The Loving Response of Living Faith

James 2:14-17 James Chapter 2 is where we will be today. Today we’re going to be looking at one of the more well known texts in Scripture.

So for now, let me…

How to Grow Strong in Faith, Part 2

Luke 9:42-45 How to Grow Strong in the Faith, Part 2 Luke 9:42-45 April 21, 2019 All that is Grace Church is explained by the resurrection and the resurrection power.

Perfecting an Imperfect Faith, Part 1

Luke 8:40-48  We are coming into a section here at the end of Luke 8, if you’d like to turn in your Bibles there.  The section that really does wrap up the chapter, verses 40 to 56. We have seen in this eighth chapter of Luke some I, really what, what could we call them?  Dramatic displays of divine power in Jesus’ ministry.  We saw Jesus calm a storm at sea.  He commanded inanimate natural forces like wind and waves,…
