the complete restoration of creation–is still to come. • We believe that the church is called to be both witness to the vision of what God’s kingdom will be like and a participant in helping to bring it to completion. • We believe that the reign of God is both personal and social. Personally, we display the kingdom of God as our hearts and minds are transformed and we become more Christ-like. Socially, God’s vision for the kingdom includes the restoration and transformation of all of creation.

I want to know Thee
Father, I want to know Thee, but my coward heart fears to give up its toys. I cannot part with them without inward bleeding, and I do not try to hide from Thee the terror of the parting. I come trembling, but I do come. Please root from my heart all those things which I have cherished so long and which have become a very part of my living self, so that Thou mayest enter and dwell there without a rival. Then shalt Thou make the place of Thy feet glorious. Then shall my heart have no need of the sun to shine in it, for Thyself wilt be the light of it, and there shall be no night there. In Jesus Name, Amen.
