Message: Pastor Brian
“The Trouble with Grace”
Response of Faith: Our World Belongs to God 39
The church is a gathering of forgiven sinners called to be holy. Saved by the patient grace of God, we deal patiently with others and together confess our need for grace and forgiveness. Restored in Christ’s presence,
shaped by his life, this new community lives outthe ongoing story of God’s reconciling love, announces the new creation,
and works for a world of justice and peace.
