Simply ask the cashier to link Grace Chapel's number, 24071, to your Bashas' Thank You Card (or link it yourself at www.bashasshopandgive.com). Then, every time you shop and use your Thank You Card, our kids ministry earns money! Sign up now to maximize the earnings!

Even if you've linked your card to Grace Chapel in the past, you have to re-link it every year.

Pastor Speaking in Ecuador

Pastor Bladimir Gonzalez of Comunidad de Vida will be speaking at Grace Chapel on Sunday morning.

www.youngmarriedlife.com

From a press release:

The site is intended to function as a virtual small group for married couples, featuring a group blog, a forum and regular featured articles about the early years of marriage, career, finances, culture, and calling. A key topic on the site is preparing for parenting. Gen X and Gen Y couples are reporting a sharper drop in marital satisfaction when they become parents. Young Married Life will offer candid thoughts on the joys and challenges of starting a family with the hope of providing couples a smoother transition.
"We want to offer a supportive community to couples who might feel a little lost in their transition into marriage," said Steve Watters, director of Marriage and Parenting Preparation for Focus on the Family. "We especially want to help them realize that they aren't the only people who have fights about in-laws or how to load the dishwasher the right way."

Marriages are filled with chaos and confusion. The gospel paints a radical vision of marriage and declares an unwavering call to fight for marriages in our churches and city. Hear author Paul David Tripp speak on this gospel vision for marriage, from the 2009 Sojourn Counseling conference, The Gospel: Counseling And The Church.

This exercise was part of our Gospel-Centered Life class on Sunday.

Do you live more like an orphan or an adopted child of God?

THE ORPHAN
  • Lacks a vital daily intimacy with God
  • Anxious about friends, money, school, grades, etc.
  • Feels as if no one cares about you
  • Lives on a success/fail basis
  • Needs to look good
  • Has to fix your problems
  • Needs to be right
  • Is defensive when accused of error or weakness
  • Has a critical spirit (complaining and bitterness)

THE SON/DAUGHTER
  • Feels freed from worry because of God's love for you
  • Learning to live in daily partnership with God
  • Not fearful of God
  • Feels forgiven and totally accepted
  • A daily trust in God's sovereign plan for your life
  • Freedom from making a name for yourself
  • Able to examine your deeper motives
  • Open to criticism because you rest on Christ's perfection
  • Trusting less in self and more in the Holy Spirit
