Make Grace Amazing Again


Hey Church Family! 


It has been such a joy to be able to work through the book of Titus with you these last few weeks. Thanks for pressing in, and chewing on this text with me. I've personally really enjoyed the study, but also the dialogue I've been able to share with many of you after the messages.


We wrap it all up this weekend focused on 2 texts in specific - if you want to read ahead they are: Titus 2:11-14 and then Titus 3:4-7. In fact, I'd encourage you to meditate on those 2 texts before we gather, read them carefully and intentionally. What we are going to see this weekend is that the ONLY thing that makes it possible for people like Cretans to change, or people like us to change, is the gospel and grace of Jesus Christ. It's all about the gospel, it's the gospel that transforms. And that gospel hope is still just as available to us today, as it was to the people of Crete a couple thousand years ago.


And when we see it (the gospel), and step into it, and give our lives towards it, everything changes, and people see the hope and beauty and majesty they have been searching for all along.


See you in church, or online, this weekend!

Online Ministry Enhancement

The public weekend gathering is no longer the front door - the digital presence and online experience of church is overwhelmingly our first point of connection with the spiritually curious, and an essential method for initiating and fostering discipling relationships within our congregation. Streaming online is more than a broadcast - it's a platform with which to nurture meaningful connections with online viewers.


The hybrid church is the new normal.


To help support this new normal, we are launching an Online Ministry Enhancement campaign. For more information please see spac.ca/online.
